bbk 0.13.0

Breaking changes

• bbk_data(), bbk_series(), bis_data(), boi_data(), boj_data(), ecb_data(), nob_data(), and snb_data() now return date as a Date at every frequency. Annual observations use January 1, except BoJ fiscal years, which use April 1. Weekly, quarterly, and semiannual observations use the first day of the period rather than raw labels such as "2024-Q1". This fixes corrupted dates in results that mix annual and subannual series.

New features

• boi_data(), boi_dimension(), and boi_metadata() now support Bank of Israel (BoI) data.

Bug fixes

• banxico_data() and banxico_metadata() now enforce the API’s 20-series limit.
• banxico_data() and banxico_metadata() now include the full error messages returned by the Banxico API.
• bbk_data() can now combine series with different attributes.
• bbk_data() now keeps untranslated attribute values when English translations are unavailable, so unit is no longer missing.
• bbk_data(), bis_data(), and ecb_data() no longer treat observation attributes as series metadata.
• bbk_metadata(), bis_metadata(), boi_metadata(), and nob_metadata() now keep entries without a name in the requested language and set their names to NA.
• bbk_metadata(), bis_metadata(), boi_metadata(), ecb_metadata(), and nob_metadata() no longer return names nested inside codelists and concept schemes as separate rows.
• bbk_series() now keeps leading observations when a series has a shorter metadata header.
• bbk_series() now preserves commas in metadata fields.
• bbk_series() now returns a numeric value column and omits observations flagged as “Nothing exists”.
• bcb_fx_rates() now requires three-character currency codes.
• bde_data() now supports lang = "es".
• bde_latest() now reports unknown series keys instead of an internal error.
• bdp_data() now detects weekly, biweekly, and semiannual frequencies. It returns NA when there are too few observations to infer a frequency instead of assuming "annual".
• bdp_data() now returns correct values for requests covering more than one series, which previously landed on the wrong key and, for sparse responses, the wrong dates.
• bdp_data() now fetches every page of a result instead of only the first 10 series.
• bis_data() now uses TITLE_TS when a series has no TITLE.
• boc_data() now returns an empty table when the requested window has no observations, such as on a weekend.
• boc_fx_rates() now returns an empty table when the requested window has no rates.
• boe_data() now works outside English locales.
• boj_data() now dates fiscal half-year periods to April and October rather than treating them as calendar half-years.
• cnb_czeonia() now returns an integer volume column when no data are available.
• cnb_fx_other_rates() now requires either year_month or year. Omitting both previously returned an empty table rather than the documented latest month.
• ecb_fx_rates("latest") now works outside English locales.
• nbp_fx_rates() and nbp_gold() now reject end_date without start_date instead of ignoring it and returning the latest quotation.
• nob_data() now requests generic SDMX data and builds series keys from dimensions only. Dataflows with extra series attributes such as SEC therefore return valid keys.
• nob_data() now keeps dates and values aligned when observations have no value.
• nob_data() now supports dataflows without a FREQ dimension.
• onb_data() and onb_frequency() can now combine series with different attributes.
• onb_metadata() no longer fails for series whose metadata lists a single release.
• onb_toc() now matches each description to the correct element.
• srb_data() no longer makes a second request when only end_date is supplied.
• srb_series("groups") now flattens nested groups without error.

bbk 0.12.0

• bcb_data(), bcb_currencies(), bcb_fx_rates(), bcb_expectations(), bcb_inflation(), bcb_selic(), and bcb_top5() add support for Banco Central do Brasil (BCB) data, covering SGS series, currency lists and exchange rates, and Focus survey market expectations.
• banxico_data() and banxico_metadata() add support for the Banco de México (Banxico) SIE API, using an API key from BANXICO_KEY.
• nbp_fx_rates() and nbp_gold() now build the request path with the correct dates instead of integer day counts when start_date/end_date are supplied.

bbk 0.11.0

New features

• bdf_dimension() returns the dimension structure for a given Banque de France dataset.
• cnb_czeonia() returns the CZEONIA overnight reference rate from the Czech National Bank (CNB).
• cnb_data(), cnb_indicators(), cnb_dimension(), cnb_tree(), and cnb_snapshots() add support for the Czech National Bank (CNB) ARAD database, using an API key from CNB_ARAD_KEY.
• cnb_fx_other_rates() returns the Czech National Bank (CNB) monthly exchange rates for other (less commonly traded) currencies.
• cnb_fx_rates() and cnb_pribor() add support for Czech National Bank (CNB) exchange rate fixings and PRIBOR reference rates.
• snb_metadata() returns cube-level metadata (title, frequency, source, publication date) from the SNB data portal.
• snb_toc() returns the publication topic tree from the SNB data portal.

Bug fixes

• Data requests no longer abort when a series uses an unsupported frequency code; the code is kept and the date is returned unparsed.
• bbk_data() now returns the correct observations per series when querying multiple keys.
• bdp_data() now keeps missing observations as NA instead of returning an empty result.
• bis_data() and ecb_data() now keep dates and values aligned when a series has observations without a value.
• boc_data() now applies start_date and end_date when fetching a group, which were previously ignored.
• boj_data() no longer errors when a series omits both the English and Japanese translations of its name or unit.
• onb_data() no longer errors and returns an empty table when a series has no observations in the requested period.

bbk 0.10.0

• bbk_data(), bis_data(), and bdp_data() gained an updated_after argument for incremental retrieval of revised observations, matching the existing parameter on ecb_data(). All four now accept a Date, POSIXct, or ISO 8601 string.
• bis_data() now requests the SDMX generic data format explicitly, fixing a silent regression where the BIS endpoint started returning structure-specific data and the parser produced zero rows.
• Support for Banco de Portugal (BdP) data.
• Support for Bank of Japan (BoJ) data.
• Support for National Bank of Poland (NBP) exchange rates and gold prices.

bbk 0.9.0

• Add optional caching of API responses via options(bbk.cache = TRUE). Cached responses are stored for 1 day by default and can be customized with options(bbk.cache_max_age = seconds). Use bbk_cache_dir() to find the cache location and bbk_cache_clear() to clear it.
• Support for Bank for International Settlements (BIS) data.
• Support for Norges Bank (NoB) data.
• boc_data() now returns a value column instead of rate for consistency with other data functions.
• bde_latest() returns the most recently published value for one or more BdE series.
• bbk_dimension() returns the dimension structure for a given Bundesbank dataflow.
• bis_dimension() returns the dimension structure for a given BIS dataflow.
• ecb_data() gains an updated_after parameter to retrieve only observations updated after a given timestamp.
• ecb_dimension() returns the dimension structure for a given ECB dataflow.
• nob_dimension() returns the dimension structure for a given Norges Bank dataflow.
• snb_dimension() returns the dimension structure for a given SNB cube.
• srb_calendar() returns Swedish banking calendar day information.
• srb_cross_rates() computes cross exchange rates between two Riksbank currency series.
