Changes in version 2.34.0

Significant user-visible changes

  • getReport has been removed from the package.

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • Remove unnecessary imports e.g., from RCircos.

Changes in version 2.32.0

New features

  • The functions getCNGECorrelation, getDiffExpressedGenes, and getSurvival have been removed from the package.

Changes in version 2.30.0

New features

  • Include additional options for miRNASeqGeneType and RNAseq2Norm inputs, see ?getFirehoseData.
  • The functions getCNGECorrelation, getDiffExpressedGenes, and getSurvival have been defunct and will be removed from the package (see ?'RTCGAToolbox-defunct').
  • The RNAseq2Norm argument in getFirehoseData allows additional options: "RSEM_normalized_log2", "raw_counts", "scaled_estimate" from the 'preprocessed' tarballs in Firehose. The "normalized_counts" default remains.

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • getFirehoseData when used with the miRNASeqGene argument was downloading read counts data rather than RPM. This has been fixed with the miRNASeqGeneType argument. "read_count" and "cross-mapped" data are still available but must be entered explicitly in miRNASeqGeneType.

Changes in version 2.28.0

New features

  • Resolve disparate columns in mutation files from GBMLGG (@andreagrioni, #45)
  • Update codebase to download https resources from newer layout in <gdac.broadinstitute.org> (@biostars-nyc, #44).
  • Update makeSummarizedExperimentFromGISTIC interface with rownameCol input, type checking, and set row names when the are not duplicated.

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • Use cache directory obtained from tools::R_user_dir
  • Clean up class membership checks, e.g., with is(x, "classname")
  • Set missing rows to "" for downstream compatibility with SummarizedExperiment.

Changes in version 2.24.0

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • The deprecated functionality vignette moved to the vignettes/analysis/ folder

Changes in version 2.22.0

New features

  • makeSummarizedExperimentFromGISTIC transferred from TCGAutils

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • biocExtract now merges datasets from the same platforms
  • Re-worked and simplified getData method for FirehoseData and FirehoseGISTIC
  • Remove missing ranges when creating GRanges and GRangesList from DataFrame

Changes in version 2.20.0

New features

  • Added the RNASeq2Gene slot to the FirehoseData class. This data type mainly obtains RNASeq v2 raw_counts from the pipeline (scaled_estimates also available; @mherberg #39)
  • Added an accmini example dataset as obtained from getFirehoseData
  • getLinks function shows the user some file provenance based on data requested
  • Newly deprecated functions: getDiffExpressedGenes, getCNGECorrelation, getSurvival and getReport. It is no longer possible for the maintainer to update these functions in a way that would benefit users. A transfer of responsibility would be required, i.e. to another package.
  • Vignettes are updated to reflect changes in the codebase.

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • Improvements to internal functions for converting tabular data to Bioconductor classes
  • Missing (NA) seqnames are removed when converting to RaggedExperiment
  • Remove static file dependencies from GitHub and use text inside function (@DavisWeaver, #34)
  • Added default values to helper for making SummarizedExperiment datasets
  • Coerce sample names to character when in (the rare) case they're numeric
  • Added an ellipsis argument to biocExtract for specifying the names.field in tabular data that will correspond to the row names of a SummarizedExperiment

Changes in version 2.18.0

New features

  • Warning for Windows users added when file paths are too long
  • getGISTICPeaks now requires a FirehoseGISTIC data object obtained from getFirehoseData

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • Consolidate GISTIC data download methods in getFirehoseData and getGISTICPeaks
  • Increase robustness of internal helper functions that work with strands
  • 'TCGA' sample column identification is less strict

Changes in version 2.16.0

New features

  • RNASeq2GeneNorm slot in the FirehoseData class is a list now (from matrix)
  • Use tempdir() as the default directory for downloading data in getFirehoseData

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • Save all RNASeq2GeneNorm datasets within the output object as a list. Previously, only the last dataset would get returned (#30)
  • Read files from the appropriate download location in getFirehoseData
  • Move static text file references from 'canevolve.org' to GitHub hosted locations
  • Check file sizes using httr instead of 'canevolve.org' query (@mksamur, #32)

Changes in version 2.14.0

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • GISTIC data for SKCM and LAML is correctly returned by the getFirehoseData function
  • Helpers now correctly assign row names in presence of ranged data when using biocExtract

Changes in version 2.12.0

New features

  • biocExtract can now return GISTIC peak data as well with the 'GISTICP' option
  • Methylation data is now converted to DelayedArray and contained in SummarizedExperiment objects via biocExtract
  • Added an isEmpty method to the FirehoseGISTIC data class

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • Set default 'peak' argument to 'wide'
  • Functionality from the TCGAutils package is now employed such as findGRangesCols and uniformBuilds

Changes in version 2.9.41

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • Fixed bug where file rename was not working due to incorrect path location in getFirehoseData

Changes in version 2.9.40

New features

  • getBroadSubtypes and getGISTICPeaks now included in the package. Thanks to @lgeistlinger!
  • Updated import directives
  • Added peaks data slot to the FirehoseGISTIC class
  • Numerous improvements to internal helpers
  • Added a GISTIC argument to getFirehoseData

Changes in version 2.7.44

New features

  • selectType function replaces all previous data type extractor functions
  • getData improved, removed CN argument
  • Cleaner documentation for biocExtract

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  • Included helper functions for enabling full functionality of biocExtract
  • Added appropriate import directives
  • Re-organized documentation for readability

Changes in version 2.7.21

New features

  • biocExtract function now available - convert data objects to Bioconductor friendly data classes

Changes in version 2.7.21

New features

  • New maintainer for package
  • Updated API - see FirehoseData slots for changes
  • New extractor functions for slots of FirehoseData
  • Standardize argument names and slots
  • Export functions in package
  • Updated NAMESPACE

Bug fixes and minor improvements
