spocc v0.9.0

NEW FEATURES

• occ() now attempts to collect errors from requests that fail and puts these error messages (character strings) in the $meta$errors spot. We can not always collect errors, and some data providers do not error well: they do not provide a meaningful error message other than that there was an error. (#189) (#207)
• occ() gains new parameter throw_warnings (logical). By default set to TRUE (matches previous behavior) and throws warnings about errors that occur and when no results found for a query. We now prefix each warning with the data provider so you can match up an error or warning with a data provider and (hopefully) query. If set to FALSE, warnings are suppressed (#189) (#207)

DEFUNCT

• AntWeb has been removed from spocc. The AntWeb API has been down for a while, and no response from maintainers (#202) (#203)

BUG FIXES

• fixes to ebird internals - a new version of rebird on CRAN requires a few changes in parameters used. Importantly, ebird now wants species codes instead of full scientific names, but we internally attempt to handle this, so users still just pass scientific names (#205)

DOCUMENTATION

• make pkgdown docs better: organize functions into meaningful sets (#193) (#197) (#199)
• in the ?spocc_duplicates manual file for duplicate records, refer to scrubr and CoordinateCleaner packages (#198)
• in inspect() manual file, clarify what the function does (#194)
• now we document better when we use one or the other function for BISON data source (#204)
• occ() gains a return block with detail about what's returned from the function (#208)
