NEW FEATURES

Objects of new DirectedGraph class now slot into the pkg_graph field of network reporters. These objects encapsulate the graph modeling of networks and have a more expressive set of methods for analysis. Check out the full documentation with ?DirectedGraph. (#181)
- Use pkg_graph$node_measures and pkg_graph$graph_measures to respectively calculate node-level and graph-level measures.
- Use pkg_graph$default_node_measures and pkg_graph$default_graph_measures to see the measures calculated by default.
- Use pkg_graph$available_node_measures and pkg_graph$available_graph_measures to see the all supported measures.
- The igraph object is now instead available at pkg_graph$igraph.

Standardizing on the language “dependency” and “reverse dependency” to describe the directed graph relationships in the package. This completes the change introduced in v0.3.0 where edge direction convention was set to point in the direction of dependency. So this means that “depend on” follows the edge arrow direction, and “reverse depends on” is reverse edge arrow direction. (#191, #181)
outSubgraphSize and inSubgraphSize have been replaced with numRecursiveDeps and numRecursiveRevDeps, which are the former minus one (by not counting the node itself). (#191, #181)
Per the new DirectedGraph feature, reporters’ pkg_graph field now contain an object of new DirectedGraph class. Previously it held an igraph object. This igraph object is now instead available at pkg_graph$igraph. See NEW FEATURES section for other details about the new pkg_graph object. (#181)
Default measures now exist for each reporter. These can be calculated with the new method calculate_default_measures on reporters. (#181)
- The report from CreatePackageReport will now only show default measures.
Reporters now only allow packages to be set once. To report on a new package, please instantiate a new instance of the reporter of interest. (#106, #181)
The report from CreatePackageReport now prints the version of pkgnet used at the bottom. (#181)

Static outputs shown in the vignette that were outdated have been updated. (#189, #181)

None

Added unit tests for network measure calculations (#166).
Revised unit test setup and teardown files to enable devtools::test() to work as well as CRAN server testing (#167)

Corrected node statistics table merging error (#165, #166)
Added a NAMESPACE entry for knitr to suppress warning on CRAN server checks (#168)

InheritanceReporter, a reporter for R6, Reference, and S4 class inheritance relationships within a package. (#14, #129)
Dropdown menu in graph visualizations for selecting which node to highlight. (#132, #143)

Edge direction reversed to align with UML dependency diagram convention. Now, if A depends on B, then A->B. (#131, #143)
Reporters now support all layouts available in igraph. Use grep("^layout_\\S", getNamespaceExports("igraph"), value = TRUE) to see valid options. (#143)
FunctionReporter now utilizes graphopt layout by default. (#143)
FunctionReporter now supports non-exported functions and R6 class methods. (#123, #128)
Orphaned node clustering was removed in favor of using layout to better handle graphs with many orphaned nodes. (#102, #143)
Testing strategy with subpackages are now CRAN and TRAVIS compatible. (#121, #139, #144)
Test package milne created for unit testing of InheritanceReporter and R6 method support in FunctionReporter. (#128, #129)
Width of html reports now adjust to size of screen. (#143)
Default node colors are now colorblind accessible. (#130, #141)
Additional various improvements to UX for package reports. (#143)
