Overview

About

Maintained by James HollwayCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

This is the core package offering a portal to the many packages universe. It includes functions to help researchers access, work across, and maintain ensembles of datasets on global governance called datacubes.

Changes in 1.1.4

Package

Moved {text2vec} to Suggests because of archival of {float}
code_extend_glove() now checks whether {text2vec} is installed
Suggested packages now only offered for installation in interactive sessions
Examples and tests requiring suggested packages are now skipped if not installed
Now depends on R >= 4.1.0 and uses the native pipe |> internally
%>% is still re-exported for users
Updated GitHub actions and PR template
PR checks now include PR metadata and reverse dependency checks
Releases now draw their notes from the NEWS file

Data

Fixed invalid date in emperors$UNRV causing an error in consolidate() eg

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("manydata", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("globalgov/manydata")

Development version from globalgov/manydata. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-manydata

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-manydata

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-manydata

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
