pegboard 0.7.1 (2023-10-03)

pegboard 0.7.0 (2023-10-02)

This release introduces automated processing of {knitr} child files, which enables them to be automatically available for validation and processing.

NEW FEATURES

  • Episode class objects gain the children, parents, and build_parents fields which will contain the known relationships between files. Both children and parents represent immediate relationships while build_parents represent the most distant ancestor of the object that would trigger it to build. Note that the parents fields are only populated for an Episode in the context of a Lesson object.
  • Lesson class objects gain the children field which is a list that stores Episode objects derived from child files.
  • Episode objects gain the $has_parents active binding reporting if the object has a parent object. This is only used in the context of a Lesson.
  • Both Episode and Lesson objects gain the $has_children active binding, reporting if there are any child episodes in the lesson or episode.
  • Lesson objects gain the $trace_lineage() method to return the absolute paths to all child files from the source path of a given episode if they exist.
  • make_link_table() now has a new column called parents which contains a list column of the parents (if any) of the files checked
  • $validate_links(), $validate_divs(), and $validate_headings() will now all process child files by default. Note that $validate_links() will report missing files relative to the build parents.

BUG FIX

  • The $load_built() method will now load all built markdown content, not just the episodes.

pegboard 0.6.1 (2023-09-06)

NEW FEATURES

  • $validate_divs() method now recognises the spoiler class of fenced divs which allow optional/expandable items that are not automatically shown to the learner (implemented: @tobyhodges, #134)

pegboard 0.6.0 (2023-08-29)

NEW FEATURES

  • Workshop overview pages are now able to be processed into Lesson objects. For Jekyll- based lessons, the directory name must end with -workshop (as is the standard for workshop overview lessons without episodes), for sandpaper- based lessons, the config.yaml file must contain the overview: true tag (reported: @zkamvar, #118; fixed: @zkamvar, #132, reviewed by @klbarnes20). These pages are indicated by the $overview field in the Lesson object. For lessons that are not workshop overview lessons, nothing will change.

BUG FIX

  • Lessons that underwent an incomplete conversion from Jekyll to sandpaper will now have a more appropriate error message provided.

pegboard 0.5.3 (2023-07-08)

BUG FIX

TESTS

pegboard 0.5.2 (2023-04-05)

BUG FIX

  • The README file is no longer run through validation as it is not generally a part of the website and more often than not, creates distractions.

pegboard 0.5.1 (2023-03-31)

BUG FIX

  • Fenced divs with attributes are now properly parsed (@zkamvar, #115).

pegboard 0.5.0 (2023-03-31)

NEW FEATURES

  • Lesson object validators now validate non-episode files (reported: @zkamvar #110; fixed: @zkamvar #113).
  • $validate_links() will now respect links to anchors in spans.
  • validators will no longer truncate on GitHub actions (reported: @zkamvar #111, fixed: @zkamvar: #114).
  • validators will provide full context for invalid links (not just link or text, but link with text).

DEPENDENCIES

  • tinkr’s minimum version has been set to 0.2.0 to recognise the release to CRAN and bring in new bugfixes.

pegboard 0.4.3 (2023-01-26)

NEW FEATURES

  • $validate_links() now checks if the URL protocol in an external link matches a known list of protocols. Those that do not match (e.g. javascript: and bitcoin:) will be flagged. (@zkamvar #109)

BUG FIX

  • A bug where attributes following an image would cause missing alt text to not be reported was fixed. (discovered: @dpshelio and @karenword; reported: @zkamvar #106; fixed: @zkamvar #108). This fix also makes the alt text parsing and validation more robust
  • A bug where an unknown protocol was not recognised as invalid was fixed. (discovered: @ndporter; reported: @zkamvar, #107; fixed: @zkamvar, #109)

INTERNALS

pegboard 0.4.2 (2023-01-10)

TESTS

  • A test that depended on an upstream resource was once again fixed.
  • Tests were modified to account for a new case for image fixing.

DOCUMENTATION

  • Internal fix_links() function has improved documentation.

pegboard 0.4.1 (2023-01-06)

TESTS

  • A test that dependend on an upstream resource was fixed.

pegboard 0.4.0 (2023-01-06)

DEPENDENCIES

  • The {tinkr} minimum version has been upgraded to 0.1.0.9000 to address the square bracket protection implemented in that version.

BUG FIX

  • Jekyll links with spaces are once again processed correctly. They were broken in the update to {tinkr} (reported: @zkamvar, #100; fixed: @zkamvar, #102)

MISC

  • GitHub workflows have been updated to run weekly.

pegboard 0.3.2 (2022-09-14)

DEPENDENCIES

  • Soft dependencty {cli} has been recommended at 0.3.4 to prevent reporting issues (see #97)
  • Soft dependencies ggraph, ggplot2, and tidygraph have been removed. These dependencies were only needed for producing a now-out-of-date survey document

pegboard 0.3.1 (2022-08-16)

MISC

In preparation for {tinkr} 0.1.0, which changes the path of the default stylesheet, we are using the tinkr::stylesheet() convenience function to access it.

pegboard 0.3.0 (2022-05-25)

NEW FEATURES

Episode class objects

  • $summary() method which can summarise counts of elements in the episode.
  • fixes for $error and $output active bindings
  • new $warning active binding that will show code blocks with the warning class.

