Version 0.13

pipette 0.13.0 (2023-09-19)

Major changes:

  • getURLDirList: Entirely reworked internal code to no longer depend on RCurl package. Added support for HTTP(S) servers, which has been tested to work for Ensembl and NCBI.
  • import: Now supports textConnection class for primary con argument instead of always using character representing a file path. This is incredibly useful for reformatting a malformed delimited file on a remote server prior to import, which can help eliminate our reliance on readr or data.table as alternative engines to handle malformed files.
  • transmit: Reworked internal code to no longer depend on RCurl.

Minor changes:

  • export: Now supports GRangesList, which first coerces to data.frame. This class includes "group" and "groupName" as the first columns upon export.
