This is a maintenance release primarily intended to continue support for SPSS, Stata, and SAS files after the update of haven to v1.0.0. The issues addressed since last release are:

New features

  • Added support for importing from multi-table HTML files using the which argument. (#126)
  • Update import and export methods to use new xml2 for XML and HTML export. (#86)
  • Added support for export of .sas7bdat files via haven (#116)
  • Restored support for import from SPSS portable via haven (#116)
  • Improved behavior of import() and export() with respect to unrecognized file types. (#124, #125, h/t Jason Becker)
  • Attempt to recognize compressed but non-archived file formats (e.g., ".csv.gz"). (#123, h/t trevorld)

Minor notes

  • Added explicit tests of the S3 extension mechanism for .import() and .export().
  • Fix failing tests related to stricter variable name handling for Stata files in development version of haven. (#113, h/t Hadley Wickham)
  • Updated import methods to reflect changed formal argument names in haven. (#116)
  • Converted to roxygen2 documentation and made NEWS an explicit markdown file.
