Version 0.9.5 (2026-10-05)

• removed the package vignette, which relied on a live call to the BCB API and caused intermittent CRAN check errors (‘from’ must be a finite number) when the service was unreachable while re-building vignettes
• dropped ‘VignetteBuilder’ from DESCRIPTION accordingly

Version 0.9.4 (2026-09-20)

• added new function gbcbd_search_series() to search the BCB-SGS catalog by text
• added ‘xml2’ dependency to parse the BCB-SGS search results
• the search supports caching (use_memoise/cache_path) and pagination (max_results)

Version 0.9.3 (2026-09-20)

• renamed function arguments and internal variables to snake_case
• old dot-case argument names (first.date, format.data, etc.) still work as deprecated aliases, with a warning
• renamed output columns to snake_case: ref_date, id_num and series_name (breaking change)
• updated documentation, README and vignette

Version 0.9.2 (2026-09-20)

• fixed wide format output when a requested series fails (columns are now consistent with successful calls)
• fixed duplicated/zero-length period when the queried date span is a multiple of the sequential interval
• made the sequential-fetching threshold consistent with the documented 10-year API limit
• cleaned up query_api retry loop and suppressed HTTP warnings before retrying
• be.quiet is now respected in the per-series helper; fetch failures are reported instead of a misleading success message
• strengthened argument validation (id, dates and logical arguments)
• removed unused ‘utils’ dependency
• test suite cleanup (removed duplicated tests, added regression tests)

Version 0.9.1 (2026-02-02)

• now using parallelly::availableCores() (fixes #12)
• now using future::nbrOfWorkers()
• other code improvements

Version 0.9.0 (2025-04-22)

• added new sequential method for querying with diff_year < 10 years (this fixes #11)

Version 0.8.0 (2025-03-07)

• Fixed bcb url to https
• fixed example of main function gbcbd_get_series()
• added time difference control for any request with diff year > 10 (the api blocks such requests..)

• Fixed cran notes by removing some of unnecessary packages.

Version 0.6 (2021-03-15)
