oddsapiR 1.0.0

First major release. Full coverage of The Odds API v4, an httr2 HTTP stack, and per-request usage-quota reporting.

New features

• Five new endpoint wrappers complete the v4 surface:
  • toa_sports_events() – in-play and upcoming events for a sport (/v4/sports/{sport}/events).
  • toa_event_markets() – available market keys per bookmaker for a single event (/v4/sports/{sport}/events/{eventId}/markets).
  • toa_sports_participants() – teams or players for a sport (/v4/sports/{sport}/participants).
  • toa_sports_events_history() – historical events snapshot (/v4/historical/sports/{sport}/events).
  • toa_event_odds_history() – historical single-event odds (/v4/historical/sports/{sport}/events/{eventId}/odds).
• toa_quota() – new exported accessor returning the usage credits (requests_remaining, requests_used, requests_last) from the most recent call. The same values are attached as attributes to every returned tibble and echoed when an oddsapiR_data object is printed.
• Every wrapper’s @return documentation is now a 3-column table (col_name | types | description) and carries a Usage quota cost note.

Breaking changes

• The HTTP stack migrated from httr to httr2. httr and janitor were removed from Imports; tibble was promoted to Imports.
• toa_sports_odds_history() now calls the current /v4/historical/sports/{sport}/odds endpoint (the legacy /v4/sports/{sport}/odds-history path is deprecated upstream). Its signature changed: date is now the required second argument and event_ids is an optional filter. The return gains leading timestamp, previous_timestamp and next_timestamp columns.

Bug fixes

• Wrappers now initialize their return variable before the tryCatch, so an API error (500/timeout/connection reset) returns an empty tibble and a cli message instead of throwing object '...' not found.
• toa_event_odds() parsing is more robust (builds an explicit tibble rather than as_tibble(data = ".")) and surfaces outcomes_description for player-prop markets.
• Returns are self-describing: toa_sports_participants() echoes sport_key, and the historical wrappers surface the snapshot timestamps.

Test infrastructure

• Tests added for all new functions; legacy tests hardened to gate on has_toa_key(), skip on empty/out-of-season responses, and assert columns subset-direction (expect_in(sort(cols), sort(colnames(x)))) so upstream column additions don’t break the suite.

Infrastructure & tooling

• GitHub Actions workflows modernized for the Node 24 runtime (actions/checkout@v5, r-lib/actions/*@v2, check-r-package, pak-based dependency installs).
• Added project meta files: CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, .github/copilot-instructions.md, issue templates, and a pull request template.
• README installation now leads with pak (with devtools as an alternative).
