In cpsievert/XML2R: Easier XML Data Collection

XML2R 0.0.8

Updated maintainer email and various links.

XML2R 0.0.7

MAJOR FIX

• Local XML files are once again supported. See the local argument in XML2Obs/urlsToDocs.

MINOR CHANGES

• The async (asynchronous download) option was deprecated as httr:GET is now used instead of RCurl::getURL for more flexible http/https requests

XML2R 0.0.6

MINOR FIX

• In version 0.5, the url column does not contain the file name (instead, it contains integers). This has consequences for pitchRx, but is now fixed.

XML2R 0.0.5

MAJOR CHANGES/IMPROVEMENTS

• A dependency to RCurl was added so asynchronous downloads can be done via getURL. This dependency also has the benefit of more robust HTTP downloads.

XML2R 0.0.4

MAJOR CHANGES/IMPROVEMENTS

• The collapse() function was changed to collapse_obs() to avoid namespace clashing with dplyr's collapse().

• The child argument was removed from add_key(). The recycle argument was added to add_key() which allows one to use an existing value in the parent node as a key to connect the parent observation to its descendents (thanks Carlos Scheidegger)

• Better garbage collection

XML2R 0.0.3

IMPROVEMENTS

• url.map option was added to XML2Obs.

XML2R 0.0.2

MAJOR CHANGES

• Function rename() was changed to re_name() to avoid NAMESPACE issue conflicts with plyr.

MINOR FIXES

• quiet option added to several functions

XML2R 0.0.1

NEW FEATURES

• First version of XML2R. See the package tutorial

• This package was born out of an effort to abstract the functionality of pitchRx::urlsToDataFrame so that other projects can be built on top of this framework.
