Changelog • codename

codename 0.5.0

CRAN release: 2023-02-06

codename_message() will now display the version of R for the user as well. This should add in greater transparency in the event R changes its seed generator again.
Added nicka_blocks to data sets available in the package.
Added ‘nicka’ type to codename() and variety_pack().
Updated documentation for codename() and variety_pack().

CRAN release: 2021-09-07

Ensure adjectives starting with capital letters can be matched to no animal names. Thank you @lemna for pointing this out and fixing it.
Add some adjectives and animals starting with x (HT: @lemna).

CRAN release: 2021-06-24

Change char2seed() function and move old version of it to char2seed_v1(). This does not affect codename(), beyond the seed supplied for output.

CRAN release: 2021-05-10

Add codename_message() to display package version in console. This may matter for future updates that alter the underlying data, which can change the output from a reproducible seed.
Add variety_pack() function for sampling the wares, with (optional) reproducible seed.
Remove “list” from animals. This was a function of copy-pasting a list I found somewhere, which itself was just copy-pasted or scraped without a lot of inspection to the output.
Fix “chantio” to “chantico” in gods. My bad.
Scrub documentation instances of “codename” to “code name.” The former works well for the function and package name, but “code name” is proper English. I don’t think anyone will notice or care.
Force “any” options to be lowercase. Basically, the inclusion of the Wu-Tang names results in the mismatch. codename will permit title case only for the Wu-Tang name generator component of this package.
Add set.seed(NULL) at the top line of codename(). Basically, R’s set.seed() is designed to be at the top-level of the script. It means if you run a seed once, the path is pre-determined afterward and the code name generation follows the same path.
Configure website with pkgdown.
