Bug fixes

targets 0.14.1

• Fix the command inserted for debug mode (#975).
• Set empty chunk options to ensure Target Markdown compatibility with the special "setup" chunk (#973, @KaiAragaki).
• Only store the first 50 warnings in the metadata, and cap the text of the warning messages at 2048 characters (#983, @thejokenott).
• Enhance the tar_destroy() help file (#988, @Sage0614).
• Implement destroy = "user" in tar_destroy().

Extend RNG seed functionality

targets 0.14.0

• Move #!/bin/sh line to the top of SLURM clustermq template file (#944, #955, @GiuseppeTT).
• Add new function tar_path_script().
• Rename tar_store() to tar_path_store() with deprecation.
• Rename tar_path() to tar_path_target() with deprecation.
• Add new function tar_path_script_support().
• Make Target Markdown target scripts dynamically locate their support scripts so the appropriate scripts can be found even when they are generated from one directory and sourced from another (#953, #957, @TylerGrantSmith).
• Allow user-side control of the seeds at the pipeline level. tar_option_set() now supports a seed argument, and target-specific seeds are determined by tar_option_get("seed") and the target name. tar_option_set(seed = NA) disables seed-setting behavior but forcibly invalidates all the affected targets except when seed is FALSE in the target's tar_cue() (#882, @sworland-thyme, @joelnitta).
• Implement a seed argument in tar_cue() to control whether targets update in response to changing or NA seeds (#882, @sworland-thyme, @joelnitta).
• Reduce the number of per-target AWS/GCP storage API calls. Previously there were 3 API calls per target, including 2 HEAD requests. Now there is just 1 for a typical target (unless dependencies have to be downloaded). Relies on S3 strong read-after-write consistency (#958).
• Update the tar_github_actions() workflow file to use @v2 (#960, @kulinar).
• Print helpful hints while debugging a target interactively (#961).
• Only attempt to debug a target when callr_function is NULL (#961).
• Make formats "feather", "parquet", "file", and "url" work with error = "null" (#969).
• Declare formats "keras" and "torch" superseded by tar_format(). Documented in the tar_target() help file.
• Declare formats "keras" and "torch" incompatible with error = "null". Documented in the tar_target() help file and in a warning thrown by tar_target() via tar_target_raw().
• Add a convert argument to tar_format() to allow custom store_convert_object() methods (#970).

tidyselect compat

targets 0.13.5

• Use any_of() instead of all_of() in tests to ensure compatibility with tidyselect 1.1.2.9000 (#928, @hadley).
• Make the run.R from use_targets() executable (#929, @petrbouchal).
• Add #!/usr/bin/env Rscript to the top of run.R from use_targets() (#929, @petrbouchal).

Reduce CRAN check time

targets 0.13.4

• Implement custom alternative to skip_on_cran() to avoid r-lib/testthat#1470 (comment).
• Skip more tests on CRAN.

Package data and error messages

targets 0.13.3

Enhancements

• Print "no targets found" when there are no targets in the pipeline to check or build, or if the name\ s argument of tar_make() does not identify any such targets in the pipeline (#923, @llrs).
• Ignore .packageName, .__NAMESPACE__., and .__S3MethodsTable__. when importing objects from pack
  ages with the imports option of tar_option_set().
• Import datasets from packages in the imports option of tar_option_set() (#926, @joelnitta).
• Print target-specific elapsed runtimes in the verbose and timestamp reporters.
• Improve error messages in functions like tar_read() and tar_load() when the data store is missing.

Nicer error handling

targets 0.13.2

Bug fixes

• Do not incorrectly reference feather resources for parquet storage.

Enhancements

• Simplify and improve error handling.
• In the command column of tar_manifest() output, separate lines with "\n" instead of "\n" so the text output is straightforward to work with.
• Add a drop_missing argument to tar_manifest() to hide/show columns with all NA values.
• Do not set Parquet version.

Fix reverse dependency checks

targets 0.13.1

• Fix reverse dependency checks.

{paws} options and tar_source()

targets 0.13.0

Bug fixes

• Do not bootstrap the junction of a stem unless the target is branched over (#858, @dipterix).
• For non-"file" AWS targets, immediately delete the scratch file after the target is uploaded (#889, @stuvet).

New features

• Allow extra arguments to paws functions via ... in tar_resources_aws() (#855, @michkam89).
• Add tar_source() to conveniently source R scripts (e.g. in _targets.R).

Enhancements

• Color ordinary targets messages the default theme color, and color warnings and errors red (#856, @gorkang).
• Automatically supply job names in the scripts generated by use_targets().
• Inherit resources one-by-one in nested fashion from tar_option_get("resources") (#892). See the revised "Resources" section of the tar_resources() help file for details.

Improvements to use_targets(), tar_mermaid(), and error printing

targets 0.12.1

New features

• Add arguments legend and color to further configure tar_mermaid() (#848, @noamross).
• For HPC schedulers like SLURM and SGE, use_targets() now creates a job.sh script to run the pipeline as a cluster job (#839).

Enhancements

• Use lapply() to source scripts in use_targets(). Avoids defining a global variable for the file.
• Recursively find scripts to source in the use_targets() _targets.R file.
• Refactor error printing.

A better use_targets(), tar_load_everything(), and bug fixes

targets 0.12.0

Bug fixes

• Fix tar_mermaid() graph ordering.
• Hash the node names and quote the label names of tar_mermaid() graphs to avoid JavaScript keywords.
• Remove superfluous line breaks in the node labels of graph visuals.
• Fix metadata migration to version >= 0.10.0 (#812, @tjmahr).
• data.table::fread() with encoding equal to getOption("encoding") if available (#814, @svraka). Only works with UTF-8 and latin1 because that is what data.table supports.
• Force add files in GitHub Actions workflow job (#815, @tarensanders).

New features

• use_targets() now writes a _targets.R file tailored to the project in the current working directory (#639, @noamross).
• Move the old use_targets() to use_targets_rmd().

Enhancements

• Load packages when loading data for downstream targets in the pipeline (#713).
• Handle edge case when getOption("OutDec") is not "." to prevent time stamps from being corrupted (#433, @jarauh).
• Added helper function tar_load_everything() to quickly load all targets (#823, @malcolmbarrett)
