In ncmeta: Straightforward 'NetCDF' Metadata

ncmeta 0.3.6

• Fixed namespace doc thanks to CRAN.

ncmeta 0.3.5

• Removed LazyData, unused.

• Extra info now provided by RNetCDF was causing non-nested data frame problems, fixed by PR from @mjwoods in #44 and #45.

• Changed default branch name to "main", so please check if you have a fork and submit PRs.

• Fix bug where Scalar variables were treated as an axis. Picked up in stars PR #399.

ncmeta 0.3.0

• Fix file path mangling introduced in #27.

ncmeta 0.2.5

• Improved equivalence test thanks to Romain Francois #37.

ncmeta 0.2.0

• Simplified error handling when file not able to be opened. https://github.com/ropensci/tidync/issues/98

• Fixed bug in nc_atts() https://github.com/hypertidy/ncmeta/issues/36.

ncmeta 0.1.0

• Extra checks and fixes to align with stars, and a future release of RNetCDF.

• Condition on version of tidyr for new nest() syntax > 0.8.3.

• The output of nc_atts() is now more consistent, with the same structure given for only global attributes, or a mix of variable attributes and global attributes. If there are no attributes at all the output has zero rows, but now has the correct column types.

ncmeta 0.0.4

• nc_grids() now normal form, with nested variables so we can easily link grids to variables.

• New functions nc_coord_var to find coordinate variables (if any), gm_to_prj to determine PROJ string in use, and nc_grid_mapping_atts to determine grid mapping parameters; #19, #14, #12, #9.

ncmeta 0.0.3

• Fix for grid organization providing variables out of native order.

• Added 'variable' argument to 'nc_atts', per #8.

ncmeta 0.0.2

• added some extra checks for bad source strings, particularly the empty string to prevent crashing (this happens with system.file() where the file does not exist)
• fix attribute types problem

ncmeta 0.0.1

*updates from CRAN feedback

• ncmeta now provides support for dimensions that do not have explicit coordinates: dimension and variable tables now have information about "dimvals", in the form of "dim_coord" and "coord_dim" i.e. if a variable is 1D and its name corresponds to a dimension name, then it is a rectlinear coordinate vector of that dimension. (The coordinates can be of type "char", and that must be dealt with down stream as it now is in tidync).

• new function nc_grids, the spaces available to variables

• new function nc_axes, nc_axis for the instances of dimensions

• nc_vars now returns only variables

• First working version.
