Source: NEWS.md

CatMapR 0.1.15 (2026-05-07)

• Renamed exported functions to a clearer snake_case user API: get_cmid_info(), list_datasets(), get_dataset_metadata(), search_database(), translate_rows(), propose_merge_links(), join_datasets(), get_domains(), get_properties(), get_upload_properties(), get_merge_template(), get_merge_template_summary(), build_merge_syntax(), upload_rows(), and prepare_upload_rows().
• Removed legacy alias exports and deprecated upload wrappers.
• Merged upload flows into upload_rows(); it now always triggers updateWaitingUSES in the background and no separate refresh wrapper is exported.
• Added build_key_from_columns() to build CatMapper FIELD == VALUE expressions from one or more columns.
• Upload wrappers now always send standard key mode and no longer expose simple-mode toggles.
• Added tests for metadata/property wrapper behavior, endpoint construction, and API error handling.
• Declared R (>= 4.1.0) explicitly to match use of the native pipe operator.
• Removed the SSL peer-verification override from callAPI().
• Refreshed README, vignette, pkgdown reference structure, and stability notes to better reflect the current exported API.
• Cleaned packaging hygiene by excluding generated vignette outputs from builds and removing stale tracked build artifacts from the repo.
• Note: get_properties() depends on API deployments that expose /metadata/properties/<database>. During rollout, some deployments may support get_upload_properties() before get_properties().
• Added merge-template, upload-status, upload-wait, workbook-download, and merge-zip helpers with documentation and tests.
• Added explicit CatMapperJS edit-page upload action crosswalk documentation.
• Added listDatasetMetadata() as a compatibility alias for dataset catalog metadata.

CatMapR 0.1.2 (2026-03-18)

• Normalized package metadata for CRAN submission (Title, Version, License, URL, and BugReports).
• Standardized top-level package files for CRAN checks (README.md) and added build ignore rules for local check artifacts.
• Made API examples CRAN-safe by wrapping network calls in \\dontrun{}.
• Added central input-validation helpers and wired them into exported API wrappers for clearer error messages and safer inputs.
• Added tests covering new validation behavior.
• Added an API stability contract to freeze the 0.1.x public interface.
• Added CRAN submission comments draft (cran-comments.md).
