Changes in version 0.2.2 (2026-10-02) - Release files are cached in the session's temporary directory by default. use_persistent_cache() opts in to a cache that survives the session, and options(likingInitiative.cache_dir = ) or LIKING_INITIATIVE_CACHE_DIR still name a directory directly. The package now writes nothing outside the temporary directory unless asked. - The database's DOI is cited in the package description. Changes in version 0.2.1 - Examples that download are guarded with @examplesIf interactive() rather than \donttest{}, so R CMD check runs none of them and leaves the cache untouched. - A pinned version = now downloads that version's files. Previously the version label was honoured in the cache path but the newest release's files were fetched, which would have silently drifted once a newer release existed. - Unknown versions fail with the list of published versions. - citation("likingInitiative") returns the database citation with its DOI. - Package metadata points at the liking-initiative organization; the test suite honours LIKING_INITIATIVE_RELEASE_DIR outside the monorepo and skips cleanly when no release is available. Changes in version 0.2.0 - Assets are fetched from Zenodo, so the package works without credentials. latest follows the concept DOI (10.5281/zenodo.22216442) and needs no package update when a new version is published. - Transient Zenodo statuses (429, 500, 502, 503, 504) are retried with backoff. - cite() returns the database citation with its DOI. - Six datasets carry repeated rating phases as timepoint; get_item() uses each dataset's first phase. Changes in version 0.1.0 - First release: catalogue listings, get_dataset(), get_item(), load_database(), citations, and a local asset cache, all backed by versioned release files rather than the live API.
