v0.2.99

  • I removed most of the functionality from the package. I think only stale_package_check() and get_age() have gotten any real downstream usage aside from my own; the few functions I kept are those that I actually continue to use myself with any regularity, or which I think it's worth having written down to save re-inventing the wheel for functions only needed rarely.

    I tried looking around GitHub for existing users, but if this affects you, please don't hesitate to file a FR and I can restore anything deleted too hastily.

  • stale_package_check() is also deprecated. Prefer using lintr::unused_import_linter() instead. {lintr} will have better maintenance, reliability, and correctness.

  • get_age() got some substantial improvements.

    • Gives the right age in some cases, e.g. 7 1/366 years for someone born Dec. 22, 2024 as of Dec. 23, 2031 (#23). Accuracy is now confirmed for a full grid of >2 million possible birthday, age combinations.
    • Implementation is improved for about 2x speed-up. This was in service of making the implementation friendlier for static translation to other execution engines (in particular {arrow}, #18). Thanks @TPDeramus for the request and @jonkeane for consulting on acero particulars.
    • Input not required to be Date as long as as.Date() succeeds, for convenience in quick examples like get_age('2003-02-04', '2008-12-30').
    • Supports recycling of one length-1 input and handles missing values in either argument.

v0.2.2

  • Fix a minor issue where getNamespaceExports() returns objects in unspecified order (#13)

v0.2.0

  • Overhaul of stale_package_check to use the abstract syntax tree (AST) instead of regular expressions to detect unused packages. This approach should be much more comprehensive & reliable for 99% of use cases. Please file an issue if you'd like support for any of the remaining cases.

  • Removed some functions that were convenient only to a younger/more inexperienced self:

    • D - as.Date wrapper, masks stats::D, and is not the most readable
    • table2 - table wrapper, mainly I was using it for what sort(table()) can accomplish
    • %+% - string concatentation. just get used to paste/paste0 folks.
    • rel_coord - for naming coordinates relatively (e.g. 20% of the way on the x-axis). was a bit simplistic & not too hard to just do manually (I rarely use it). Better would be something like ggrepel which is what this was really trying to do.

  • Structured the repo more like a "modern" R package -- added tests (via testthat), CI (via GitHub Actions), and this NEWS.md file!

[No NEWS was tracked prior to 0.2.0... sorry!]
