CACHING CHANGES

Caching has changed in finch. We changed to using package hoardr for managing caching. Now with hoardr on the package loading we create an object that holds methods and info about where to cache, with operating specific routes. In addition, you can set your own cache directory (and we do this in examples/tests using a temp dir instead of user dir).

The old functions dwca_cache_delete, dwca_cache_delete_all, dwca_cache_details, and dwca_cache_list are defunct and replaced with the single dwca_cache object. The dwca_cache object is an R6 object that has methods/functions and variables. See the ?dwca_cache and ?finch-defunct manual files for details.

BUG FIXES

  • fix to dwca_read(): ... wasn't being passed on to data.table::fread internally (#18) (#19) thanks @gustavobio !

MINOR IMPROVEMENTS

  • fix for failures on CRAN: don't write to user directory in examples/tests (#23)
