Two UX fixes surfaced by first real-user use:
1. cog_spending / cog_revenue / cog_geographic_rollup now accept either
a character vector OR a data.frame with a canonical_govid column
(e.g. output of cog_gov_search() or cog_find_peers()). Shared
.coerce_govid_input() helper in session.R. This lets the natural
pipe work:
cog_gov_search('MIAMI', state='FL', type='city') |>
cog_spending(years=2022, category='Police')
cog_peer_compare already accepted a data.frame for the peer arg;
behavior there is unchanged.
2. .check_govids_in_scope() message reworded. The old text led with
'v0.1 covers gov_types 0-3' which falsely implied the missing govids
were scope-excluded types when the more common real cause is a typo
or a guessed value. New message leads with typo + pre-2017 PID,
mentions scope exclusion as one possibility, and points at
cog_gov_search() as the recovery path.
Tests: 165 pass / 0 fail. check 0E/0W/0N.
Three pieces:
1. cog_gov_search: name/state/type search over canonical_fips_xwalk
for resolving human-readable place names into canonical_govids.
Accepts USPS abbrev ('FL') or FIPS int (12) for state; integer
0-3 or name ('state','county','city','township') for type. Types
4/5 emit an explanatory cli message and return an empty tibble
(v0.1 corpus excludes them). USPS<->FIPS table hardcoded with
50 states + DC + territories; FIPS 66 = GU (not GA).
2. cog_mirror: downloads manifest-listed files to a local directory
with SHA-256 idempotency (files with matching hash return status
'cached'). Supports HTTP and local-path fixture URLs. Round-trip
test: mirror + re-open against the mirror + query Broward 2020
returns identical results.
3. Scope-aware verbs: .check_govids_in_scope() helper in session.R
queries canonical_fips_xwalk for the requested govids, emits a
cli_inform listing any missing ones, and records the found/missing
sets under provenance$scope. Wired into cog_spending (and
transitively into cog_revenue, cog_geographic_rollup,
cog_peer_compare via their cog_spending calls).
Also: dropped dbplyr from Imports (unused).
Tests: +29 (22 search + 12 mirror - 5 refactored) / 159 total pass.
devtools::check() now clean: 0E / 0W / 0N.
cog_find_peers selects peers from canonical_fips_xwalk by same-type,
same-state, and population-range (ratio or absolute) criteria,
ordered by |log(pop_ratio)| ascending.
cog_peer_compare accepts the find_peers result (or a plain character
vector of govids), pulls spending for target + peers via cog_spending,
and appends summary rows (summary_p25/p50/p75) so the whole result
can be faceted by `role` in a single ggplot call. Summary rows honor
per_capita + adjust_to_year by picking the right value column.
target_rank reports the target's rank among target+peers at max(years).
Provenance is rewritten with verb = cog_peer_compare and peer_count.
Also: globalVariables('.data') in zzz.R to silence R CMD check on
tidy-eval pronouns.
Tests: 21 new / 120 total pass. devtools::check() 0E/0W/2N.
Wraps cog_spending across a named list of state/county/city layers,
tagging each row with its `layer` and attaching a scope_note that
documents geographic-scope caveats (state totals are statewide, county
totals include areas outside a listed city, city proper excludes
special districts). Per-capita uses each layer's own population from
the canonical_fips_xwalk.
Provenance is inherited from cog_spending but rewritten to reflect
the outer verb (verb, call, layers).
Tests: 19 new / 99 total pass. devtools::check() 0E/0W/2N.
Three core query verbs over the spending_annotated / revenue_annotated
DuckDB views. Each verb accepts vector govid, vector years, optional
category filter, per_capita flag, and adjust_to_year for CPI-U
real-dollar conversion (bundled index).
Amounts are returned in full USD (SUM(amt) * 1000) so callers can
freely rescale to millions/billions. The $1,000s -> $USD conversion
is recorded in provenance$transformations$units_conversion.
Every result carries an attr(., "provenance") list matching
inst/schemas/provenance-v1.json. cog_explain() prints the structured
form via cli or returns the raw list for MCP/JSON consumers.
Also: .fetch_or_cache_manifest() now handles local fixture paths so
tests can point USCOGDATA_FIXTURE_URL at the pipeline publish_cache/
without a working HTTP server.
Tests: 80 pass / 0 fail. devtools::check() 0E/0W/2N (both notes
pre-existing / environmental).
Adds R/sysdata.rda with the annual-average CPIAUCSL index (1947-2026,
80 years, sourced from FRED) and an internal .inflate() helper that
converts nominal amounts between two years via the ratio of CPI values.
Bundling CPI in the package (rather than publishing a cpi_annual.parquet
in the corpus) matches the reader-specification intent: real-dollar
conversion is a verb-level option, not a corpus-level artifact, so the
target_year stays flexible at query time.
data-raw/cpi_annual.R carries the one-shot FRED refresh used to build
sysdata.rda. Re-run when the CPI series needs to roll forward.
Verified: CPI(2000)/CPI(2021) ≈ 0.635, matching the ~0.63 sanity
anchor in cog_explorer's existing inflation logic.
Tests: tests/testthat/test-adjust.R covers the known 2000→2021 ≈ 1.574x
anchor, vectorized from_year, error cases for out-of-range years, and
NA-amount preservation. 14 pass / 0 fail.
Seven DuckDB views register on session open: long (raw), spending_long
and revenue_long (prefix-filtered, NOT is_aggregate per reader-spec §4),
canonical_fips_xwalk and summary_categories (identity), spending_annotated
and revenue_annotated (LEFT JOIN xwalk + categories for verb composition).
File prefix `NN-` enforces creation order so *_annotated views resolve
their *_long dependencies.
Deviation from plan: series_breaks/cpi_annual/legacy_aggregate_map and
*_with_transforms views are deferred — their backing parquets are not
in the v0.1 corpus (manifest.files.metadata only lists canonical_fips_xwalk
and summary_categories). The verbs will compute CPI adjustment verb-side
against a bundled cpi table in a later task.
