<ul><li><p>Fix: <code><a href="../reference/ds2dd.html">ds2dd()</a></code>: uses correct default dd column names. Will be deprecated.</p></li>
<li><p>NEW: <code><a href="../reference/ds2dd_detailed.html">ds2dd_detailed()</a></code>: extension of the <code><a href="../reference/ds2dd.html">ds2dd()</a></code>, which serves to preserve as much metadata as possible automatically. Depends on a group of helper functions also introduced. Of special note is the <code><a href="../reference/guess_time_only_filter.html">guess_time_only_filter()</a></code>, which will try to guess which columns/variables should be formatted as time only formats. Supports hms time format. DETAILED INSTRUCTION AND VIGNETTE IS PENDING.</p></li>
<li><p>NEW: <code><a href="../reference/read_redcap_instrument.html">read_redcap_instrument()</a></code> convenience function to retrieve complete instrument. Goes a little against the focused approach. DETAILED INSTRUCTION IS PENDING.</p></li>

<ul><li>Fix: <code><a href="../reference/read_redcap_tables.html">read_redcap_tables()</a></code>: checking form names based on data dictionary to allow handling of non-longitudinal projects. Prints invalid form names and invalid event names. If invalid form names are supplied to <code><a href="https://ouhscbbmc.github.io/REDCapR/reference/redcap_read.html" class="external-link">REDCapR::redcap_read()</a></code> (which is the backbone), all forms are exported, which is not what we want with a focused approach. Invalid event names will give an output with a rather peculiar formatting. Checking of field names validity is also added.</li>

<ul><li>New: <code><a href="../reference/easy_redcap.html">easy_redcap()</a></code> function to ease the retrieval of a dataset with <code><a href="../reference/read_redcap_tables.html">read_redcap_tables()</a></code> with <code>keyring</code>-package based key storage, which handles secure API set, storage and retrieval. Relies on a small helper function, <code><a href="../reference/get_api_key.html">get_api_key()</a></code>, which wraps relevant <code>keyring</code>-functions. Includes option to cast the data in a wide format with flag <code>widen.data</code>.</li>
<li>Fix: <code><a href="../reference/REDCap_split.html">REDCap_split()</a></code>: when using this function on its own, supplying a data set with check boxes would fail if metadata is supplied as a tibble. Metadata is now converted to data.frame. Fixed.</li>

<li><p>New: <code><a href="../reference/strsplitx.html">strsplitx()</a></code> function to ease the string splitting as an extension of <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/strsplit.html" class="external-link">base::strsplit()</a></code>.

<li><p>New: <code>d2n()</code> function converts single digits to written numbers. Used to sanitize variable and form names in REDCap database creation. For more universal number to word I would suggest <code>english::word()</code> or <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/pkg/xfun/man/numbers_to_words.html" class="external-link">xfun::numbers_to_words()</a></code>, though I have not been testing these.</p></li>

<p>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.</p>
<p>The versioning has moved to a monthly naming convention.</p>
<p>The main goal this package is to keep the option to only export a defined subset of the whole dataset from the REDCap server as is made possible through the <code><a href="https://ouhscbbmc.github.io/REDCapR/reference/redcap_read.html" class="external-link">REDCapR::redcap_read()</a></code> function, and combine it with the work put into the REDCapRITS package and the handling of longitudinal projects and/or projects with repeated instruments.</p>

<ul><li><p><code><a href="../reference/read_redcap_tables.html">read_redcap_tables()</a></code> <strong>NEW</strong>: this function is mainly an implementation of the combined use of <code>REDCapR::readcap_read()</code> and <code><a href="../reference/REDCap_split.html">REDCap_split()</a></code> to maintain the focused nature of <code>REDCapR::readcap_read()</code>, 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.</p></li>
<li><p><code><a href="../reference/redcap_wider.html">redcap_wider()</a></code> <strong>NEW</strong>: this function pivots the long data frames from <code><a href="../reference/read_redcap_tables.html">read_redcap_tables()</a></code> using <code><a href="https://tidyr.tidyverse.org/reference/pivot_wider.html" class="external-link">tidyr::pivot_wider()</a></code>.</p></li>
<li><p><code><a href="../reference/focused_metadata.html">focused_metadata()</a></code> <strong>NEW</strong>: a hidden helper function to enable a focused data acquisition approach to handle only a subset of metadata corresponding to the focused dataset.</p></li>
