2022-10-11

Data

• Corrected coding mistakes with HUGGO and AIGGO datasets in 'agreements' database
• Corrected coding mistakes with HUGGO_MEM in 'memberships' database

manyenviron 0.2.0

2022-10-10

Package

• Added ´generate_agreements()´ function for programmatically creating random, fictional, environmental agreement titles

Data

• Closed #59 by dividing coded datasets into HUGGO and AIGGO

manyenviron 0.1.3

2022-08-16

• Re-exported treaty texts after standardising with manypkgs::standardise_treaty_text().
• Added accessionC and accessionP variables in GNEVAR dataset in agreements database using manypkgs::code_accession_terms(). These variables code the accession conditions (such as whether it is open to all states) and procedures (for example by majority voting) respectively that are stipulated in treaties for states acceding to a treaty.
