Version 2.1.1

New Features

• standardize() runs check_key() internally before attempting to standardize data with that key.
• check_key() now rejects “source” as a user-specified “tidy_name” in the data key. Necessary to reserve “source” for storing the file name in the standardized output.

Documentation & Testing

• Adds unit tests for check_key().
• Updates maintainer email.

Version 2.1.0

New Features

• standardize() warning message for columns found in key but not data is more succinct.

Documentation & Testing

• Updates affected units tests for ggplot2 version 4.0.0.

Version 2.0.0

Breaking Changes

• Deprecates make_json() due to loss of key dependency.

New Features

• check_key() ensures a column key is properly formatted to work with harmonize().
• standardize() uses the provided column key to standarize a single dataset (from a named list).
• harmonize() runs in approximately half the time for large (i.e., >5 MB) raw data files.

Version 1.2.0

• expand_key() generates rows for a column key for only those raw data files that are not already in an existing key or in an existing harmonized data table.

Version 1.1.0

New Features

• make_json() creates a JSON containing name/value pairs from a named vector. Optionally adds the JSON file name to the .gitignore if one is found in the working directory.
• solar_day_info() identifies sunrise, sunset, solar noon, and day length for all dates within a user-specified range at particular coordinates.
• harmonize() includes new defensive warning/error checks with informative messages for likely sources of error.

Documentation & Testing

• Unit tests added for all functions currently in package.

Version 1.0.0

• read() reads in all data files in a particular folder and stores them in a list.
• begin_key() creates the start of a “column key” for data harmonization.
• harmonize() performs column key-based harmonization of raw data.
• cv() calculates coefficient of variation for a vector of numbers.
• convert_temp() converts temperature values from one specified unit to another.
• site_timeline() creates a ggplot2-style timeline of all sites that meet the user-specified criteria.
