Full Changelog: activityinfo-4.36...activityinfo-4.36.1

v4.36

• API tokens are now stored per root URL of the server. The token will need to be added again using activityInfoToken(token). The location of the token file has changed from "~/.activityinfo.credentials" to "~/.activityinfo.server.credentials" to avoid accidentally overwriting and losing the old tokens. (#101)
• Column name de-duplication in getRecords() (#118)
• Updated GitHub Action checks (#116)
• Snapshot tests allow new properties
• Allow custom IDs in addRecord (#111, #104)
• Billing account info functions (#97)
• API Token now stored per root URL (#101)
• Only add parent columns to query if there are fields defined on parentVarNames (#103)

v4.35.1

• Fix for getQuantityTable() (#115)

v4.35

• addForm() now respects folderId argument (#93)
• Add "bulk_delete", "manage_translations", and "reviewer_only" arguments to permissions (#91)
• createFormSchemaFromData() now returns formSchema object rather than list with formSchema and data
• updateRecord() fails if the record does not exist, rather than adding it (#43)
• Dependency on rjson removed

v4.34

• dplyr is loaded onto the search path when activityinfo is loaded
• documentation improvements

[4.33]

• getRecords() added to represent remote records on the server with helper functions to set column name styles, e.g. prettyColumnStyle(), minimalColumnStyle()
• Support for tidy selection and renaming of columns of remote records
• Eager collection of remote records and conversion to data.frame when required for dplyr verbs. filter(), arrange(), slice_head, and slice_tail() can be used on remote records before downloading and converting to a data.frame.
• migrateFieldData() added to migrate data from a field to another using a user-supplied conversion function
• createFormSchemaFromData() added to automatically guess a form field schema from a data.frame
• extractSchemaFromFields() added to extract form fields into a new form schema using the selected columns of a remote records object (getRecords()), including those from reference form fields.
