Another streamlined re-design following new abilities for data hosting and access. This release relies on a HuggingFace datasets hosting for data and metadata hosting in parquet and schema.org.
Data access is simplified to use the simple HuggingFace datasets API instead of the previous contentid-based resolution. This allows metadata to be defined with directly alongside the data platform independent of the R package.
A simplified access protocol relies on duckdbfs
for direct reads of tables.
Several functions previously used only to manage connections are now deprecated
or removed, along with a significant number of dependencies.
Core use still centers around the same package API using the fb_tbl()
function,
with legacy helper functions for common tables like species()
are still accessible and
can still optionally filter by species name where appropriate. As before, loading the
full tables and sub-setting manually is still recommended.
Historic helper functions like load_taxa()
(combining the taxonomic classification from Species,
Genus, Family and Order tables), validate_names()
, and common_to_sci()
and
sci_to_common()
should be in working order, all using table-based outputs.
duckdb

contentid
now a fallback method.duckdb
is upgraded or when multiple sessions attempt to access the directory. Remove the default
storage directory (given by db_dir()
) after upgrading duckdb if using a local copy. Note that with hash-archive.org
resolver is down, and software-heritage API has strict rate limits,
so direct URL access is preferable.

arkdb

as database backendvalidate_names()
has been rewritten [#170]diet_items()
[#158]v 3.0.0 accesses a new static API for fishbase
with in-memory
memoization that significantly improves performance, particularly
for large queries.
(not released to CRAN, rolled into 3.0 release)
validate_names()
(#121)faoareas()
(#123)genetics()
endpoint (#122)taxonomy()
endpoint (#126)dontrun
instead of \donttest
in the documentation. Apparently CRAN has decided to run donttest blocks in the examples, which can fail on their test servers when transferring data files over a network connection (which is why they were marked donttest
in the first place.)First official release of the new rfishbase package, a non-backwards compatible replacement to all earlier versions of FishBase. See the package vignette for a more detailed overview and introduction.
