optic 1.2.2

New features

  • Clustered standard error support for autoeffect models, delegating to autoeffect::cumulative_effects(cluster=). Unsupported SE adjustments (huber, arellano) now warn and skip. (#37)

Internal changes

  • Moved SE adjustment behavior into the model type registry, replacing if-else chain in noconf_postmodel(). (#37)

optic 1.2.1

Improvements

  • Autoeffect models now extract covariates from the formula RHS like reg/autoreg models, eliminating separate x_formula or cov_names parameters. Deprecation warnings added for the old interface. (#36)

Internal changes

  • Restored match.arg() for type and call validation in new_optic_model() constructor. (#35)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed GitHub Actions workflow errors: resolved missing knitr dependencies for vignette building and covr conflicts with parallel test execution. (#34)

optic 1.2.0

New features

  • Added type="autoeffect" model type support to the simulation framework. (6b791fe)

Internal changes

  • Refactored model-specific behavior out of method scripts into central registry in model-type-behaviors.R, consolidating duplicated if/else chains. (f92688f)
  • Consolidated duplicated SE adjustment code into centralized helper functions. (005e88c)

optic 1.1.3

New features

  • Enhanced validation system for model specifications, improving error messages and catching configuration issues earlier.
  • Introduced snapshot testing for simulation results to ensure consistent output structure across versions.

Improvements

  • Major refactoring of dispatch_simulations() function for improved clarity and maintainability.
  • Enhanced optic_model class with better validation and documentation.
  • Replaced deprecated purrr::cross() with tidyr::expand_grid() for more reliable parameter expansion.
  • Improved vignettes with updated examples using refactored functions.
  • Clarified package description and documentation.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed parameter handling in dispatch_simulations() where params list structure was incorrect.
  • Fixed expand_grid issue in parameter combinations.
  • Fixed no-confounding method tests to use correct outcome variables.
  • Corrected CRAN check issues related to dispatch_simulations documentation.
  • Fixed vignette build issues (#22).

Internal changes

  • Removed augsynth from package dependencies to move to Suggests (addresses installation issues on some platforms).
  • Improved GitHub Actions workflows with separate test and check workflows for better CI/CD reliability.
  • Added comprehensive snapshot tests for confounding and no-confounding methods.
  • Updated NAMESPACE to remove unused exports.
