adaR 0.4.0

Breaking changes

• privately registered suffixes (github.io, blogspot.com, s3.amazonaws.com, ...) are now part of the public suffix list lookup (#65). public_suffix() and ada_get_domain() gained an icann_only argument, defaulting to FALSE; pass icann_only = TRUE for the previous behaviour.

  public_suffix("foo.github.io")                      # "github.io" (was "io")
  ada_get_domain("https://foo.github.io/p")           # "foo.github.io"
  ada_get_domain("https://foo.github.io/p", icann_only = TRUE)  # "github.io"
  

Other changes

• public_suffix() now honours the exception (!) rules of the public suffix list, which were previously stored with their ! prefix and could never match. public_suffix("city.kobe.jp") is now "kobe.jp" rather than "city.kobe.jp", and ada_get_domain() returns a domain instead of "" for hosts under those rules
• ada_get_domain() no longer strips a leading www. before looking up the suffix; the result is unchanged for ordinary hosts but www.ck and similar no longer come back as NA
• the C++ loops check for a user interrupt, so long vectors can be cancelled with Ctrl-C (#49)
• fixed url_decode2() dropping the remainder of a string after a % that is not followed by two hex digits (the escape is now passed through verbatim)
• fixed public_suffix() erroring on two or more bare hostnames matching a wildcard rule, e.g. public_suffix(c("a.b.ck", "c.d.ck"))
• public_suffix() now accepts full URLs with a path (#54), and returns the same suffix for a URL and its hostname
• ada_get_domain() now accepts a bare domain, so it is idempotent (#36); schemeless input with a path is still NA
• ada_get_basename() gained the decode argument the other getters have, and no longer appends // for schemes without an authority component
• all exported functions now error on non-character input instead of silently returning NA
