Changes in version 0.5.2.9000 Changes in version 0.5.2 (2026-02-07) - Removed dependency on leaflet.extras, using leaflet::addControl() instead of leaflet.extras::addWMSLegend() for WMS legend display (#364). Changes in version 0.5.1 (2025-03-26) - Fix bugs where bcdc_search_facets(), bcdc_list_group_records() and bcdc_list_organization_records() were not returning all records after the upgrade to CKAN 2.9 (#353). Includes adding tests and bcdata-specific options for these queries, see bcdc_options(). - Added examples of partial query using %like% and %in% in bcdc_query_geodata() (#356, thanks @bevingtona). Changes in version 0.5.0 (2024-12-12) - Make functions more robust to non-functioning WMS/WFS GetCapabilities requests (#339, #341). - dbplyr 2.5.0 has made the requirement for using !! or local() for local functions more restrictive; updated tests and examples (#341). - Deprecate the bcdata.single_download_limit option, as it was mostly redundant with bcdata.chunk_limit, and should always be set by the server. Please set the page size limit for paginated requests via the bcdata.chunk_limit option (#332). - Updated internals to adapt to changes in B.C. Data Catalogue (#342, #343). Changes in version 0.4.1 (2023-03-18) - Add jsonlite::read_json() as a file read method, so users can now download & read json resources in B.C. Data Catalogue records - Change the download_audience default from Public to NULL in bcdc_search() (#315) - Fix bug where some/all facet values in bcdc_search() need to be quoted to generate a valid API query (#315) - Add new functions bcdc_list_organizations and bcdc_list_organization_records as helper functions for finding records #322 Changes in version 0.4.0 (2023-01-05) User-facing changes - For WFS queries constructed using bcdc_query_geodata(), function calls in filter() that need to be evaluated locally are no-longer auto-detected. They now need to be wrapped in local() to force local evaluation before the CQL query is constructed and sent to the WFS server. Please see vignette("local-filter") for more information. This aligns with recommended usage patterns in other dbplyr backends (#304, PR #305). Changes in version 0.3.2 (2022-07-06) - Fixed a test that was failing when no internet was available - Upgraded to dbplyr edition 2, bumped dependency to 2.0.0 (#300) Changes in version 0.3.1 (2022-05-24) - Added bcdc_get_citation to generate bibliographic entries (via utils::bibentry) for individuals records. #273 - Results from bcdc_search() (objects of class "bcdc_recordlist") now print 50 records by default, instead of 10. In addition, there is a new [ method for "bcdc_recordlist" objects, allowing you to subset these lists and still have a nice printout (#288). - Ensure that bcdc_get_data() fails informatively when a given resource doesn't exist in a record (#290) - Ensure compatibility with upcoming dbplyr 2.2.0 (#297, 82b9defa376ab) Changes in version 0.3.0 (2021-10-28) - The BC Data Catalogue and its API have been updated, requiring changes to the bcdata package, most of which are internal only (#283). These should be mostly invisible to the user, except for the removal of the type search facet in bcdc_search() and bcdc_search_facets(). If you use an API key (authorized catalogue editors only), you will need to login to the new catalogue and get your updated key and set the value your BCDC_KEY environment variable to the new key. IMPROVEMENTS - Add names method for bcdc.promise objects. You can now call names on an object produced by bcdc_query_geodata. This is handy when trying to figure out exact column spelling etc. #278 BUG FIXES - Fix bug where sticky column were incorrectly identified in bcdc_describe_feature (#279) Changes in version 0.2.4 (2021-05-04) - Code in .onLoad() that sent a request to the wfs getCapabilities endpoint could cause the package to fail to load. This was moved into an internal function bcdc_get_capabilities() that makes the request the first time it's required, and stores the result for the remainder of the session (#271) - testthat is now used conditionally to only run tests if the testthat package is installed. Changes in version 0.2.3 (2021-04-24) IMPROVEMENTS - Setting the bcdata.single_download_limit limit dynamically from the getCapabilities endpoint. #256 - bcdc_describe_feature now joins an object description column to the returned object to provide more information about a field directly in R. #241, #259 - Better documentation and information surrounding the bcdata.max_geom_pred_size option. #243, #258 - Add new function bcdc_check_geom_size so users can check prior to submitting a WFS request with filter to see if the request will require a bounding box