frictionless (development version)

frictionless 1.0.2

CRAN release: 2022-11-16

  • Add skip_if_offline() to selected tests and verbosely include output in vignette examples, to avoid CRAN errors caused by timeouts (#116).

frictionless 1.0.1

CRAN release: 2022-09-08

  • Rebuild documentation for compatibility with HTML5 on request of CRAN.
  • Add funder information.

frictionless 1.0.0

CRAN release: 2022-02-16

frictionless 0.11.0

  • add_resource() now sets format, mediatype and encoding for added CSV file(s) (#78).
  • add_resource() now supports adding schema via path or URL.
  • write_package() now supports added data to be gzip compressed before being written to disk (#98).
  • read_resource() will now warn rather than error on unknown encoding (#86).
  • package objects no longer have or require the custom attribute resource_names, use new function resources() instead (#97).
  • package objects no longer have or require the custom attribute datapackage, making it easier to edit them as lists (with e.g. append()).

frictionless 0.10.0

  • add_resource() now supports adding CSV file(s) directly as a resource. This skips reading/handling by R and gives users control over path (#74).
  • CSV files in a remotely read package (like example_package) are now downloaded when writing with write_package(), rather than being skipped. This is more consistent with locally read packages. The behaviour for resources with a path containing URLs (only) and resources with data remains the same (no files are written). The write behaviour is better explained in the documentation (#77).
  • write_package() now silently returns the output rather than input package.
  • create_package() will set "profile" = "tabular-data-package" since packages created by frictionless meet those requirements (#81).
  • create_schema() interprets empty columns as string not boolean (#79).
  • read_package() can now read from a datapackage.yaml file.
  • read_resource() now accepts YAML Table Schemas and CSV dialects.
  • add_resource()/create_schema()’s df argument is renamed to data.
  • example_package’s observations resource now has URLs as path to serve as an example for that.

frictionless 0.9.0

  • Add vignette with overview of functionality (#60).
  • Prepare frictionless for rOpenSci submission.
