retrosheet 1.1.4

• Updated tests to skip Rmarkdown tests on CRAN. Avoids pandoc dependency issues on Solaris and MacOS CRAN package checks.

retrosheet 1.1.3

• Updated tests to account for stringsAsFactors = FALSE
• Switched to making requests via https to align with retrosheet.org changeover
• Updated README.md to account for master to main change in repo

retrosheet 1.1.2

• Replaced kludge-y closeAllConnections() with close() calls to specific connections (#1)
• Added some rudimentary data cleanup to the get_retrosheet() wrapper function
  • Dates in retrosheet data now return date-types, everything else is converted from chr via the relatively aggressive type.convert()
• Removed data.table dependency, replaced data.table::fread() with base::read.csv() calls
• get_retrosheet() now returns regular old dataframes now, instead of tibbles.
• Added better handling of HTTP requests. Failed requests are now retried up to three times via httr::RETRY()

retrosheet 1.1.1

• Added get_retrosheet(), a wrapper for getRetrosheet() that takes the same arguments and returns the same data, except coercing matrices into tibbles.
• Updated tests to account for more data being added to retrosheet.org (whoops)

retrosheet 1.1.0

• Schedule scraping now expects a *.zip file instead of *.txt file, to accommodate change to retrosheet.org file structure
• Added cache parameter to getRetrosheet(). This defaults to NA. If set to a local directory path, retrosheet data will be cached locally and re-used so as not to constantly download the same file from the retrosheet.org servers
• Fixed parsing of substitutions in games where no substitutions occurred. This is a rare edge case.
• Removed RCurl dependency (due to incompatibility with TLS > 1.0). Web data is now downloaded using httr functions
• Removed XML dependency, replaced with xml2 and rvest
