Defined the null-coalescing operator %||%
internally. It was used by .evo_post() and
send_contact() but is only part of base R since 4.4.0, so
the package failed to load on R 4.2–4.3 (the declared minimum is R
4.2.0).
send_*() functions now normalise the recipient
number, stripping formatting characters (spaces, dashes,
parentheses and a leading +) before the request. Previously
a number such as "+5581999990000" was sent verbatim and
could be rejected by the API, even though it was shown as valid in the
documentation. JIDs (values containing @, e.g. group ids
...@g.us) are passed through unchanged.
.normalize_media() no longer silently treats a
mistyped file path as base64. It now requires standard (padded) base64
and emits a path-aware error pointing at the resolved location when a
file is not found.
Corrected the copyright holder in LICENSE, which
still referenced an unrelated package.
Unified the API reference URL across README and
DESCRIPTION
(https://evoapicloud.com).
Removed a dead “apikey” redaction branch in the verbose logger (the API key is only ever sent as a header, never in the request body).
Added a testthat suite covering the offline helpers
(jid(), .normalize_media(),
.compact(), .evo_path(),
.assert_scalar_string()) and the argument-validation guard
clauses of the exported send_*() functions and
evo_client().
Added .Rhistory and .DS_Store to
.Rbuildignore.
evoapi.timeout to evolution.timeout to match
the package name. The previous option name was silently ignored due to a
mismatch between zzz.R and the internal request function
(#1).send_list(): sends interactive list messages with
sections and selectable rows, mapping to the Evolution API v2
sendList endpoint.
check_is_whatsapp(): verifies whether phone numbers
are registered on WhatsApp via the chat/whatsappNumbers
endpoint.
print.evo_client(): new S3 print method that
displays instance name and base URL when inspecting a client
object.
.evo_post() now extracts and surfaces the actual API
error message from the JSON response body (fields
response$message or message), instead of
showing a generic “Evolution API error (status)” string.
Non-JSON error responses (e.g., HTML from a 502/503 gateway error) are now handled gracefully instead of crashing with a parse error.
All send_*() functions now validate required
arguments up front with clear {cli} error messages (e.g.,
"'number' must be a single non-empty character string").
evo_client() uses descriptive
cli::cli_abort() messages instead of
stopifnot(), with hints like
"Use Sys.getenv(\"EVO_APIKEY\")" for the API key
argument.
Verbose output now includes response timing (e.g.,
✔ HTTP 201 (0.34s)).
Verbose output now shows a preview of the response body (first 500 characters) to help with debugging.
Large base64 media fields are truncated in verbose
logs to keep output readable.
jid() now strips all non-digit characters (including
+) before appending @s.whatsapp.net.
Previously, jid("+5581...") produced an invalid JID with
the + preserved.
send_list(): footer parameter now
defaults to "" instead of NULL, because the
Evolution API requires footerText to be present in the
request body (HTTP 400 otherwise).
send_sticker() and
send_whatsapp_audio() now pass media through
.normalize_media(), enabling local file paths (e.g.,
"~/Downloads/sticker.webp") to be auto-encoded to base64.
Previously only send_media() supported this.
.normalize_media() now calls
path.expand() so that ~ in file paths is
correctly resolved to the user’s home directory.
send_whatsapp_audio() removed unused parameters
(link_preview, mentions_everyone,
mentioned) that are not part of the
sendWhatsAppAudio API endpoint.
send_buttons() now emits a
cli::cli_warn() at runtime alerting that interactive
buttons are not supported on the Baileys (WhatsApp Web)
connector and may be discontinued. The warning suggests
send_poll() as an alternative.
send_list() now emits a cli::cli_warn()
at runtime alerting that interactive list messages are not
supported on the Baileys (WhatsApp Web) connector and may be
discontinued. The warning suggests send_poll() as an
alternative.
Fixed author name typo in DESCRIPTION: “Vaconcelos” → “Vasconcelos”.
README now accurately lists all exported functions including
send_list() and check_is_whatsapp().
README includes new sections: verbose output example,
configuration table, and send_list() /
check_is_whatsapp() usage examples.
All roxygen documentation improved with
@description, @examples, @seealso
cross-references, and more specific @return
descriptions.
Added jsonlite to Imports (used for
response preview in verbose mode).
