Recent Releases of nasapower

nasapower - v4.2.5

Bug fixes

  • Fixes bug where get_power() printed encoding messages

Scientific Software - Peer-reviewed - R

nasapower 4.2.1

Bug Fixes

  • Fixes Issue where querying all parameters failed.

Scientific Software - Peer-reviewed - R
Published by adamhsparks over 1 year ago

nasapower - nasapower v4.2.0

Minor Changes

  • Two new functions are added:

    • query_surfaces(): Query the POWER API for Detailed Information on Wind Type Surfaces
    • query_groupings(): Query the POWER API for Detailed Information on Available Parameter Groupings

  • query_parameters now allows you to retrieve rich metadata for the parameters.

  • Error, warning and other informational messages are now all formatted with {cli} for more attractive and informative messages.

  • The username passed along to the POWER API is now "nasapower4r" to support other packages built on {nasapower} that could use {vcr} in tests. Previously the user agent string took the version of {nasapower} and appended it, e.g., "nasapower410" for v4.1.0. Doing so breaks tests in packages relying on {nasapower} due to incompatibilities in cassettes, while not affecting functionality.

Bug fixes

  • Fixes a bug that allowed users to send requests to the API for hourly data over a region. The API does not support this and this client now provides a user-friendly error when it is attempted.

nasapower - nasapower 4.0.11

Bug fixes

  • Replaces & or | with the proper && or ||.

  • Corrects documentation titles for functions to be title case.

  • Fixes the CRAN badge in the README.

  • Updates {vcr} configuration files for testing.

Minor changes

  • Reorder README to stress that this is not the data source and should not be cited as such.

  • Tidy up minor bits-n-pieces in documentation to make it nicer, e.g. grammar corrections, using \dQuote{} rather than """ in ROxygen.

  • Uses sprintf rather than paste where possible.

  • Update {vcr} configuration and infrastructure to use .json cassettes.

Bug fixes

  • Fixes bug when requesting site_elevation. Thanks to @daniel_althoff for reporting this bug Issue 69.

  • Fixes bug where wind_elevation and wind_surface were not properly passed along to the API.

Minor changes

  • Fixes redundant and broken tests by removing or updating new tests.

Bug fixes

  • Fixes message when importing data using vroom >= 1.5.0, Thefileargument ofvroom()must useI()for literal data as of vroom 1.5.0.. Thanks to @palderman for the fix in Pull Request 67.

nasapower - v4.0.3

This release includes two unreleased version changes, v4.0.1 and v4.0.2 as detailed below.

nasapower 4.0.3

Minor changes

  • Fixes tests that should use vcr or be skipped on CRAN.

nasapower 4.0.2

Minor changes

  • Update checks for number of parameters requested by user, maximum of 15 for hourly and 20 for all other temporal APIs.

  • Return API messages to user to assist with troubleshooting when an error occurs server-side, see Issue 55.

  • The list of POWER parameters that can be queried from the API, parameters, is now in alphabetical order.

  • Add paragraph to vignette describing how to work with possible rate limiting by API endpoints using ratelimitr. This is in place of internally rate-limiting due to the way ratelimitr handles function creation and the fact that the rate limits are extremely generous and may change as the project matures.

nasapower 4.0.1 (unreleased on CRAN)

Bug fixes

Minor changes

  • Enforces API limits client-side where the API limits unique queries to 30 per 60 seconds as found and reported by @camwur in Issue 57. This can be adjusted in future releases of nasapower if the POWER API changes as has been indicated is possible.

  • (Re)enables vcr for better unit testing.

  • More comprehensive unit tests.

nasapower 4.0.0

Major changes

  • Adds support for new NASA POWER API v2.0, which includes new hourly data and other major changes to the API and available data. See https://power.larc.nasa.gov/ for fully detailed changes to the data.

  • Drops support for the deprecated NASA POWER API V1.0. Previous versions of nasapower are no longer functional.

  • Adds new function, query_parameters() to fetch information from the API on individual and all available community/temporal API combination parameters.

  • Removes SSE community, replaced with RE.

  • Removes global option for geographic coverage as passed along through the latlon argument of get_power().

  • Directly parse data from API response rather than downloading data to disk and importing.

  • The get_power() arguments are changed:

    • two new arguments are added,
    • wind_elevation, and
    • wind_surface,
    • the temporal_average argument has been superseded by temporal_api to align with the terminology used in the POWER API. The temporal_average argument will still work, however, a message will be given if a user still uses temporal_average to alert the user of the change and ask them to update their scripts.

nasapower - v3.0.1

Bug fixes

  • Fix bug where Solar Radiation, "ALLSKYSFCSW_DWN", and perhaps others that were missed, return a numeric -99.00 value rather than the proper NA for missing data. Thanks to Fernando Miguez, https://github.com/femiguez, for the assistance in isolating the issue.

nasapower 3.0.0

Major Changes to Functionality

  • Due to the removal of the CRAN package APSIM from CRAN, the removal of the create_met() function has been implemented sooner than expected to keep nasapower on CRAN

  • Deprecates create_met()

Bug fixes

  • Properly deprecates create_icasa()

nasapower 2.0.0

Bug Fixes

  • Correct any missing or redirecting URLs

  • Replace deprecated subclass with class in new_tibble()

  • Correct any missing or redirecting URLs

  • Replace deprecated subclass with class in new_tibble()

Major Changes to Functionality

  • Following a UNIX-like philosophy, this release removes functionality to write APSIM .met and DSSAT ICASA files to disk. nasapower now will only fetch the appropriate data and return a tibble() object in-session, please use apsimx or the POWER web API data access viewer, https://power.larc.nasa.gov/data-access-viewer/, for fetching and/or writing .met or .icasa files, respectively. Note that create_icasa() ideally should have been deprecated, but the server was not responding properly when queried for some time before the current release of nasapower so the function has been removed.

  • Add ability to get_power() to accept a user-provided site_elevation parameter that is passed to the API. When this is used it will return a corrected atmospheric pressure value adjusted to the elevation provided.

Minor and Internal Changes

  • Use newest values from POWER team to validate user inputs for API requests, see https://github.com/ropensci/nasapower/issues/48 for more.

  • Replace raster with terra for examples of converting to spatial data in vignettes

  • Use vcr for enhanced testing

  • Refactor the internal handling of temporary files to allow for more efficient use of the future package

Bug fixes

  • Fix issues reported at https://cloud.r-project.org//web/checks/checkresultsnasapower.html with failing tests. These tests should be skipped on CRAN but were not.

  • Fixes bug where missing values in POWER data were not properly replaced with NA in tibble and metFile outputs

  • Fixes bug in documentation for create_icasa() where the parameter for file_out was misidentified as just file

Minor changes

  • Users are now notified if creating a .met file that has any missing values through a console message and .csv file being written to disk to accompany the resulting .met file describing which values are missing

  • Fix Warning: Must pass a scalar integer as 'nrow' argument to 'new_tibble()'.

Major changes

Minor changes

  • Fixes bug where "CLIMATE" could not be requested for a single point

  • Refactor code to split internal functions by functionality and add more complete test coverage
