In contentid: An Interface for Content-Based Identifiers

contentid 0.0.19

• Patch parsing for further changes to Zenodo API
• handle un-padded base64 from ni:// standard safely (for openssl 4.0)

contentid 0.0.18

• Patch parsing for new Zenodo API

contentid 0.0.17

• bugfix for Zenodo resolver to search all versions

• bugfix for local cache / content store handling of hashes other than SHA-256

• software heritage is no longer a default registry. SWH imposes rate limiting of 120 calls, and so should not be pinged if not expected as a registry.

• a new function, swh_ratelimit(), can show the remaining available calls and the remaining time until rate limit is incremented (rate limit resets gradually.) Users may use this new function when explicitly working against the SWH API to program their own retry attempts appropriately.

• purge_cache() behavior improved.

contentid 0.0.16

• official hash-archive is offline and no longer a default source.

contentid 0.0.15

• minor performance-enhancements to resolve()

contentid 0.0.14

• all donttest examples set temporary storage instead of trusting that CRAN is setting R_USER_DATA_DIR for tools::R_user_dir() to an appropriate setting for running donttest examples.
• Include an additional hash-archive-like registry in default_registries() (https://hash-archive.carlboettiger.info)
• default_registries() is now an exported function.

• Some edits for robustness: tsv-backed registries disable vroom altrep, (which can create file-lock issues on Windows. Even though altrep reading can provide significant speed improvements in this context with a large local registry, using LMDB for that case will still be much faster.)

• Minor adjustments to some function names:

• query_sources() is now renamed sources()
• query_history() is renamed history_url()
• query, query_sources(), and `query_history() still present but flagged for deprecation
• pin still present but marked for deprecation

contentid 0.0.12

• add purge_cache() to easily free space used by contentid

contentid 0.0.11

contentid 0.0.8

• check for vroom quietly

contentid 0.0.7

• support vector inputs for store() and retrieve()
• add intro vignette from README
• content_id() now returns a chr vector instead of a data.frame unless multiple algos are requested.

contentid 0.0.6

• Solaris has issues with LMDB size apparently

contentid 0.0.5

• Avoid erroneously failures on CRAN during to network connectivity issues on CRAN machines
