loggit2 v2.2.2

Breaking Changes

• Custom sanitizers and unsanitizers must be able to process character vectors.
  Previously, only the processing of vectors of length one was explicitly required.

New Features

• message(), warning(), and stop() now accept conditions as input like their base R equivalents.
• New stopifnot() handler.
• set_logfile() has a new argument create that allows the user to create the file if it does not exist.

Bugfixes

• read_logs() processes entries with ": " correctly.
  Previously, entries were truncated and/or assigned to incorrect columns.
• message(), warning(), and stop() now use the same call in their messages and their condition objects as their base R equivalents and no longer give themselves as the call.
  For warning() and stop(), there can be deviations in very rare cases, as the function that determines the call for these in base R is not provided at the R or C level, nor is the necessary C header.
• set_logfile() now attempts to convert relative paths to absolute paths. This prevents the logfile from being inadvertently changed when switching (even temporarily) the working directory.
  If this unintended side effect was used intentionally, the same effect can be achieved by explicitly resetting the path.
• set_logfile() now correctly outputs the randomly generated temporary file as the new path in its confirmation message when NULL is given as an argument.
• rotate_logs(rotate_lines = 0L) now empties the log as expected. Additionally, an error is thrown for negative values.
• rotate_logs() preserves the original sanitization of the log entries. Previously, the sanitization was lost when the log was rotated for values between 0 and the number of log entries.
• read_logs() now correctly reads empty log fields as NA_character_. Previously, empty fields were read as "" when the first entry of the field was empty.

Minor Changes

• All set_* functions use message() instead of print() for confirmation. This ensures that the confirmations no longer interfere with the log via echo.
• default_ndjson_sanitizer(), which was not exported but is visible in the documentation, now follows the rules for sanitizers.

Documentation

• Functions that were only for internal use (and were not exported) were marked as such and are no longer visible in the index.

Fork

• The name changed from loggit to loggit2.
• The maintainership has been transferred from "Ryan Price" to "Matthias Ollech".
