ExPanDaR 0.5.3.9000

Extensions:

• Added a save_settings_option to ExPanD() defaulting to TRUE so that users can start the app without the settings dialog at the bottom (issue #8)

Minor Issues:

• Switched back to lfe for prepare_regression_table() OLS regressions. lfeis back on CRAN and allows for multiple fixed effects and multi-level clustering. It is now being run with cmethod='reghdfe' to make clustered standard errors consistent with Stata's reghdfe

ExPanDaR 0.5.3

Bug fixes:

• Fixed bug that caused stargazer not to render plain OLS models

ExPanDaR 0.5.2

Extensions:

• Added a prepare_by_group_trend_graph() function to plot time trends by grouping variable

• Included grouped time trend plots in ExPanD()

Bug fixes:

• Fixed notebook code for sub sampling (failed on sampling variables containing NAs)

• Fixed a small issue in the Notebook generation code for the time trend and quantile trend chunks

• Fixed display of prepare_regression_table() for logit model by group tables with fixed effects

Minor Issues:

• Replaced lfe with plm package for fixed effect models as lfe has been removed from CRAN

• Removed wbstats from Suggests as it is currently not on CRAN

• Removed tidyquant package from Suggests as it depends on a package that requires R >= 3.5.0

• Spelling

ExPanDaR 0.5.1

Extensions:

• Added a vignette to explain the notebook export option of ExPanD() and the resulting notebook

Bug fixes:

• Fixed bug that stopped ExPanD() displays from rendering on user uploaded panel data

Minor Issues:

• Updated World Bank data

• Allowed ExPanD() to be called with ts_id == NULL and cs_id != NULL so that data frame variables can be specified as cross-sectional identifiers in the cross-sectional mode

• Removed some artefacts in cross-sectional mode where cross-sectional and time series identifiers were still provided as variable options in the ExPanD() app

• Included manual zip package import in NAMESPACE to make devtoools::check() happy on various CRAN systems

• Changed shinyapps.io URLs in vignettes to plain HTTP as win-builder seems to have an issue with the SSL handshake of shinyapps.io

ExPanDaR 0.5.0

Extensions:

• Modified ExPanD() to process cross-sectional data with useful defaults

• Implemented an export option that allows users to download a zip file containing the data and a R notebook based variant of the ExPanD analysis (export_nb_option = TRUE)

Minor issues:

• Added an option 'binary' to prepare_missing_values_graph() to visualize whether any values are missing

• Typo fixes

ExPanDaR 0.4.0

Extensions:

• Introduced html_block tag in components to allow users to add self-designed html content to ExPanD()

• Added sample_selection, subset_factor, grouping and udvars variables to components in ExPanD() so that these parts can also be re-arranged or omitted

• Allowed user defined variables to be built on analysis variables and used in simple_mode

• Added new vignette to explain new features

Bug fixes:

• Made Stata import more robust

• Fixed hover code in correlation and scatter plots to adjust for img_css_ratio

Minor issues:

• Removed non-ASCII characters from NAMESPACE

• Allowed more flexible handling of binary variables in ExPanD()

• Added additional examples to Github repository (not in package)

• Updated World Bank data

• Switched to openssl package (Thank you to Jeroen Ooms for the PR)

• Marginally improved error checking for config upload

ExPanDaR 0.3.0

Extensions:

• Removed the requirement for at least one non-numerical variable

• Added by group violin plot

• Included ! and is.na() as allowed functions for user defined variables

• Introduced the option to change the order of reported components and to exclude selected components

• Added clustered standard errors and fixed effects for logit models in prepare_regression_table()

• Implemented binary response logit models in ExPanD()

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a sorting bug in long variable definition construction

• Fixed a bug in ExPanD() extreme obs plot (was sorting on grouping variable)

Minor issues:

• Removed the dependency with the CodeDepends package

• Added rio package to the imports list

• Added packages used by ExPanD() to NAMESPACE to make CRAN checks happy

• UI cleanups

• Fixed the definition of oint_ta in r3 dataset

• Added a check to verify that ts_id is provided as an ordered vector

• Fixed a typo in worldbank_var_def

• Removed the drop_undersore parameter in prepare_regression_table() (no longer needed)

• Work-around for special characters in stargazer column.labels

• Marginally improved error handling for user provided data files

• Allowed treat_outliers() to route parameters through to stats::quantile() (needed for type parameter)

• Changed NA handling in prepare_graph type functions

ExPanDaR 0.2.0

• Initial version on CRAN
