naijR 0.6.1
- Added more function examples and other documentation improvements.
- Increased compression for internal data.
- Reflect new home on rOpenSci software repository.
naijR 0.6.0
CRAN release: 2023-08-08
New Features:
- Added a new dataset
states_nigeria
for the States of Nigeria. - Migrated from RGDAL-based spatial data; the sf package is now the main dependency.
-
map_ng
gained a newly documented argumentplot
, which hitherto was passed internally tomaps::map()
via...
. - Added a new function
disambiguate_lga
, which takes a single-elementlgas
object for handling the names of Local Government Areas that are shared between separate States. This function enables the (re)setting of theState
attribute of such objects; this can be done interactively, where the replicated States’ names are presented for selection by users.
naijR 0.5.2
CRAN release: 2023-06-14
- Quietened a verbose warning introduced via the soon-to-be-retired spatial data packages.
naijR 0.5.1
CRAN release: 2022-12-02
- In nested calls with the function
fix_region
, thelgas
constructor function does not warn if there are spelling mistakes, as this turned out to be a bit confusing when it was used. In earlier versions, warnings persisted even after fixes were applied. - In carrying out interactive fixes, particularly of LGA spellings, the more familiar and intuitive native Windows messaging and dialog system is used. Works only on Windows machines; on Linux and MacOs, the usual messaging and interaction occurs at the R console.
- Control the size of map labels with the
cex
argument (passed on tomaps::map.text
internally, via...
). - Handle instances where the term Abuja is used as a State (which technically it is not) and signal a warning to the user.
naijR 0.5.0
CRAN release: 2022-09-30
New features:
- New methods for
?InternalGenerics
were introduced e.g. forc()
,[
,[[
,na.exclude
, etc.
Enhancements:
- Effectively handle mobile numbers that have common separators in them, namely whitespace, ‘-’ or ‘.’.
- Repair mobile numbers where poor data entry interchanges zeros (
0
s) with the letterO
(works for both upper and lower case). - Repair of mobile numbers now offers optional information for users.
- Allow the use of factor input when creating objects of class
regions
. - Added a new argument
legend.text
formap_ng
using an idiom that is similar to the one used inbase::barplot
, thanks to observations made by @VictoriaLatham in issue #27. - Simplified the creation of choropleth maps with 2-column data frames; one of the columns is to be a vector of valid States or Local Government Areas, and the other a factor or something coercible to one.
naijR 0.4.1
- Enable the exclusion of selected States from a choropleth map (#27).
- Cleaner output for
states
andlgas
objects.
naijR 0.4.0
CRAN release: 2022-01-28
- Introduce the ability to ‘manually’ fix names of States or LGAs.
- Update the documentation with a new vignette.
naijR 0.3.3
CRAN release: 2021-11-05
- Fixed repetitions in the output when multiple LGAs’ spellings are corrected.
naijR 0.3.1
CRAN release: 2021-09-30
- Fixed a bug that affected the proper rendering of LGA-level maps for some of the States. The approach used was to simply filter the entire data when requiring a State map, so as to reduce name clashes that occurred from synonyms amongst some of the LGAs and/or States.
- Enabled the fine-tuning of creation of
lgas
objects in the event that the argument provided is the name of an LGA that is synonymous with it’s State (argumentstrict
).
naijR 0.3.0
CRAN release: 2021-09-08
- Provide new methods for the S3 generics
head
andtail
to work with objects that inherit from classregions
. - The S3 constructors
states
andlgas
gain a logical argumentwarn
to control whether or not they issue a warning when an input string does not contain an actual State/LGA. - General improvement of the formatting of output to enhance the user experience.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the loading of LGAs from the internal data when the package is not attached to the search path i.e. invocation with
naijR::lgas()
was producing an error.
naijR 0.2.0
- Added a new function
is_lga
, which checks an object for Local Government Areas. - Ignore, with a warning, the check for
is_state
when the object checked is not of typecharacter
. - Draw maps up to LGA level
