dbplot 0.4.0 (2026-03-13)

Breaking Changes

• Package no longer re-exports the %>% pipe operator. Users should use R's native |> pipe (available in R >= 4.1.0) or load magrittr explicitly if they prefer %>%.
• Minimum R version increased from 3.1 to 4.1.0

Improvements

Dependencies and Infrastructure

• Updated all package dependencies to modern versions:
  • dplyr >= 1.0.0 (was >= 0.7)
  • rlang >= 1.0.0 (was >= 0.3)
  • ggplot2 >= 3.3.0 (was unversioned)
  • dbplyr >= 2.0.0 (was >= 1.4.0)
  • testthat >= 3.0.0 (was unversioned)
• Removed magrittr dependency (using native pipe)
• Migrated CI from Travis CI to GitHub Actions with multi-platform testing (macOS, Windows, Ubuntu with R devel/release/oldrel)
• Added automated test coverage reporting via codecov
• Added pkgdown site deployment automation

Code Quality

• All examples now use native pipe |> instead of %>%
• Fixed typos in code and documentation
• Improved S3 method exports using modern roxygen2 patterns
• Consolidated globalVariables() declarations for better maintainability
• Added input validation for bins, binwidth, and resolution parameters
• Modernized test suite to use testthat 3e patterns

Documentation

• Examples now use DuckDB instead of SQLite for better performance and boxplot support. DuckDB's native quantile() function enables complete database workflow demonstrations including boxplot examples
• Added comprehensive package-level documentation
• Updated all URLs to current Posit documentation sites
• Added CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md and CONTRIBUTING.md
• Enhanced pkgdown site with Bootstrap 5 theme and improved organization
