# REDCapCAST 24.4.1 - in development

### Functions
@ -8,9 +8,12 @@
* New: `create_instrument_meta()`: creates zip with instrument files to allow adding new instruments to project in production. Takes data dictionary as input and creates a zip for each instrument specified by the `form_name` column.
* New: `doc2dd()`: function to convert document table to data dictionary. This allows to specify instrument or whole data dictionary in text document, which for most is easier to work with and easily modifiable. The generic case is a data frame with variable names as values in a column. This is a format like the REDCap data dictionary, but gives a few options for formatting. Has a few related functions for data handling and formatting. One interesting function is `case_match_regex_list()`, which allows for a dynamic `dplyr::case_when()`-like approach for regex-matching. I think it is neat at least.
### Documentation and more
* Dependencies: In order to deploy `shiny_cast()` with `shinylive`, I need to remove `curl` as a dependency. To accomplish this, the `shiny_deploy()` helper functions has been moved to the package [`pacakge.aid`](https://github.com/agdamsbo/package.aid). This is for a rainy day: https://r-wasm.github.io/rwasm/. The whole shiny part may be migrated to its own project to try to separate things and be easy on dependencies. Time will tell.

This was before realising that `REDCapR` has `curl` as dependency, which is the culprit. `REDCapCAST` is not going to be a `shinylive` web-app without removing `REDCapR` dependency, which in the app is used for easy data upload and data dictionary deployment.
