In DrylandEcology/rSW2exter: Access External Data as Input for SOILWAT2 and STEPWAT2 Simulations

rSW2exter v0.3.0

• Functionality to download, query, and extract soils data from SOLUS100
  • depth_profile_SOLUS100(), variables_SOLUS100(), and filenames_SOLUS100() provide meta data.
  • download_SOLUS100() and check_SOLUS100() download and manage a local copy.
  • extract_soil_SOLUS100() (and bare-bones fetch_soils_from_SOLUS100()) extract soils data from a local copy.
• The "raster" package is now "suggested" (instead of "imported").

rSW2exter v0.2.2

• fetch_soils_from_NRCS_SDA() gains the ability to inject queries with multi-variable parameters. It gains two new arguments (with backwards compatible default values):
  • "bind_params" that replaces the deprecated argument "mukeys_unique"
  • "injection_format" that identifies the format string used to bind/inject values in parametrized queries
• fetch_soils_from_NRCS_SDA() now builds SQL queries consistently with single quotes.

rSW2exter v0.2.1

• fetch_mukeys_spatially_NRCS_SDA() now requires at least "soilDB" version 2.6.10 (and no longer supports "sp").
• Linting updated to lintr >= 3.1.

rSW2exter v0.2.0

• fetch_mukeys_spatially_NRCS_SDA() now handles versions of "soilDB" from 2.5.7 to at least 2.6.14.
• extract_soils_NRCS_SDA() queries include now localphase; this should improve the ability to identify a component of a soil map unit across NRCS data releases by a combination of compname, comppct_r, localphase.
• extract_soils_NRCS_SDA() gains argument only_soilcomp which excludes non-soil components, i.e., those that are not "Miscellaneous areas" and are not "NOTCOM" (not completed).
• Linting updated to lintr >= 3.0 and lint workflow switched from package tests to Github Action (#5).
