contactsurveys 0.1.0

CRAN release: 2026-01-31

This is a new package split off from the socialmixr package. It handles all interaction with the Zenodo repository containing social contact surveys, including listing available data sets, downloading data sets, and obtaining citations.

• Added NEWS file
• Added verbosity to list_surveys()
• Added get_citation() - Resolves #38
• Added bibtex citation style as default to get_citation() - Resolves #52
• Fixed verbosity issue by importing purrr::quietly - Resolves #68
• Improved cache management by avoiding unnecessary Zenodo API calls by storing each survey in a subdirectory named after the survey’s DOI/URL basename — Resolves #72
• Added rate argument to download_survey() and list_surveys() to allow for retrying download if it fails, in a sensible fashion, using purrr::insistently() - Resolves #72
• Added helpers to list and delete files and directories under contactsurveys_dir() ({ls_contactsurveys()}, {delete_contactsurveys_files()}, {delete_contactsurveys_dir()}, {delete_survey()}). Resolves #75, #76, #77
