bbk (development version)

  • bdf_dimension() returns the dimension structure for a given Banque de France dataset.

  • snb_toc() returns the publication topic tree from the SNB data portal.

bbk 0.10.0

CRAN release: 2026-05-16

  • bbk_data(), bis_data(), and bdp_data() gained an updated_after argument for incremental retrieval of revised observations, matching the existing parameter on ecb_data(). All four now accept a Date, POSIXct, or ISO 8601 string.
  • bis_data() now requests the SDMX generic data format explicitly, fixing a silent regression where the BIS endpoint started returning structure-specific data and the parser produced zero rows.
  • Support for Banco de Portugal (BdP) data.
  • Support for Bank of Japan (BoJ) data.
  • Support for National Bank of Poland (NBP) exchange rates and gold prices.

bbk 0.9.0

CRAN release: 2026-03-21

  • Add optional caching of API responses via options(bbk.cache = TRUE). Cached responses are stored for 1 day by default and can be customized with options(bbk.cache_max_age = seconds). Use bbk_cache_dir() to find the cache location and bbk_cache_clear() to clear it.
  • Support for Bank for International Settlements (BIS) data.
  • Support for Norges Bank (NoB) data.
  • boc_data() now returns a value column instead of rate for consistency with other data functions.
  • bde_latest() returns the most recently published value for one or more BdE series.
  • bbk_dimension() returns the dimension structure for a given Bundesbank dataflow.
  • bis_dimension() returns the dimension structure for a given BIS dataflow.
  • ecb_data() gains an updated_after parameter to retrieve only observations updated after a given timestamp.
