admiraldev 1.2.0

CRAN release: 2025-01-15

New Features

New Function deprecate_inform() is a wrapper around lifecycle::deprecate_soft() to allow for more control over messaging. (#466)

Updates of Existing Functions

Objects passed to assert_list_element() via the ... argument can now be used in the glue expression specified for the message_text argument. (#469)
The required_unit argument of assert_unit() has been enhanced. It is now possible to specify more than one unit or not specify it at all. In the latter case only the uniqueness of the unit is checked. (#468)
The assert_numeric_vector() function gained an optional length argument to check whether the vector has a specific length. (#473)

Breaking Changes

admiraldev is only compatible with R version >=4.1 (#456)
The following function arguments are entering the next phase of the deprecation process: (#459)

Phase 1 (message)

No functions or arguments in this Phase

Phase 2 (warning)

No functions or arguments in this Phase

Phase 3 (error)

No functions or arguments in this Phase

Phase 4 (removed)
- The argument quosures was removed in the functions vars2chr(quosures), replace_values_by_names(quosures), and get_source_vars(quosures)
- Removed at v1.0.0 assert_named_expr()
- Removed at v1.0.0 assert_has_variables()
- Removed at v1.0.0 assert_function_param()

Documentation

Deprecation Strategy updated for the long haul! (#466)

devcontainer files removed (#480)

admiraldev 1.1.0

CRAN release: 2024-06-06

Updates of Existing Functions

Updated arg_name parameter in assert_filter_cond, assert_symbol, and assert_expr with gsub("^enexpr\$(\\w+)\$$", "\\1", rlang::caller_arg(arg)) argument so that error messages return a quoted argument without enexpr(), e.g. filter_add instead of enexpr(filter_add). (#2404)
Error messaging throughout the package have been updated from rlang::abort() to cli::cli_abort(). As a part of the update, each of the assert_*() functions have new arguments assert_*(message, arg_name, call, class). (#367)
Warning messaging has also been updated to use cli messaging.

Breaking Changes

renv and related files have been removed. (#360)
No longer exporting is_named() function. (#401)
pharmaversesdtm removed as a dependency. (#434)
As a part of the error messaging update, the following changes were made.
- The assert_s3_class(class) argument has been renamed to assert_s3_class(cls). (#367)
- Functions arg_name(), enumerate(), what_is_it(), and friendly_type_of() have been deprecated and a warning is returned to any developer using these functions. As these are developer functions (as opposed to functions for typical admiral users), we will use a short deprecation cycle.

Documentation

The “Release Strategy” vignette was updated with respect to the new branching strategy. (#353)
The “Release Strategy” vignette now contains a short new “Release Tracking” section linking to an external dashboard for CRAN packages that are awaiting release. (#358)

Other

Removed dependencies not needed to build package or package documentation. (#426)
Increased minimum R version required to 4.0 to match {admiral}. (#382)

New Features

New function process_set_values_to() for creating the variables specified by the set_value_to argument and catching errors (#70)

Fix datatable styling for documentation (#197)
The assert_character_vector() function gained a named argument to check that all elements of the vector are named. (#70)

Breaking Changes

The default value of the optional argument in assert_date_vector(), assert_list_of(), and assert_s3_class() was changed from TRUE to FALSE to make the default behavior consistent. (#87)
admiral functions no longer expect list of quosures created by vars() but list of expressions created by exprs(). Thus the following functions and arguments were deprecated:
