Changelog

PEITHO 26.04.2

Updates

  • Updated run.workflowstep() to always store output/error as lists
  • Extended test coverage to assert list-shaped output/error and list-shaped last_result
  • Added run_id to workflow run and state objects

PEITHO 26.04.1

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed loading of custom functions (from functions.R) into an environment for the “Browse functions” modal and adjusted save messaging for functions.R.
  • Fixed how custom workflow functions are loaded and surfaced in the Shiny UI and workflow execution, with the goal of picking up updated functions more reliably.

PEITHO 26.04.0

New Features

  • Added a “Folders & Files” tab to the Shiny app, enabling users to browse workflow directories, view and edit supported workflow files, and inspect package defaults and available functions. (#29)

Updates

  • Result selector support: extended workflow tag parsing to support optional selectors (e.g., [n], [a:b], [c(…)]), including extract_result_ref, new selector tag regex handling, and selector application during execution when resolving results from previous steps.

PEITHO 26.03.1

New Features

  • Added add_step() / remove_step() S3 generics + workflow methods and wire them into the Shiny workflow table UI (#28)
  • Add configurable workflow validation (error_on_warn) and additional validation checks (unique steps, numeric entries, required inputs/steps).
  • Introduced as.commands_record() generic + methods and update commands.json writing behavior; update docs and example commands.json.

PEITHO 26.03.0

New Features

  • Refactored workflowstep from operation/params to command/args and added required-field tracking for input/result tags.
  • Updated workflow file-loading helpers and associated tests/docs; adjusted WebText fetching to a structural extraction approach.
  • Added Shiny table modules (workflow/inputs/results) including option for editing step fields and input values, and the option to display full result content when clicked (#21).

PEITHO 26.02.3

New Features

  • Integrated workflow import and export functionality into the PEITHO Shiny application, enabling users to upload workflows from zip files and download them for sharing or backup. (#21)
  • Added a centralized YAML configuration file (inst/config.yaml) to manage app settings such as allowed file types and default import sources.

PEITHO 26.02.2

Updates

PEITHO 26.02.1

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed missing argument host in startApplication() function, allowing specification of the host address when starting the Shiny app.

PEITHO 26.02.0

New Features

  • Introduced as.data.frame() S3 methods for workflows, workflow runs, and workflow states, plus a new extract_inputs() helper.
  • Extended the Shiny app to build and execute an example workflow with progress tracking and tabular result views (#21).

PEITHO 26.01.3

New Features

  • Extended the example workflow to demonstrate sub-workflows, allowing sequential execution of multiple workflow segments (#14)
  • Sub-workflows can now reference results from earlier steps explicitly, enabling more complex, non-linear workflows.
  • Improved logging for loop execution, including clearer warnings when operations produce list-type results.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where result parameters always resolved to the last executed step, ignoring the referenced step label.
  • Workflow execution now uses cached state lookups to resolve result parameters by step name (and ID), ensuring correct dependency handling across steps.

PEITHO 26.01.2

Updates

  • Converted a warning into an informational message when creating a new results.json file if it does not yet exist.

PEITHO 26.01.1

New Features

  • Added import_workflow() to streamline workflow import from zip files.
  • Updated vignettes and examples to use the new import pattern.

PEITHO 26.01.0

New Features

  • Implemented export and import of workflows as zip bundles, enabling workflow sharing and reuse (#13).
  • Added save_as_zip() generic and workflow method for exporting workflows as zip files.
  • Enhanced the example workflow with multi-step data processing (including unlist, paste, substitute, and split operations).
  • Added a comprehensive vignette demonstrating workflow import/export capabilities.

PEITHO 25.12.0

New Features

  • Introduced a comprehensive workflow management system:
    • Define, execute, and track multi-step workflows
    • New core classes: workflow, workflowstep, workflowstate, workflowsteprun, operationparam
    • Robust workflow execution with error handling and result tracking
    • Support for file-based workflow configuration via JSON files

PEITHO 25.11.0

New Features

  • Added web text fetching capabilities to the PEITHO package, including:
    • A new WebText class for representing fetched web content.
    • The fetch_WebText function for retrieving and parsing HTML from URLs.
  • Implemented comprehensive tests for both the WebText class and the web text fetching functionality.
