Versioning

Releases will be numbered with the following semantic versioning format:

<major>.<minor>.<patch>

And constructed with the following guidelines:

• Breaking backward compatibility bumps the major (and resets the minor
  and patch)
• New additions without breaking backward compatibility bumps the minor
  (and resets the patch)
• Bug fixes and misc changes bumps the patch

textreadr 0.8.0 - 0.8.1

NEW FEATURES

• peek picks up a strings.left argument to align strings to the left. This
  is the default because this is a text reading package that deals primarily
  with strings.

• read_pdf picks up an ocr argument in order to properly handle image based
  ,pdf files in order to extract the text. For this task optical character
  recognition (OCR) is required. The tesseract package provides the backend
  for processing these types of .pdfs.

textreadr 0.6.0 - 0.7.0

BUG FIXES

• read_dir did not handle errored readins correctly resulting in an R error.

NEW FEATURES

• read_document picks up an explicit skip, remove.empty, and trim
  argument like the other read_ functions.

• read_rtf added to the document forms that can be parsed. This relies on the
  striprtf package as a backend. read_document and read_transcript pick
  up the ability to read rich text format as well.

MINOR FEATURES

• as_transcript added for coercion of internal strings to transcript. This
  function adds the ability to call out the person variable via a regex. For
  example one may split after all caps as the leading string.

• read_dir and read_dir_transcript pick up an ignore.case function for pattern.
  Pattern becomes more powerful in that it was moved outside of the dir command
  via a grep call.

textreadr 0.4.0 - 0.5.1

BUG FIXES

• The README.md called for ex_ functions from qdapRegex. This was the dev
  version of qdapRegex. This is now the CRAN version and now works for users.

NEW FEATURES

• read_html added for reading in the text from the body of .html documents.
  read_document inherits this ability as well.

MINOR FEATURES

• The low level read functions all now have consistent arguments: skip,
  remove.empty, & trim to make their use more interoperable.

IMPROVEMENTS

• textreadr no longer uses the antiword program directly, instead the
  R antiword package is called for read_doc. This makes installation across
  operating systems more standardized.

CHANGES

• The logo has been moved to tools to conform to CRAN standards.

• read_doc's argument format is now FALSE by default rather than TRUE to
  be consistent with the other read functions.

• read_docx no longer uses the XML package but now uses xml2 as
  suggested by Jeroen Ooms (see issue #7).

textreadr 0.3.1

NEW FEATURES

• read_dir_transcript added to complement read_dir aimed at a directory of
  transcripts.

textreadr 0.0.1 - 0.3.0

This package is a collection of convenience tools for reading text documents
into R.
