v0.1.2

jordan 0.1.2

Changes

• removes checks for stringsAsFactors option in quick_df()
• improves functionality of note
  • removes jordan.note.fun option for printing -- this was too complicated and doesn't seem to work too well without too many adjustments
  • note<- now appends the class noted to the object so that a print.noted method is dispatched so the note will be printed when called
  • print.note note defaults to a colorful message called with cat()
  • Startup related functions moved to jordanExtra; these were a bit wild, dynamic, and not well tested. The .Rprofile template also exists in the separate package.

Improvements

• match_param() now reports the value passed to param on failure
• improvements to handlers
  • adds has_message() and get_message()
  • internal rework of catch() for catching errors, messages, and warnings
  • has_*() now returns the result in the result attribute
  • print.has_catch() will hide attributes in print
• improvements/updates to todos()
  • allows text filtering by passing arguments to grep()
  • adds new print method for todos_df for viewing tasks
  • the result of todos() still has class data.frame but will now also have class todos_df
  • the print.todos_df() method should be make more sense for task management
• str_slice_by_word() no longer has a leading " " for each element after the first (this was not the intention of the split)
• is_file() and is_dir() now returns and error when passed NULL or a vector of length 0
• switch_params() now accepts a vector for x
  • ... examples updated
• adds param to change default column name from counts.data.frame() and props.data.frame()
• print() method called from todos() has a new format to group together multiple items found in a single file

New features

• adds print_c() to print a vector into a c() "string"
• adds diff_time functions
  • functions include diff_time() along with shortcuts for specific methods: diff_time_secs(), diff_time_days(), diff_time_years(), and others (see ?jordan::diff_time)
  • these are much like the base::difftime() but...
    • have more methods/units for computing differences, which may need to be the case for when a unit of time has to be standardized (e.g., 1 year needs to be 365 days, or 1 month needs to be 30 days)
    • are class diff_time and numeric
    • have a slightly different print method (will note appropriately how units of time are measures)
    • can account for timezone differences (must be set with a the tza and tzb parameters)
• adds sort_by()
• adds NA assignments:
  • NA_at() for position assignments
  • NA_if() for logical/conditional assignments
  • NA_in() for inclusive matching assignments
  • NA_out() for exclusive matching assignments
• adds functions for sourcing scripts into environments for later use (rscript(), save_source(), and source_to_env())
• adds switch_case() to return a values based on a left hand statement
  returning TRUE and switch_in_case() for evaluating x %in% left hand side
  • these functions are much like dplyr::case_when() but for specific cases
  • adds function checkOptions()
• adds recode_by() and recode_only() for a simple implementations of recoding elements in a vector
