washopenresearch 0.1.0

Breaking changes

  • washdev and uncnewsletter no longer contain list-columns (#8). The multi-value variables supp_file_type, supp_url, das_repo_url, and keywords are now character columns in which multiple values are separated by "; ". Flat-file exports such as write.csv() now work directly on both datasets. Code that used tidyr::unnest() or unlist() on these columns should split the strings instead, for example with tidyr::separate_rows(supp_file_type, sep = "; ") or stringr::str_split(keywords, "; ").
  • Depends was raised from R (>= 2.10) to R (>= 3.5), required by the serialization format of the regenerated data files.

Minor improvements and fixes

  • The CSV and XLSX exports in inst/extdata/ now show multi-value cells as "; "-separated strings instead of R code literals such as c("pdf", "docx").
  • The variable descriptions in the package documentation and the data dictionary describe the new delimited format and the correct variable types.
  • The article “Missed Opportunity: where is WASH research data gone?” uses tidyr::separate_rows() in place of tidyr::unnest() to expand supp_file_type.
  • The word cloud figure in the README has alt text.
