fredr()
/ fredr_series_observations()
now always return realtime_start
and
realtime_end
columns. These are useful when setting the
realtime_start
/ realtime_end
arguments, or
when using the vintage_dates
argument (#88).
Fixed a bug in fredr()
/
fredr_series_observations()
so that now the
vintage_dates
argument properly accepts a Date
vector of length 1 or greater (#89).
fredr has been un-orphaned!
If the FRED rate limit is hit, all fredr functions will now wait an appropriate amount of time before automatically attempting to make the request again. The rate limit seems to be 120 requests per minute, so fredr functions will wait 20 seconds between failed attempts, with a maximum of 6 failed attempts. This should be plenty of time for the rate limit to reset.
Required arguments no longer have a default of NULL
.
This should make it easier to visually distinguish between required and
optional arguments. Additionally, ...
have been added
between the required and optional arguments of every function to force
naming of optional arguments.
All requests to the FRED API are now retried a maximum of 3 times
on failure. The low level function, fredr_request()
, has
gained a retry_times
argument if you need to change this on
a case-by-case basis.
There are two new functions related to the API key,
fredr_set_key()
and fredr_has_key()
. These are
mainly for internal usage.
Initial release for CRAN. All endpoint functions for the FRED API are now implemented as functions in fredr.
