v2.1.7 release

RavenR version 2.1.7 now on CRAN and released here.

Minor updates and bug fixes, including:

• added new functions including rvn_rvp_fill_template for filling in rvp template files, rvn_met_recordplot to show station record lenghts;
• added function for plotting subbasin network with interactive visNetwork library
• updated rvn_run with additional options, including adding rvi commands to the file before execution;
• added new model templates from Raven Manual v3.5 to rvn_rvi_write_template;
• enhancements to rvn_rvh_read for splitting subbasin and HRU information in separate files, other minor improvements; and
• bug fix in rvn_rvt_write for writing initial start date with correct month code;

v2.1.4 release

RavenR version 2.1.4 now on CRAN and released here.

2.1.4

Updates to a number of functions and new features implemented, including:

• removal of all dependencies on spatial packages (e.g. sf, raster),
  and removal of the netcdf-related functions;
• rvn_download and rvn_run to enable downloading and running Raven.exe within R;
• rvn_rvi_write_template to write model rvi files from templates in the Raven manual;
• rvn_budyko_plot to generate a budyko curve from model precip, AET, and PET;
• updates to rvi mapping, including improvements to add functionality from ggrepel library
  in spacing labels, and addition of the DiagrammeR library to support rvn_rvi_process_diagrammer;
• rvn_budyko_plot to generate a budyko curve from model precip, AET, and PET;
• updates to handling rvt reading and writing, which is now generic for all rvt types; and
• rvn_met_interpolate for performing inverse distance weighting interpolation to fill
  missing data values in meteorological data (works immediately with weathercan downloads).

v.2.0.0 Release

Major update to RavenR package, including:

• all core RavenR functions have an ‘rvn_’ prefix to specify the package origin;
• functions and input/output variables now use an underscore naming convention, rather than periods or camelCase;
• ggplot2 is now the default plotting library for plotting functions, and some plotting arguments have been reduced, as ggplot objects may be modified in post-production by the user;
• many new functions added;
• new sample data sets and examples, including tidying of all function examples and addition of netcdf files to test netcdf-related functions; and
• multiple bug fixes and improvements to handling rvi, rvh, and writing rvt files.

The version 2.0.0 of this package will be submitted to CRAN shortly, and is currently passing R CMD CHECK.

Stable version release October 1 2019
