There were no ERRORs or WARNINGs or NOTEs.

Changes from version 0.2.1

  • Redundancies removed from package title
  • Implement timeout and retry for API requests to remote servers
  • Reduced number of vignettes to be generated during package build--putting them online on an accompanying package website instead.

Changes from version 0.2.2

  • Correct problem with incorrect encoding

Changes from version 0.2.3

  • Fixes issues arising from StatCan changing their API
  • Adds some post-processing options in normalize_cansim_values

Changes from version 0.3.0

  • Fixes issues arising from StatCan changing their API row limit
  • Optimize vector retrieval by REF_DATE

Changes from version 0.3.1

  • Adjust package for changes in StatCan API with different metadata format

Changes from version 0.3.2

  • Fix time zone problem when parsing and formatting times for the StatCan API

Changes from version 0.3.3

  • Expand get_cansim_table_notes functionality
  • Add functionality to access the new cube list API

Changes from version 0.3.4

  • Exclude all vignettes and example code from compilation as this may cause CRAN check errors when StatCan servers are down or otherwise temporarily unavailable

Changes from version 0.3.5

  • Fold part of normalize_cansim_values into the default table and vector output, in particular always add a scaled variable column called val_norm and an imputed Date column and covert categories to factors by default.
  • New get_cansim_sqlite function that stores tables in an SQLite database and facilitates access and managemet of data.
  • Adapt to changes in dplyr, tidyr, and tibble

  • Fix problem with UTF-8 encoding on solaris
  • move dbplyr dependence from Imports to Suggests

Changes from version 0.3.7

Minor changes

  • Exclude vignette from automatic CRAN checks to fix problem of CRAN checks failing when StatCan servers are down and lead to the package being removed from CRAN (checks are still active in local environment and when using GitHub action checks)
  • add release date info to cube metadata and cube list calls
  • add auto-refresh option for sqlite tables
  • remove deprecated adjust_cansim_values_by_variable function

Changes from version 0.3.8

Major changes

  • deprecate list_cansim_tables and serach_cansim_tables and fallback to corresponding "_cube" methods as Open Data Canada API has changed and similar functionality is available through the "_cube" methods that tie directly into StatCan APIs
  • change \donttest to \dontrun in examples to exclude examples that make API calls running (and occasionally failing) on CRAN

Minor changes

  • Fix issues with top level duplicate categories
  • Check for expired tables in list_cansim_sqlite_cached_tables
  • New auto-update feature for sqlite tables

Changes from version 0.3.9

  • fix problem with reading French tables released by the census division
  • restore original column order after converting to factors
  • convery geography column to factor if available
  • fix problem with add_provincial_abbreviations that could lead to mislabelling of provinces in some cases
  • improve handling of metadata, enable downloading only metadata instead of only via full table download
  • fold metadata into data when accessing via vector or coordinates
  • allow for cansim vectors in view_cansim_webpage to view vector information from statcan in the browser
