hubExamples

ANALYTICS
Velocity0.0

Example data for the hubverse, moving whenever the standards it demonstrates move.

hubverseforecastingexample-datar-packagestandards
Current state
hubExamples ships the reference datasets that hubverse vignettes and downstream packages use to demonstrate forecast and target data. Its releases track the hubverse specification rather than any independent roadmap: 1.0.0 exists because the target time series standard changed, and 0.1.0 because the oracle output terminology did. The current release, 1.0.1, is a single fix for column deserialisation on systems without arrow.
Where it's heading
This is a downstream member of the hubverse package family, alongside hubUtils, hubData and hubValidations, and it moves when they define something new. The pattern across all four entries is the same: a standard changes upstream, hubExamples updates its data objects and vignettes to match. Sibling package hubAdmin has not shipped since November 2025, so the cohort is not currently in a coordinated wave.
Prediction
The next release will most likely follow the next hubverse data-standard revision rather than lead it.

Recent moves

  1. 3mo ago

    hubExamples 1.0.1

    A single fix for forecast_outputs deserialising as length-zero columns where arrow is absent. Housekeeping on top of the 1.0.0 standards alignment.

    hubExamples 1.0.0

    Updates the forecast_target_ts data object to the new hubverse target time series standard and raises the R floor to 3.5. A representative instance of the adopt-the-upstream-standard pattern that drives this package's releases.

    hubExamples 0.1.0

    Replaces the target observations dataset with forecast_oracle_output and moves the vignettes onto oracle output terminology. A vocabulary change originating upstream, mirrored here in the reference data.

    hubExamples 0.0.1

    The first official release, establishing hubExamples as the shared example-data package for the hubverse. Everything since has been keeping that data in step with the specification.
