v1.1.1

[jhollway]

Package

• Added a reverse dependency job to the PR checks workflow

Coercion

• Added parsing of a day of the year, e.g. "the 103rd day of 2026" (closes Parse EDTF ordinal dates (2019-123) #97)
  • Gives "2026-04-13"; "2026-103" notation is still rejected as ambiguous
• Added parsing of a week of the year, e.g. "the 5th week of 2026" (closes Parse EDTF week dates (2019-W12) #96)
  • Gives the range "2026-01-26..2026-02-01"
  • Weeks follow ISO 8601, so week 1 can start in December of the year before
  • "2026-W05" and "2026-W05-3" are read too, but recorded as dates/ranges
• Updated the documentation of seasons in prose, e.g. "summer 2026" (closes Parse EDTF season codes (2019-21 … 2019-41) #98)
  • Gives the northern-hemisphere month range "2026-06..2026-08"
  • "2026-22" season codes are still rejected as ambiguous
• Improved the errors for ordinal dates and season codes to name the prose form
• Fixed "before" and "after" keeping both bounds of a range that followed
  • "before summer 2026" gave "..2026-06..2026-08" and now gives "..2026-06"
• Fixed prose naming an impossible date becoming NA without a warning
  • "the 53rd week of 2025" now warns, as other unparseable text does

Pull request overview

Release v1.1.1 updates {messydates} coercion to better handle year-relative prose (day-of-year, ISO week/year phrasing, and documented seasons), improves diagnostics, and adds CI coverage to catch downstream breakage.

Changes:

• Add parsing for “nth day of YYYY”, “nth week of YYYY”, and ISO week-date inputs, producing concrete dates/ranges.
• Improve coercion diagnostics (clearer unsupported-format errors, and warnings for impossible prose like “53rd week of 2025”) and fix open-range bounds when the bound is itself a range.
• Add a reverse-dependency check job to PR CI.

R/coerce_to_messydate.R:1111

• This comment still says the season/relative-period parsing is “deliberately undocumented”, but this PR adds/updates user-facing documentation for seasons in prose; updating the comment keeps internal documentation consistent with the public docs.

  # Seasons and relative parts of a year, expressed as month ranges rather than
  # EDTF season codes (deliberately undocumented; only applied to a plain year,
  # so a decade or century keeps precedence above). Northern-hemisphere
  # meteorological seasons; thirds of the year for early/mid/late.
