zmisc 0.3.0

New features

• Adds argument check functions, chk_*(). The family covers the atomic types in both scalar and vector form (chk_string(), chk_character(), chk_number(), and so on), lists and composite objects (chk_list(), chk_data_frame(), chk_tibble(), …), classes and arbitrary conditions (chk_class(), chk_true(), chk_that()), and chk_any() for a requirement that any one of several checks may satisfy. See vignette("chk"), and ?chk_atomic, ?chk_composite and ?chk_other.

• Adds glue_vector(), which applies a glue template element-wise to a vector. glue() and glue_data() are re-exported alongside it.

• Adds asciify(), which transliterates accented characters to ASCII.

• Adds yencode() and ydecode(), which encode strings into a restricted character set and back.

• Fixes NOTE regarding pipes and dependency on R 4.1.

Breaking changes

• In lookup() and lookuper(), the default argument is renamed to .default and follows ..., so it must be named. Calls that pass default by name or by position now raise an error.

• lookup() no longer accepts factors, either as x or as columns of the lookup table. Previously, a factor x had its levels looked up. Use levels(x) <- lookup(levels(x), lookup_table) for that behavior.

• zingle() no longer has an na.rm argument. Missing values are handled by na.ok.partial, na.ok.all and empty.ok instead. The closest equivalent of na.rm = TRUE is na.ok.partial = TRUE, na.ok.all = TRUE, empty.ok = TRUE, except that NaN now counts as a value rather than as missing. An empty vector is now an error unless empty.ok = TRUE; previously it returned NA.

• ll_assert_labelled() is renamed to ll_chk_labelled(), following the chk_ naming used for the new check functions. The old name is removed.

Bug fixes and behavior changes

• Various fixes and improvements to zeq(), zample() and zingle().

• wrap_error() now honors its wrap argument correctly.

zmisc 0.2.3
