Release History of the airGRteaching Package

0.2.13 Release Notes (2022-02-03)

Bug fixes

• bug fixed in PrepGR() and by consequence in ShinyGR() when the dataset given to the ObsDF argument is a tibble object. (#49)

User-visible changes

• in order to avoid duplicated warning messages, the use of the .onAttach() command has been removed from the ShinyGR() function, because it is already call from the dyplot() function which is use in ShinyGR(). (#50)
• the ‘Model diagram’ plot exported from the GUI launched by ShinyGR() has been resized to avoid to wide title when the the parameter values are large. (#54)
• the deprecated icon names from ‘Font Awesome’ have been updated to avoid warning messages when the ShinyGR() function is used. (#51)

Version control and issue tracking

• the CI/CD runner now uses a R docker image. (#55)

CRAN-compatibility updates

• The FUN_CRIT deprecated argument (since ‘airGR’ 1.2.13.16) has been removed from the use of Calibration() call by the CalGR() function. (#56)

0.2.12 Release Notes (2021-08-06)

Bug fixes

• bug fixed in the GUI launched by ShinyGR(), it is possible to the export the GR2M model diagram PNG file again. (#40)

User-visible changes

• displaying a message when the package is attached from RStudio and also when the GUI is launched by ShinyGR() in order to warn users about GUI instability problems. (#46)
• added explanation of the use of the GR5H model in the PrepGR() help page. (#41)
• the text relating to the GR2M model in the ‘GUI Help’ image displayed by the GUI launched by ShinyGR() is corrected. (#42)
• replace the use of class() by inherits() in order to test the classes of inputs in all functions. (#45)

Version control and issue tracking

• automatic tests implemented in the package. (#44)

0.2.11 Release Notes (2021-06-07)

Bug fixes

• bug fixed in ShinyGR() when the date column of ObsDF has another name as ‘DatesR’. (#38)

User-visible changes

• the as.data.frame S3 methods have been set for classes PrepGR, CalGR and SimGR. (#39)
• the useless airGRt class and the as.data.frame.airGRt S3 method no longer exist (#39)

0.2.10.112 Release Notes (2021-01-23)

New features

• GUI, launched by the ShinyGR() function, can now run on monthly time series, using the GR2M model (#14)

Bug fixes

CRAN-compatibility updates

• now depends on R >= 3.6.0 in order to be sure to have the packages ‘shiny’ >= 1.1.0 and ‘htmlwidgets’ >= 1.5.3 available (#5)
• now depends on ‘airGR’ >= 1.6.9.27. ‘airGRteaching’ uses the new ‘Ps’ output of the RunModel_GR2M function (#51) and the new SeriesAggreg() function (#25, #41, #43) from ‘airGR’
• now suggests ‘htmlwidgets’ >= 1.5.3, available on the CRAN. It avoids troubles with the use of dynamic graphics of the ‘dygraphs’ package (called by the dyplot*() and the ShinyGR() functions) (#5)

0.2.9.25 Release Notes (2020-10-19)

New features

User-visible changes

• the theme agument of the ShinyGR() function now works even if a wrong character case is used

CRAN-compatibility updates

• when the package is attached or when the dyplot() and the ShinyGR() function are used, a message warns the users if they use a version of ‘htmlwidgets’ < 1.5.2.9000. The latest version of this package, available on GitHub, avoids troubles with the use of dynamic graphics of the ‘dygraphs’ package (called by the dyplot*() and the ShinyGR() functions) (#5)

0.2.8.69 Release Notes (2020-02-28)

New features

• added as.data.frame.airGRt() method in order to create a data.frame from outputs of PrepGR(), CalGR() and SimGR() functions. This data.frame always presents the same structure and contains observed flow, simulated flow, simulated solid precipitation fraction, etc. When it does not make sense, the concerned column is assigned with NA values (e.g. Qsim with the PrepGR() function)
• a digital object identifier (DOI) now allows to identify the manual of the ‘airGRteaching’ package. When you use airGRteaching in your work, please always cite both the article and the manual. The last one allows to know the version of the package that is used in order to enhance reproducible research. The references can be displayed with the citation("airGRteaching") command
• two themes of alternative stylesheet are available ("Inrae" and "Saclay") using the theme agument of the ShinyGR() function

Deprecated and defunct

• CalGR argument is now deprecated in the SimGR() function. It has been replaced by the use of the Param argument which can be set by an object of the class CalGR or by a vector of parameters

Bug fixes

• ShinyGR() now runs when independent arguments (DatesR, Precip, etc.) are used instead of the ObsDF argument

User-visible changes

• it is now possible to use the GR4H and GR5H hourly models with or without CemaNeige. For that, in the PrepGR(), the HydroModel argument could be set to "GR4H" or "GR5H". In the GUI, launched by ShinyGR() function, nothing changed, only the daily models are available. So, now airGRteaching depends on the version of ‘airGR’ >= 1.4.3.52) (#7)
• it is now possible to run the PrepGR() function when discharge is not provided in Qobs. If it is the case, the CalGR() function will return an error message because it is not possible to calibrate the model. The SimGR() function will return a warning message because it is not possible to compute any efficiency criterion
• it is now possible to run the ShinyGR() function when discharge is not provided in Qobs
• when observed discharge is provided in ShinyGR(), the first plotting panel now draws the flow error time series (#4)
• plot() function is now exported
• dyplot.PrepGR(), dyplot.CalGR() and dyplot.SimGR() functions are no longer exported
• there is now only one help page for all plot.*() functions (use ?plot to call it)

CRAN-compatibility updates

• when the package is loaded, a message warns the users if they use a version of ‘htmlwidgets’ < 1.5.1.9000. The latest version of this package, available on GitHub, avoids troubles with the use of dynamic graphics of the ‘dygraphs’ package (called by the dyplot*() and the ShinyGR() functions) (#5)

0.2.6.29 Release Notes (2019-05-02)
