baRcodeR 0.1.5

Bugs:

fixed errors in tests due to r-devel switching to using stringsAsFactor = FALSE as default
fixed broken link in readme

baRcodeR 0.1.4

Bugs and Improvements:

tests have been added for user prompts and the RStudio addin with shinytest
vignettes describing how to use the add-in and the command line are now organized separately from the restructured README
custom_create_PDF() page generation should now be faster (helpful when making sheets for hundreds of labels)
the command prompts have been restructured for a more menu-like selection for yes/no questions.
other minor changes in addition to the major ones outlined above as suggested by reviews at rOpenSci documented here
the baRcodeR package is now a part of rOpenSci and the documentation is online (here)[https://docs.ropensci.org/baRcodeR/]

Bugs and Improvements:

major bug fix for linear barcodes that occasionally created unscannable barcodes.
added documentation on how to create alternative formatting of labels (e.g. spaces, line breaks)
added padding for labels which were single character or blank
2-page cheatsheet now available as addin

New Feature:

In response to a user request, there is now an option to print linear (code 128 set B) barcodes.

Bugs and Improvements:

create_PDF() function will replace all underscores in text with dashes. Underscores are not specified in the encoding dictionary of qcrode and will throw errors.
x_space and y_space parameters are now limited between 0 and 1 for easier use. These parameters are used to position text on the printed labels.
Font size is no longer limited and is now measured as points. Font size is automatically reduced if text code is too long for the printed labels.

New Features:

label_width and label_height parameters specify the width and height of the label to enable alleys (i.e. gaps) between physical labels.

This is the first official release of the package.
