Changelog • blockr.session

blockr.session 0.1.1

The workflow listing and the draft notice show their tooltips as blockr’s light card rather than the browser’s native box. The card comes from blockr.ui, which the package now imports. The listing’s icon-only buttons and links gain an accessible name, and the links that open a workflow in a new tab gain a tooltip as well. The navbar’s workflow name no longer has one.
Downloading a single workflow or a single version from a row of the workflow listing works again: both buttons drive a hidden download link that Shiny had left unregistered while hidden, so clicking did nothing at all.
Setting the session_autosave blockr option to an interval in seconds turns on crash recovery: a board with unsaved changes is parked on the configured backend as a draft, and a later session offers to restore it. A draft is an ordinary record at a reserved id, so it never touches a workflow’s version history and stays out of the workflow listing. Retention is governed by session_draft_ttl.
The rack_create() function gains a draft argument minting those reserved ids, and the new rack_records() lists records of one kind at a time. Draft writes are unversioned, via a new versioned argument on rack_upload().

CRAN release: 2026-08-04

Initial CRAN release.
manage_project() provides a blockr.core preserve_board plugin that saves, restores and manages boards from within a running app, with a navbar dropdown exposing a workflow listing, version history and an editable board title.
Board storage is backed by the pins package. user_pins_board() is the default backend, resolved from the session_mgmt_backend blockr option: on Posit Connect with the Connect API Integration enabled, each visitor reads and writes pins under their own account, falling back to the application’s Connect credentials and then to a local board off Connect.
On Posit Connect, boards can be shared with named users and given a visibility level from the dropdown’s Sharing tab.
