In scribe: Command Argument Parsing

scribe 0.3.0

Breaking changes

• $convert field now defaults to the newly exported scribe_convert() helper
• This selects one of three conversions: 1) default (see next bullet), 2) string evaluation, and 3) no conversion.
• default conversions use value_convert(), which internally uses utils::type.convert() (and some additional steps for dates. Be aware that type.convert("1", as.is = TRUE) will return integers, and a decimal should be included if a numeric is desired (e.g., type.convert("1.", as.is = TRUE)
• previously, a prototype could be set (e.g., convert = character()), which will now fail but can be replaced with a simple function (e.g., convert = as.character).

Bug fixes

• convert is no longer ignored when set in scribeArg #70

New features

• flag action now accepts NA as a default #67

Non-user facing changes

• GitHub workflow added to maintain version bumps on merge jmbarbone/actions/r-check-version

scribe 0.2.0

Fixes

• --help no longer fails when scribeArg has length(info) > 1 #59

New features

• execute is a new field for scribeArg where a function can be called #63
• stop is a new field for scribeArg which controls how further arguments are parsed and allows for early stops #60
• options() for {scribe} are now listed in ?scribe documentation and set in .onAttach() #57
• scribeArgs can now be given a separate scribeArg as a default #54
• positional arguments now can have default values #52
• scribeArgs with action = 'flag' now accept default = TRUE #55 and (when option no = TRUE) can also accept NA #67

Breaking

• scribeArgs with action = "flag" will now throw an error instead of a warning when default is not logical(1) #68
