Recent Releases of relter
relter - v3.0.0
some functions were deprecated: getsiteMODIS, getsiteODS, getilter, getnetwork, getsos*, and producezenodorecord;
These were replaced by a new function getsiteEcoDataCube;
Dependency on the older raster package was removed, and terra was used instead;
Vignettes and documentation were improved;
Rarely used packages were removed to reduce the number of dependencies (e.g., purrr);
All map plots were standardized to use leaflet (requires leaflet >= 2.1.1);
Several functions were revised to make them more readable and concise (e.g., producenetworkpointsmap and producesite_map);
Dependencies were analyzed across all functions, and their number was reduced accordingly. For this purpose, a summary table was created (see Google Spreadsheet packagesvsfunctions) showing the overall number of packages and their usage by function;
Packages used only a few times (≤ 2) were removed, favoring base functions or functions already widely used in the package;
Installation requirements were revised by evaluating which packages should not be mandatory at install time. This was achieved by:
@seealso tags were used (e.g., @seealso[tidyr::nest()]) instead of @importFrom to indicate usage without forcing package loading;
Packages were moved from the Imports to the Suggests section in the DESCRIPTION file;
Package availability was checked dynamically with requireNamespace("
", quietly = TRUE); Direct calls were replaced with wrappers to avoid package loading, e.g., unnestfx <- getNamespace("tidyr", "unnest") and then unnestfx(cols = c(id)).
Cheatsheets were created to provide users with quick references to the main functionalities of the package
