CRediTas 0.2.0

Breaking changes

• Package name changed to CRediTas (#1)
• All function renamed to follow object_verb() convention. (#4)
  • create_template is template_create
  • read_template is template_read
  • write_cras is cras_write
• file argument in cras_write and in template_create no longer default to NULL, they are not provided by default. If missing, they behave like the old NULL value.

New features

• cras_write integrates better with literate programming such as rmarkdown and quarto. When file is NULL (new default), instead of writing a file, the function returns a string with the CRediT Author Statement. It works well with inline code in rmarkdown and quarto documents: r cras_write(cras_table, markdown = TRUE) (#2
• cras_write includes a new argument drop_authors, if set to FALSE, the authors without contributions are not removed from the statement. (#6)

Minor improvements and fixes

• The roles are created using the function roles_get() instead of hard coded. (#3)
• The former allows to check if authors’ roles are up-to-date comparing with [CRediT] (https://credit.niso.org/) (#3)
• Improvements on the documentation of all functions (#6)
• In cras_write, the default of markdown argument is TRUE.
• Added some checks to template_read to ensure that the format is correct. (#6)
• Added reviewers of ROpenScience to DESCRIPTION.
• CSS fixed in pkgdown.
• Description added to template_create documentation.
• Option to use fix() to edit the template is added to README and get_started vignette.
• Related packages added to README.
• template_create is more performant thanks to using matrix instead of data.frame to create the empty contributions.
