rinat 0.1.10

New features

get_inat_obs() can now filter observations by photo licences with the new photo_license argument. For example, get_inat_obs(taxon_name = "Burhinus grallarius", photo_license = "CC-BY") will only return observations with photos licensed under Creative Commons - Attribution. (Thank you @beausoleilmo)

get_inat_obs_project() now removes all empty elements (not just the last one) when there is a mismatch between the number of observations reported and returned by the API (fixes #60)

Update documentation to resolve “Rd targets missing package” NOTE from CRAN check
Use linewidth aesthetic instead of size to suppress ggplot2 warning (thank you @beausoleilmo)

New annotation argument in get_inat_obs() to filter by annotation, e.g. by life stage, sex or phenology. See the available annotations. (#53)
New vignette demonstrating processing and visualising data for species distribution: vignette("species-distribution")

Properly cater for mismatch in project observation numbers to stay on CRAN (attempt in previous version did not cover all cases)
Improve console messages in get_inat_obs_project()
Skip tests that use the iNaturalist API on CRAN
Don’t error when iNaturalist or Internet is not available, as per CRAN Repository Policies (#49)

Cater for a corner case in which a mismatch between a project’s reported number of observations and the actual number of observations returned produced an error when merging data frames in get_inat_obs_project()

New maintainer: Stéphane Guillou (@stragu)
Improve documentation
Clean up code according to CRAN feedback
Note that 0.1.x versions of rinat will only fix existing issues, before a move to the new iNaturalist API with version 0.2 (which is likely to introduce breaking changes).

get_inat_obs() can now use objects of class Spatial or sf as a bounding box (#38, @Martin-Jung and #40, @LDalby; fixes #30)
Allow the use of an iNat place_id when searching for observations (commit 1d7f14f, @LDalby)

Lower result number limit when bounding box present (#20)
Fix result pagination in get_obs_project() for cases when the number of results is a multiple of 100 (#1, @vijaybarve)
Stop get_inat_obs() if no search parameter(s) provided (#32, @LDalby)
Avoid API error by limiting search results to 10000 (#32, @LDalby)
Fix argument name in inat_handle() (#32, @LDalby)
Use JSON endpoint instead of CSV to avoid get_inat_obs_project() failing on some projects (#35, @LDalby and #38, @Martin-Jung; fixes #28 and #37)
Fix code according to devtools::check() feedback in preparation for CRAN release

Fixed bug where an error occurred when >20K records were requested and code now throws a warning to not hammer the API
Fixed warning thrown when building vignettes on Linux systems
Fixed bug where example code parameter names were different than actual parameter names
