job 0.3.1

Bug fix release

Bug fixes

• Now loads packages in the correct order. Closes https://github.com/lindeloev/job/issues/53.
• Now accurately represents NA_character_ etc. in the job. Closes https://github.com/lindeloev/job/issues/51.
• Now gracefully handles loaded but uninstalled packages. Closes https://github.com/lindeloev/job/issues/48.
• Avoid crash on R 4.4 by removing the check for RStudio version >= 1.2 (from April 2019). Thanks Balázs Knakker for detecting and fixing this bug!

job 0.3.0

First release submitted to CRAN.

New features:

• Control what objects are returned using the job::export() function in the code chunk. The default is job::export("changed") which returns all variables that were defined or changed during the job. v0.1 only returned new variable names (now job::export("new")). Read more in the README. (#15)
• Use job::export("changed", file = "my_jobresult.RData") to save to a file rather than returning to the main RStudio session.
• job::job() shows more informative messages all around to reduce state ambiguity when launching jobs.
• Much faster import for large environments.

job 0.2.0

New features:

• RStudio addins (#6)! Read more in the README.
• Use import = "auto" to import all objects that are “mentioned” in the code. The default import = "all" replaces import = ls().
• The job title now includes a code snippet for unnamed chunks instead of defaulting to "(untitled)".
• job::job() now takes unnamed arguments too, e.g., job::job({<code>}, NULL, c("rstudioapi")). (#25)
• Added job::empty() which is short for job::job({<code>}, import = NULL, packages = NULL, opts = NULL) (#23)

Bug fixes

• RStudio-specific options caused errors - mostly on macs (#4, #7, #10, #27)
• The addins can now handle apostrophes in the job title.

Other changes

• Unnamed chunks returns contents to global environment instead of returning nothing. .call is not saved in this case. (#9)
• Peak memory usage has been considerably reduced.
• The digest package was added as a dependency to support export("changed").
• Transitioned to testthat for unit tests and expanded the test suite considerably. (#26)

job 0.1.0

Beta release.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