Lesson class objects

  • new public field “built” that will contain XML representations of markdown files built from RMarkdown files in sandpaper lessons.
  • new public field “sandpaper” is a boolean that indicates if a lesson can be built with sandpaper.
  • new $load_built() method will load the built files if they exist in a sandpaper lesson.
  • new $get() method which will get any element from any Episode class object contained within.
  • new $summary() method which will call the $summary() method for any Episode class object.

Messages

  • muffle_messages() is an internal function that will muffle any messages that originate from the {cli} or {pegboard} packages.
  • If the {cli} package is not available, messages will have the class of pbMessage, which will allow end users/package authors to catch and manipulate any messages that originate from {pegboard}

pegboard 0.2.7 (unreleased, no user-visible changes)

TRANSFORMATION

  • make_pandoc_alt() (an internal converter function) will no longer create alt text from a caption if it contains a URL. This messes with the downstream validation of image links.
  • fix_sandpaper_links() now also fixes links that use {{ site.baseurl }}.

pegboard 0.2.6 (2022-05-11)

BUG FIX

  • fix_links() now processes links in headers and links with unescaped ampersands
    • internal function text_to_links() now processes unescaped ampersands
    • internal function find_lesson_links() no longer expects links to be strictly in paragraph elements.

pegboard 0.2.5 (2022-05-10)

MISC

pegboard 0.2.4 (2022-02-25)

DEPENDENCIES

pegboard 0.2.2 (2022-02-23)

NEW FEATURES

  • If getOption("sandpaper.links") is not NULL (in the context of a {sandpaper} lesson) and is a valid file, it will be appended to any file read in via Episode$new()

BUG FIX

  • $validate_links() no longer throws warnings about short or uninformative text for link anchors (@zkamvar, #81)

pegboard 0.2.1 (2022-02-18)

MISC

This is a soft release of {pegboard} to coincide with the first announcement of The Carpentries Workbench.

IMPORTS

  • {lifecycle} is no longer an imported package. We were not using it, so it makes more sense to leave it out in production.

NEW FEATURES

  • Jekyll-based lessons will now auto-detect and read in R Markdown content if it exists. The rmd flag for the Lesson initializer now does nothing.

pegboard 0.0.0.9026

BUG FIX

  • We now use the _config.yml file to parse site-specific liquid template links to fix #60

pegboard 0.0.0.9025

BUG FIX

  • RMarkdown episodes that had a setup chunk without specifying includes are now considered to have valid setup chunks and can have those chunks converted.

pegboard 0.0.0.9024

pegboard 0.0.0.9023

MISC

  • validation messages have been revamped to be more consistent across messages.
  • All validation methods in Episode and Lesson now return data frames that contain detailed information for each element and what tests were passed and what were failed for downstream analysis. Importantly, they all will contain a column called “node”, which points to the exact XML node containing the link/image/heading for inspection/manipulation.
  • validation reporting is no longer grouped by error
  • link validation information has been switched to show the error message and then the problematic aspect/fix
  • heading validation now works on continuous integration
  • these functions no longer rely on dplyr being installed

pegboard 0.0.0.9022

NEW FEATURES

  • The Episode class now gains the $confirm_sandpaper() method to bypass the assumption that all Episodes start as kramdown-formatted documents and will attempt to label divs in the episode (with a warning if there is no success).
  • The Lesson class will now run the $confirm_sandpaper() method for all markdown files if jekyll = FALSE.
  • Lesson$new() will now default to the current working directory.

MISC

pegboard 0.0.0.9021

NEW FEATURES

  • Link validation now checks for more general uninformative link text and empty links (@zkamvar, #49)
  • make_link_table() will treat linebreaks in link text as a space character.

pegboard 0.0.0.9020

NEW FEATURES

  • The Lesson class now has the $validate_links() and $validate_headings() methods. (@zkamvar, #48)

pegboard 0.0.0.9019

NOTE: All of these are from (@zkamvar, #44)

NEW FEATURES

  • The Episode class now has the $links and $images active bindings that extracts the links and images (markdown and HTML) from the document.
  • make_link_table() creates a table of links parsed via xml2::url_parse() with additional information about caption and alternative text (for images).
  • The Episode class now has the $validate_links() method, which will validate links and images for common errors such as not using https and unresolved relative links.
  • Episode$use_sandpaper() now converts images to use alt text over captions. Images that had ![alt](link) are converted to ![](link){alt='alt'} because pandoc uses everything in square brackets to be caption text. NOTE: this now makes a copy of the XML document.

