In ashiklom/metar: Add Metadata to your Data

metar 0.2.0

Breaking changes

• New API for setting metadata. Setting metadata for any object is now accomplished with add_metadata(obj, ...) or via a new assignment operator (metadata(obj) <- list(...)). The functions of the old add_metadata have been replaced with add_column_metadata.

New features

• Add write_csvy function for exporting data.frames with metadata to CSVY files.
• Add list2df function for converting lists to data.frames list columns where appropriate.

Bugfixes

• An additional type conversion step has been added to read_csvy, since fread will not actually respect colClasses if it thinks doing so will result in data loss. Mismatches in fread's guess and the specified classes will result in a warning that can be suppressed with verbose = FALSE.

metar 0.1.1

• Create basic utilities for adding metadata to data frames and reading and writing metadata-enhanced data frames to disk are functional.
• All CRAN checks are passing.
