WormBase 0.5.0 (2023-09-28)

Major changes:

  • Now enforcing strict camel case for function names. Renamed geneIDs to geneIds and geneOtherIDs to geneOtherIds.
  • description: Reworked internal sanitization of the input data file.
  • Removed stringi dependency in favor of using our string splitting functions in AcidBase instead.

Minor changes:

  • Reworked internal string splitting to use base R approach via AcidBase instead of relying on compiled C code in stringi package.
  • Reworked internal code to not use pasteURL for incomplete URLs.
  • Updated unit tests for invalid REST API URLs.
  • Classing internally on DFrame instead of DataFrame virtual class.
