REDCapCAST 23.3.1

New name: REDCapCAST

To reflect new functions and the limitation to only working in R, I have changed the naming of the fork, while still, of course, maintaining the status as a fork.

The versioning has moved to a monthly naming convention.

Functions:

  • read_redcap_tables() NEW: this function is mainly an implementation of the combined use of REDCapR::readcap_read() and REDCap_split() to maintain the focused nature of REDCapR::readcap_read(), to only download the specified data. Also implements tests of valid form names and event names. The usual fall-back solution was to get all data.

  • redcap_wider() NEW: this function pivots the long data frames from read_redcap_tables() using tidyr::pivot_wider().

  • focused_metadata() NEW: a hidden helper function to enable a focused data acquisition approach to handle only a subset of metadata corresponding to the focused dataset.
