pipette 0.14.0 (2023-10-03)

New functions:

fillLines: Utility function for fixing malformed CSV and TSV files.
unfactorize: New generic function that intelligently converts a factor back to its original atomic data type.

Major changes:

The import and export generics are now defined in AcidGenerics rather than extending from BiocIO. This helps simplify the methods, removing options that we never use.
Now enforcing strict camel case for all function names.
The pipette file classes are now named in strict upper camel case.
Renamed cacheURL to cacheUrl.
Renamed getJSON to getJson.
Renamed getURLDirList to getUrlDirList.
Renamed pipetteTestsURL to pipetteTestsUrl.
Renamed removeNA to removeNa.
Renamed sanitizeNA to sanitizeNa.

Minor changes:

import: Improved edge case handling of datasets with invalid names.
as.data.frame: Improved internal coercion code for Matrix and IRanges.
as.DataFrame: Ensure we set optional = TRUE internally during as.data.frame call.

Major changes:

import now supports import of JSON and YAML lines via textConnection. This is very useful for importing return from CLI tools, such as aws.

Minor changes:

import: Now using read_yaml internally instead of yaml.load_file from the yaml package.
