version 1.1.7
- updated the ECB SDMX REST API endpoint
- Fix in test that wrote to illegal place (thanks to Kurt Hornik for
  pointing this out)

version 1.1.6
- Added nzchar(), startsWith(), endsWith() as pure validating function
- Fix: rules in YAML that included a literal "---" would not be parsed
  correctly (thanks to Paul Horikx for the fix)
- updated the Eurostat SDMX REST API endpoint
- Fixes in documentation per request of CRAN (Thanks to Kurt Hornik
  for pointing this out).


version 1.1.5
- Fixed several (possibly) invalid URLs pointing to the ESS CROS website
  by replacing them to versions of documents on markvanderloo.eu.
- Fixed several Rd bugs (thanks to Kurt Hornik for pointing out the changes).
- Changed internal function names to comply with stricter S3 methods checking
  in R CMD check --as-cran


version 1.1.3
- 'violating', 'satisfying' and 'lacking' are now generic (useful for validatedb)
- as.data.frame,confrontation-method now includes results of rules that yielded
  a warning. (Thanks to Patrick Driessens for reporting)
- as.data.frame,confrontation-method now returns a zero-row data frame when
  confrontation object has no results or only errors. (Thanks to Patrick
  Driessens for reporting)
- Fix: rules are checked when read from file (was skipped in earlier versions)
- Cookbook updates: removed reference to FAO SDMX server as it apears to not
  exist anymore. Updated references and links as journal papers are now
  published.

version 1.1.1
- 'aggregate' with argument by="rule" now ensures that the rule-by-rule
  output is in the same order as in the confrontation object (they
  used to be grouped by dimension structure). This fixes an issue
  where plots of validation objects would have the wrong placement
  of y-axis labels. (Thanks to Jonas Klingwort for reporting). 
- Fix in plot method for 'validation' objects: test for errors yielded a
  warning.

version 1.1.0
- Added support for SDMX codelists from SDMX REST APIs, see
  'sdmx_codelist', 'estat_codelist', 'global_codelist'.
- plot-validation method now prints a message to console when one or more
  rules yielded an error so it's explicit that not all data can be plotted.
  (Thanks to John Kennedy for pointing this out).
- Fix: 'aggregate' would fail for validations based on empty data frames (thanks
  to Matthials Gomolka for reporting).
- Fix: empty names in a data frame passed as '.data' to 'validator' would
  yield empty names in the resulting 'validator' object. (Thanks to Wytze
  Gelderloos for reporting)

version 1.0.4
- Added 'rmarkdown' to 'Suggests' as requested by CRAN
- Small updates for compatibility with new version of 'settings'

version 1.0.2
- Updated CITATION since paper will be published by JSS (Thanks to Achim Zeileis).
- Improved 'print' method of all objects inheriting from 'confrontation' (#129)
- 'compare' now also works with 'tibble' objects -- who disguise themselves
  as data frames but behave differently.
- Fix: add_indicators() would fail or not add results properly in some
  cases. (Thanks to Jos de Waard for reporting #128).
- Fix: 'as.data.frame' would fail for validator objects where at least 
  one of the rules contained a var_group(). (Thanks to Matthias Gomolka
  for reporting). The issue with 'var_group', and ':=' assignments is that 
  the expanded list of expressions generated by a validator is not one-to-one 
  with the original list of expressions in the validator. Therefore the
  (internal) `$exprs()` method now adds an attribute to each expression
  it outputs, called 'reference' that is an index into the original
  validator object.
- Fix: Parsing yaml files would crash when the 'expr' field is empty
  (Thanks to Matthias Gomolka for reporting).

version 1.0.1
- Fixed URL issues caught by CRAN but not by R CMD check --as-cran.


version 1.0.0
- Added The Data Validation Cookbook as vignette. See also
  <https://data-cleaning.github.io/validate>
- Improved visualisation of validation output using 'plot'. The 'barplot'
  method for 'confrontation' objects is now deprecated and will be removed
  eventually.
- New functions 'violating', 'satisfying', 'lacking' to select records 
  based on 'validator' objects or the outcome of validations ('validation' 
  objects).
- New function 'hierarchy' checks aggregations against hierarchical code lists.
  Supports globbing and regular expression to define parent-child relations.
- New functions 'in_linear_sequence' and 'is_linear_sequence' 
  check for gaps/duplicates in numerical or time series.
- New function in_range checks whether a variable is between bounds.
- New function 'part_whole_relation' facilitates checking aggregates
  against details, for data in 'long' format.
- New helper functions that for split-apply-combine on vectors, with the property
  that output is always of the same size as the input: 'sum_by', 'min_by', 'max_by'
  'mean_by' and the general 'do_by'.
- New function 'hb' implementing Hiridoglou-Berthelot outlier measure.
- New convenience function 'field_length' checks number (or range) of code
  points.
- New convenience function 'number_format' with simple syntax for
  specifying layout of numbers that are stored as character.
- New functions to check (non)existens of a given set of key combinations:
  'contains_exactly', 'contains_at_least', 'contains_at_most', 'does_not_contain'.
  Support for globbing and regular expression is built in, and tests can be
  performed group-wise.
- New function 'field_format': convenience wrapper for 'grepl' that also supports
  globbing.
- New dataset 'samplonomy' with simulated national account figures of the
  island of Samplonia in long format, and with errors.
- New dataset 'nace_rev2', representing the 2008 (revision 2) NACE hierarchy
  for classification of economic activity.
- Added 'names' method for 'confrontation' objects.
- Fix: option 'lin.ineq.eps' was ignored by 'confront'.
- Fix: indexing of 'confrontation' objects failed in 'lapply' context. (Thanks
  to Matthias Gomolka for GH issue #116)
- Package now depends on R >= 3.5.0 because of the samplonomy RData file.
- Breaking change: for consistency, the '...' argument in 'exists_one' and 'exists_any'
  is replaced with 'by'. This only affects cases with multiple grouping variables.
- Internal: of x$y in reference data are now parsed to x[["y"]] (used to be x[,"y"]).


version 0.9.3
- New functions 'exists_any' and 'exists_one' to help define cross-record 
  validation rules (thanks to David Salgado)
- results of 'sort' and 'aggregate' now include key columns (if any)
- Added accepted JSS paper as vignette.
- Added CITATION file

version 0.9.2

- Objects of class 'validator' now store (default) metadata on expression 
  language and rule severity.

  introduction of the '.' made them more or less obsolete).
- Package now 'depends' on methods to allow dispatch on objects inhereting from data.frame
- bugfix: The assignment created(<validator>) <- <POSIXct> was broken. #65, thanks to Andrew R Gibson.

- Added rules from the ESSnet on validation (deliverable 17) to automated tests.
- added 'grepl' to allowed validation syntax (suggested by Dusan Sovic)
- exported a few functions w/ keywords internal for extensibility
- Bugfix: blocks sometimes reported wrong nr of blocks (in case of a single connected block.)
- Bugfix: macro expansion failed when macros were reused in other macros.
- Bugfix: certain nonlinear relations were recognized as linear
- Bugfix: rules that use (anonymous) function definitions raised error when printed.
