gutenbergr 0.1.1

CRAN release: 2016-05-16

  • Transferred repo ownership to ropenscilabs
  • The license was changed from MIT to GPL-2. This is based on the realization that the catalog data is licensed under the GPL, and the package includes a processed version of the catalog data. (See here).
  • Updated datasets to 5/5/2016 and added a “date_updated” attribute to tell when they were last updated
  • Added all_languages and only_languages arguments to gutenberg_works, allowing fine-grained control of languages. (For example, “either English or French” or “both English and French”)
  • Changed get_gutenberg_mirror to use xml2 directly, in order to handle AppVeyor
  • Removed use of data() in gutenberg_works, since it slows down gutenberg_works about 2X
  • Various documentation, vignette, and README adjustments in response to ROpenSci feedback.
  • Added AppVeyor for Windows continuous integration
  • Added code coverage information through codecov.io and covr, along with tests to improve coverage