BUG FIXES

  • Episode$new() gains the argument fix_liquid, which fixes liquid variables in relative links before they are passed to {tinkr} (https://github.com/carpentries/pegboard/issues/46)
  • Post-processed links via fix_links() retains their sourcepos attribute (fixed in e5508cc9c9a3821381293bdac12647edfbc0608e).
  • Episode$lesson no longer assumes that the episode is inside a sub-folder (fixed in 63432ef83ecc41a6aab53fe768e8eaec107278d5).

  • Episode$validate_headings() now properly displays duplicated headings. (@zkamvar, #45)

pegboard 0.0.0.9017

  • The Lesson class now respects the order of the contents in config.yaml (#42 via #43)

pegboard 0.0.0.9016

  • the Episode class now has the $headings active binding and the $validate_headings() method to validate headings (#23 via #41)
  • We now use {testthat} 3e for our tests
  • Cloning an Episode object is now more reliable

pegboard 0.0.0.9015

  • the Episode class is now a sub-class of the tinkr::yarn class and gains the show(), head(), tail(), and protect_math() methods.

pegboard 0.0.0.9014

  • Innocent block quotes that have not been sullied by the ruthless kramdown postfix operators are kept as block quotes instead of failing on $unblock() conversion.

pegboard 0.0.0.9013

  • The omnipresent {% include links.md %} is now removed on sandpaper conversion.

pegboard 0.0.0.9012

  • Lesson class will now work with {sandpaper} (#24) with a new parameter jekyll

pegboard 0.0.0.9010

pegboard 0.0.0.9009

pegboard 0.0.0.9008

  • $label_divs() no longer modifies the fenced divs.
  • @dtag labels attached to html_block and paragraph elements are now replaced by <dtag> elements that live within a custom namespace called “pegboard”. This allows us to avoid manipulating the document paragraph structure in the case of fenced divs.
  • $get_divs() now includes the div tags/fences in the output.
  • Internally, namespace handling has gotten marginally better where the default namespace prefix is modified to md:.
  • fenced divs are no longer manipulated on labelling.
  • A new test expectation, expect_moved_yaml() tests that a yaml element was successfully moved to the body of the document.

pegboard 0.0.0.9007

  • $keypoints and $objectives now are available and act like $questions
  • The $move_*() methods will now add an h2 header to the block
  • The $move_*() methods will use pandoc syntax instead of html div blocks.
  • Internal changes to creation of elements no longer relies on complex namespace juggling

pegboard 0.0.0.9006

  • $label_divs() method now will label any div tags in the episode
  • $move_* methods will now auto-label div tags
  • $questions field now returns the questions block or yaml header as a character vector.

pegboard 0.0.0.9005

  • pandoc-style fenced divs are now processed the same as native div tags
  • @dtag labels are now in the format div-{n}-{class} where {n} is the sequential number in the document and {class} is the type of div.
  • labelling of @dtags is more straightforward and will label the tags sequentially.

pegboard 0.0.0.9004

The changes in this version largely are enhancements for handling div tags and conversion. See #9 for details

  • $unblock() defaults to converting to div tags unless $use_sandpaper() has been called.
  • $unblock() will auto-name ALL the divs with {class}-div-{number}
  • $move_* functions will now name the html_blocks
  • $get_divs() returns div tags in a named list
  • $challenges will now find either blocks, divs or code, depending on the mutations
  • $soltuions same as challenges (see above)
  • $use_dovetail() will warn the user if the body is empty
  • $use_sandpaper() will do the same

pegboard 0.0.0.9003

Jekyll-specific and relative links are now converted as part of use_sandpaper().

NEW FUNCTION

  • fix_sandpaper_links() will fix relative paths and jekyll-specific links inside of lessons that have not yet otherwise been converted.

pegboard 0.0.0.9002

This version introduces conversions that work together and can be chained to convert an episode from the old Jekyll style to the new {sandpaper} style. Things are still very much in development though.

  • conversions for sandpaper and dovetail are clearly separated
  • the Episode class understands what conversions have been performed with a private logical vector that tracks changes.
  • pkgdown site is now built automatically from github actions

NEW EPISODE METHODS

  • use_dovetail() inserts a setup chunk at the top of the file
  • use_sandpaper() converts chunks from their liquid/kramdown syntax to the commonmark or RMD syntax
  • move_*() will generate a dovetail block or just a plain div block depending on whether or not use_dovetail() has been called.
  • remove_output() does what it says on the tin
  • remove_error() removes error code blocks
  • $output and $error can now grab output and error chunks that were converted via use_sandpaper()

pegboard 0.0.0.9001

  • Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.
  • Dependencies on {yaml} and {commonmark} now explicit
  • Added methods to Episode class to move questions, objectives, and keypoints out of the YAML and into the lesson body.
