Changes in version 0.3.7 (2022-10-11) - Some internal changes to date formatting for compatibility with R-devel revision >= r82904 (2022-09-24 19:32:52). Changes in version 0.3.6 (2022-09-03) - rotate(), backup() and co. no longer fail on filenames that contain special regex characters (such as * or +) - rotate(), backup() and co. now work with hidden files - rotate_rds: the on_change_only argument now also accepts a list() of paramters to be passed on to all.equal.data.table when comparing data.tables - rebuild docs for R 4.2.0 Changes in version 0.3.5 (2020-12-13) - Backups now retain their original timestamp (created, last modified) where possible (even when zipped) - fixed broken behaviour when pruning with max_backups where max_backups is the maximum number of files - parse_size() now accepts (and rounds down) decimal file sizes, but throws a warning Changes in version 0.3.4 (2020-10-28) - Hotfix for some tests related to the Cache R6 class that fail on systems with low-precision file system timestamps (such as ext3 and old Windows file systems) Changes in version 0.3.2 (2020-10-20) - fixes time zone related issue in Cache$prune(). - fixes bug in rotate_rds(on_change_only = TRUE) that occurs if a version of data.table < 1.3.0 is installed and either the source or target object are a data.table (but not both) - more robust clean up of temporary files in most unit tests Changes in version 0.3.0 (2020-10-16) - Improved some error messages - Added rotate_rds(), rotate_rds_time(), and rotate_rds_date() as a replacement for base::saveRDS() that supports creating backups instead of just overwriting the destination file. - added Cache, an R6 class for managing cache directories. The Cache API is still experimental and might change. - breaking R6 API: renamed some methods and active fields of BackupQueue to more universal names: - $push_backup() -> $push() - $backup_dir -> dir() - $backups -> $files - $file -> $origin - BackupQueue$prune_identical() removes identical backups for a BackupQueue Changes in version 0.2.4 (2020-01-07) - Fixes unit tests sensitive to year change. Changes in version 0.2.3 (2019-06-17) - Changed default behavior of rotate_date(), rotate_time(), etc...: If no backups exist of target file, use the "created" timestamp to determine whether rotation should take place or not. - verbose == TRUE now also displays information on why rotation was NOT triggered. - added backup_info() which is similar to file.info() but with additional backup related infos. - removed "dir" column from $backups/backup_info() Changes in version 0.2.2 (2019-05-28) - Reordered the arguments of rotate_*() and backup_*() for more consistency - default size for all all rotate_*() and backup_*() functions is now 1 (Byte). This means empty files are never rotated by default. - added support for Inf size and age (= never rotate) - More robust regex for discovering backups of files - R6 API: BackupQueue subclasses gain a should_rotate(...) method that determines whether rotation/backup should take place. - R6 API: BackupQueueDate and BackupQueueDateTime now have a caching mechanism for backups (defaults to FALSE). - R6 API: BackupQueue* now use setters/getters for all fields. Changes in version 0.2.1 (2019-05-16) - added examples to rotate() documentation - dry_run status is now tracked internally instead of a potentially user modifiable option() (it was never designed to be user modifiable anyways). - Track test coverage with covr - Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.
