gssr 0.5

  • Split gssr into two packages: {gssr} (the data sets) and {gssrdoc} (the integrated documentation). Rationale: The goal of this version of the package is to allow for binary installs via R-Universe. A binary package allows for faster installation, which matters here because {gssr} is a large package. Given the current resource limits of the GitHub runners that build packages, R-Universe can't build {gssr} with all the documentation. So I am experimenting with splitting it into two packages: {gssr}, which contains the data and the gss_get_yr() function, and {gssrdoc}, which integrates the GSS codebook into R's help system. It includes the gss_dict object and the panel documentation object gss_panel_doc. I recommend you install both packages.

gssr 0.4.5

  • Add get_which_ballots() function to return tibble of ballots a question appeared on.
  • Add var_ballots list column to gss_dict object, indicating the distribution of answers across ballots for each Q.
  • gssr now passes R CMD check with no ERRORS or WARNINGS
  • Fix vars with text like [NAME] and [PROMPT] so they do not try to autolink in Rd build process.

gssr 0.4.4

  • Fix Rd files that were preventing the PDF version of the docs from building.

gssr 0.4.3

  • Further small fixes; bump min R version to 4.0.0

gssr 0.4.2

  • Update gss_all to Release 2a of the 1972-2022 Cumulative Data File (January 2024)
  • Update the documentation to Release 2a also.

gssr 0.4.1

  • Fix for 2022 and 2021 download years. Should be working again now.

gssr 0.4

  • Added the latest cumulative file (1972-2022) and the latest panel data (2020, release 1a).
  • Integrated help: every variable in the cumulative file has an R manual page (like a function would). You can browse the pages in the help viewer or query variables by name from the console with ?, as you would with any documented object or function.
  • gss_get_yr() can now fetch the 2022 cross-sectional file
  • gss_get_yr() now correctly downloads the 2021 crossectional file
  • Removed gss_get_marginals() and gss_get_props() as these are largely superseded by the new built-in variable documentation.
  • gss_dict incorporates additional information.

gssr 0.3.5

  • Added gss_dict as an alternative way of looking at the documentation.

gssr 0.3.5

  • gss_get_years() has been renamed to gss_which_years() to make it less confusingly similar to the gss_get_yr() function. The former looks to see when a question was asked. The latter pulls a given year's dataset from the GSS website.

  • Update the base URL in gss_get_yr(). Thanks to (@lindsaypoirier.)

gssr 0.3.4

  • gss_all now includes the 2021 data release imported from the GSS 1972-2021 Cross-Sectional Cumulative Data (Release 1, Nov. 1, 2021). The documentation tibble does not yet include the 2021 variables.

gssr 0.3.3

  • New gss_get_yr function to fetch a specific GSS survey year's data.

gssr 0.3.2

  • In gss_all retain STATA missing codes for IAP, Can't choose, and DK. (Thanks to @dustinstolz.)

gssr 0.3.1

  • The panel documentation tibble, gss_panel_doc, has been updated to a wide format that makes it easier to browse the variables.

gssr 0.2.1

  • Moved from Travis CI to GitHub Actions for build testing.
  • Minor warnings resolved.

gssr 0.2.0

gssr 0.1.0

  • Prepped for initial release

gssr 0.0.0.9000

  • Fixed errors in the panel tibbles; removed panelr depenedency; added all three-wave panels
  • Wrote a short vignette giving an overview of the package.
  • Cumulative Data File and Three Wave Panel Data added.
  • Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.
