Changes in version 1.1.1 (2025-07-16)                  

Bug fixes

  - Added {systemfonts} as a dependency in Suggests as it is required to
    build the vignette in r-oldrel-macos-arm64 (#218, @Karim-Mane).

  - Set a default value for the orders argument of the
    standardize_dates() function using its initial value in
    version 1.0.2 (#224, @Karim-Mane).

Enhancements

  - The values of the duplicates_checked_from, converted_into_numeric,
    missing_values_replaced_at, missing_ids elements of the report which
    used to be a character (a comma-separated list of values) are now of
    type vector (#228, @Karim-Mane).

  - Remove the row_id column returned by the remove_duplicates()
    function. This columns was introduced to perform the anti join with
    the output from the find_duplicates() function, but is not needed in
    the final output object (#227, @Karim-Mane).

                     Changes in version 1.1.0.9000                      

                 Changes in version 1.1.0 (2025-03-04)                  

Bug fixes

  - Fixed a bug in the index for empty rows returned by print_report()
    after remove_constants(). This function was incorrectly returning
    the number of rows in the original data frame, instead of the index
    of empty rows (#173, @Bisaloo).

  - Fixed a bug in the date guesser used by the standardize_dates()
    function. The followings updates were made (#175, @Karim-Mane):
    
      - allow for quarter and partial dates, and
      - account for odd cases before parsing using the {lubridate}
        package.

Enhancements

  - Rendering the report no longer requires the use of the {withr}
    package. Files generated during this process will be stored in the R
    temporary directory (#165, @Bisaloo).

  - Simplification and improvement of code performance across several
    functions (#154, #156, #162, @Bisaloo).

  - Make R version dependency explicit (#156, @Bisaloo).

  - Replace base R pipe operator with the {tidyverse} package pipe
    operator (#155, @Karim-Mane).

  - Stop automatic conversion of numeric values into Date due to
    unexpected results from date_guess() function (#151, @Karim-Mane).

  - Allow for a vector of character for na_strings argument in
    replace_missing_values() (#180, Karim-Mane).

  - Improved messaging to differentiate between duplicates found in the
    subject IDs column and duplicates across multiple columns (#180,
    Karim-Mane).

  - Allow for iterative constant data removal (#180, Karim-Mane).

  - The remove_constants() now works correctly when the cutoff is
    different from 1. More importantly, the function no longer depends
    on the {janitor} package (#177, Karim-Mane).

  - The scan_data() now makes use of date_guess() to parse date from
    characters and lubridate::as_date() to parse dates from numeric.
    This function now operates only on character columns (#181,
    Karim-Mane).

  - Replace snakecase::to_snake_case() with janitor::clean_names() and
    make sure variable names specified in keep and rename are preserved
    after applying janitor::clean_names() (#180, Karim-Mane).

  - Use the {cli} package for formatting messages in the package (#196,
    Karim-Mane).

  - Translate messages in the package into French using the {potools}
    package (#196, Karim-Mane).

  - An additional column (row_id) with the row indices where the
    incorrect date sequences are found is now added to the report made
    from the check_date_sequence() function (#196, Karim-Mane).

  - The date_guess() and related functions now returns a list of two
    elements: the converted values and a boolean that informs about the
    presence of numeric values that can also be of type Date (#181,
    Karim-Mane).

  - Update the package vignette to account for the improvements made in
    the different pull requests (#194, Karim-Mane).

Deprecated and defunct

  - Function documentations have been updated. The clean_data() no
    longer takes the params argument. Instead, it takes many other
    arguments that are described in the function documentation and the
    package vignettes (#184, Karim-Mane).

                 Changes in version 1.0.2 (2024-06-17)                  

*Minor version release of {cleanepi} include various improvements based
on feedback from the CRAN submission process.

                        Changes in version 1.0.0                        

  - development of data cleaning modules.
