In databraryr: Interact with the 'Databrary.org' API

databraryr 0.6.6

Major changes

• Incorporated package-wide option management using the {options} package.
• Added obligatory message when access to an internet resource fails. This responds to the 2024-07-04 archiving of the previous version due to a violation of CRAN's policy on packages that access internet resources.

Minor changes

• Removed superceded and deprecated functions: list_affiliate(), GET_db_contents(), download_party(), get_party_as_df(), list_individual_sponsors(), list_institutional_sponsors(), list_party(), list_people(), list_sessions(), list_volume(), list_sessions_in_volume()
• list_volume_sessions() returns text label for release level.

• Improved error handling in many functions.

databraryr 0.6.4

Major changes

• New download_session_assets_fr_df() function that supports piping syntax.

• Fixed bug in get_db_stats() that did not return valid data except for summary statistics.

Minor changes

databraryr 0.6.2

databraryr 0.6.1

Major changes

• In testing 0.6.0, several users with installed versions of R before 4.0.1 could not use the package because of its dependency on the native (|>) pipe operator. This version reverts to using the magrittr pipe (%>%).

Major changes

• Implement httr2 functions throughout.
• New make_default_request() and make_login_client() functions to pave the way for future data uploads.

• Reduce redundant calls to Databrary API and better filtering of responses.