conversion. #243, #258 - Better documentation and messaging about when and why paginated requests are required by bcdc_query_geodata(). #240, #264 - Better documentation and print method for what records are suitable for use with bcdc_query_geodata(). #265, #267 Changes in version 0.2.2 (2021-03-12) IMPROVEMENTS - Added bcdc_list_groups and bcdc_list_group_records to provide the ability to query on the group endpoint of the catalogue API. #234 - Added new option bcdata.single_download_limit to enable setting the maximum number of records an object can be before forcing a paginated download (#252) BUG FIXES - Fixed bug in collect.bcdc_promise where the wrong parameter name in crul::Paginator$new() resulted in an error in paginated wfs requests (#250, thanks @meztez) - Fixed a bug where the name of bcdata.chunk_limit option had a typo, so that it was not actually used properly (#252) Changes in version 0.2.1 (2020-10-25) BUG FIXES - Remove link for pipe documentation for simplicity. - Fixed bug where using many as. functions (e.g., as.Date(), as.character(), as.numeric()) in a filter statement would fail. (#218, #219) MAINTENANCE - Updated internal SQL translation to use DBI S4 generics (DBI::dbQuoteIdentifier() is now used instead of dbplyr::sql_escape_ident() and DBI::dbQuoteString() instead of dbplyr::sql_escape_string()), to comply with upcoming dbplyr 2.0 release (#225, #225; https://github.com/tidyverse/dbplyr/issues/385) - Wrapped all examples that call web resources in try() to avoid spurious check failures (#229). Changes in version 0.2.0 (2020-06-25) BREAKING CHANGES - Rename selectable column from bcdc_describe_feature to sticky and modify corresponding docs and tests (#180). IMPROVEMENTS - Add explore-silviculture-data-using-bcdata vignette/article. h/t @hgriesbauer - Add head and tail methods for bcdc.promise objects. Thanks to @hgriesbauer for the suggestion! (#182, #186) - Provide as_tibble as an alias for collect in line with dbplyr behaviour (#166) - Geometry predicates can now take a bbox object as well as an sf* object (#176) - When reading in excel files, bcdc_get_data now outputs a messages indicating the presence and names of any sheets (#190) - bcdc_get_data() & bcdc_query_geodata() will now work with full B.C. data catalogue url including resource (#125, #196) - bcdc_sf objects now have an time_downloaded attribute - Authorized B.C. Data Catalogue editors can now authenticate with the catalogue by setting a BCDC_KEY environment variable with their catalogue API token (https://github.com/bcgov/bcdata#bcdc-authentication; #208). BUG FIXES - Fix select, filter and mutate roxygen so that bcdata specific documentation to these methods is available - Add tests for attributes Changes in version 0.1.2 (2019-12-17) IMPROVEMENTS - Add bcdc_tidy_resources for retrieving a data frame containing the metadata for all resources from a single B.C. Data Catalogue record (PR#149, #147) - Add a more decorative record print method (#73) - More reliable detection of layer name for a wfs call in bcdc_query_geodata() (#129, #138, #139) - Add mutate method for bcdc_promise that only fails and suggest an alternative approach. (PR#134) - Add back in querying vignette - Using tidyselect so that select.bcdc_promise behaviour is typical of dplyr::select ($140, #138) - Using GitHub actions for CI. MINOR BREAKING CHANGES - Remove BEYOND() and RELATE() geometry predicates as they are currently not fully supported by geoserver BUG FIXES - Now precompiling vignettes so that queries are submitted locally and no actually requests are made from CRAN (#151) - Fix NOTE: Namespace in Imports field not imported from: ‘methods’ error on CRAN (#145) - Fixed a bug where functions nested inside geometry predicates were not evaluated (#146, #154) - Fixed a bug where DWITHIN wasn't working because units needed to be unquoted (#154) - Fixed a bug where BBOX() used in a filter() statement combined with bcdc_query_geodata() did not work (#135, #137, #131) - Fixed a bug where layer names with a number in them would not work in bcdc_query_geodata() (#126, #127) Changes in version 0.1.1 (2019-11-05) - Expand and standardize checking w[ms]f features to make package more resistant to slight warehouse API changes. - Data retrieval functions now work with BCGW name (#106) - Add CITATION file (#104) - Increased test coverage (#112) - Skipping all tests on CRAN that require a web connection - Better and more informative error message when experiencing http failures occur (#121) - Added print methods for show_query - Change examples to donttest - Added verbose argument to bcdc_get_record to enable suppressing console writing Changes in version 0.1.0 - Initial Release
