v2.9: Several corrections and new features
Versions 2.5 to 2.8 were never released
- updated the list of collections
- solved an issue which was giving a 502 server error for large literatures (in the previous versions, the script tried to get the data with one single request -- up to 1000 hits; now it checks the date of the first and last hits and then gets the data in two-year intervals)
- added warnings for empty database
- add the option for latest years
- add the breakdown of papers by citations
- add other author-level metrics (i10-, g-, and m-indices)
- add the option for limiting the number of authors (the variable
authors_limitat line 153 can be modified but cannot be passed in the CLI) - moved from optparse (deprecated) to argparse
- change multiple conditional statements from if/elif to match/case
- count citations of citeable hits
