gutenbergr 0.2.4

New Version

• Update data scraping process to use R end-to-end (@jonthegeek, #36).

gutenbergr 0.2.3 (2022-12-13)

• minor patches for broken urls to comply with CRAN checks.

gutenbergr 0.2.2 (2022-12-03)

• Updated metadata (#32, #29)
• minor bug fixes and improvements, including removing broken url and updating documentation to comply with CRAN roxygen2 requirements (#30, #31, #35, #28).
• Changed maintainer (#30)

gutenbergr 0.2.0

• Changed to comply with CRAN policies for API packages. Tests that do connect to Project Gutenberg are skipped on CRAN, and are supplemented with tests that mock the connection.
• Added gutenberg_languages dataset with one-row-per-language-per-work, which substantially speeds up gutenberg_works.
• This adds a files argument to gutenberg_download that is generally used only for testing.
• Made changes to work with dplyr 1.0.0, removing filter_ and distinct_.
• Fixed links to https

gutenbergr 0.1.5

• Make compatible with tidyr v1.0.0
• data_frame is deprecated, use tibble (thanks @evanodell for #21)
• ROpenSci updates to README (thanks @maelle for #23)

gutenbergr 0.1.4

• Added curl to SUGGESTS, since if it's not installed readr::read_lines could fail

gutenbergr 0.1.3

• The Project Gutenberg mirror in Maryland Public Libraries (http://www.gutenberg.lib.md.us) has been broken for months. When it is provided from robot/harvest, replaces with http://aleph.gutenberg.org.
• Changed test of .zip capability not to run on CRAN
• Removed rvest dependency

gutenbergr 0.1.2

• Made compatible with change to distinct in dplyr 0.5 (which is about to be submitted to CRAN)
• Removed xml2 dependency

gutenbergr 0.1.1

• Transferred repo ownership to ropenscilabs
• The license was changed from MIT to GPL-2. This is based on the realization that the catalog data is licensed under the GPL, and the package includes a processed version of the catalog data. (See here).
• Updated datasets to 5/5/2016 and added a "date_updated" attribute to tell when they were last updated
• Added all_languages and only_languages arguments to gutenberg_works, allowing fine-grained control of languages. (For example, "either English or French" or "both English and French")
• Changed get_gutenberg_mirror to use xml2 directly, in order to handle AppVeyor
• Removed use of data() in gutenberg_works, since it slows down gutenberg_works about 2X
• Various documentation, vignette, and README adjustments in response to ROpenSci feedback.
• Added AppVeyor for Windows continuous integration
• Added code coverage information through codecov.io and covr, along with tests to improve coverage

gutenbergr 0.1

• First version of package, including
• gutenberg_download function, for downloading one or more works from Project Gutenberg using Gutenberg IDs
• Datasets of Project Gutenberg metadata: gutenberg_metadata, gutenberg_subjects, gutenberg_authors
• gutenberg_works function to retrieve filtered version of gutenberg_metadata
• Introductory vignette including basic examples of downloading books
• Unit tests for gutenberg_download and gutenberg_works
• Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.
