labelled 2.7.0

• a .values argument has been added to set_na_values() and set_na_range(), allowing to pass a list of values
• a .strict option has been added to set_variable_labels(), set_value_labels(), add_value_labels(), remove_value_labels(), set_na_values() and set_na_range(), allowing to pass values for columns not observed in the data (it could be useful for using a same list of labels for several data.frame sharing some variables) (#70)
• copy_labels() is less restrictive for non labelled vectors, copying variable label even if the two vectors are not of the same type (#71)
• a .strict option has been added to copy_labels() (#71)

labelled 2.6.0

• look_for() has been redesigned:
  • look_for() now returns a tibble
  • columns with multiple values for each variable are now stored as named lists
  • a print method has been added for a clearer presentation of results in the console
  • use lookfor_to_long_format() to convert results with one row per factor level and per value label
  • use convert_list_columns_to_character() to convert list columns to simpler character vectors
  • generate_dictionary() is an equivalent of look_for()
• set_variable_labels, set_value_labels, add_value_labels, and remove_value_labels now accept “tidy dots” (#67 @psanker)
• new function names_prefixed_by_values() to get the names of a vector prefixed by their corresponding value

labelled 2.5.0

• new .keep_value_labels argument for recode.haven_labelled()
• new .combine_value_labels argument for recode.haven_labelled() (#61)
• new drop_unused_value_labels() method
• an additional .labels argument for set_value_labels()
• user_na_to_na argument has been added to to_character.haven_labelled()
• %>% is now imported from dplyr

• update_labelled() has been improved to allow to reconstruct all labelled vectors created with a previous versiob of haven

labelled 2.3.1

• an additional argument keep_var_label for remove_labels()
• bug fix for unlabelled() when applied on a vector
• when using unclass = TRUE with to_factor(), attributes are not removed anymore

• new function unlabelled()

labelled 2.2.2

• bug fix for look_for() (#52 by @NoahMarconi)
• bug fix in val_labels_to_na() documentation

labelled 2.2.1

• bug fix for na_range() and na_values(): variable labels are now preserved (#48, thanks to @mspittler)

labelled 2.2.0

• new function copy_labels_from(), compliant with dplyr syntax
• update_labelled() is now more strict (#42 by @iago-pssjd)

• New unclass option in to_factor(), to be used when strict = TRUE (#36)
• Following haven version 2.1.0, it is not mandatory anymore to define a value label before defining a SPSS style missing value. labelled_spss(), na_values() and na_range() have been updated accordingly (#37)

labelled 2.0.2

• to_factor() bug fix then applied on a data.frame (#33)

labelled 2.0.1

• update_labelled() bug fix then applied on a data.frame (#31)

labelled 2.0.0

BREAKING CHANGE

• Following version 2.0.0 of haven, labelled() and labelled_spss() now produce objects with class “haven_labelled” and “haven_labelled_spss”, due to conflict between the previous “labelled” class and the “labelled” class used by Hmisc.
• A new function update_labelled() could be used to convert data imported with an older version of haven to the new classes.

Other changes
