pingr (development version)

pingr 2.0.5

  • pingr now compiles with musl, e.g. on Alpine Linux, again.

pingr 2.0.4

  • ping() now handles sub-millisecond response times (#24).

  • ping() now works on FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD and DragonFlyBSD.

pingr 2.0.3

  • ping_port() now correctly prints the port if version = TRUE.

pingr 2.0.2

  • pingr::ping() now works better in a non-English locale (#18).

pingr 2.0.1

  • is_online() now tries the Apple captive test first, because it works better when DNS is not masked, but HTTP is (#13).

  • ping() now works on Linux systems with a non-English locale @pekkarr (#18).

pingr 2.0.0

  • New nsl() function to perform DNS queries.

  • New my_ip() function to query the computer's public IP address.

  • New apple_captive_test() function to check Apple's captive test web page to see if the computer is online.

  • Better is_online() implementation, it uses DNS and HTTPS instead of an ICMP ping via an external ping program.

  • Now ip_up() checks first if the computer is connected to the internet, via is_online().

pingr 1.2.0

  • New is_up() function to check if a web (other other TCP) server is up.

  • Timeout now works correctly on Linux systems (#7).

  • ping() uses processx now to run the external ping program, so the the ping error messages do not litter the R console (#8, #9).

pingr 1.1.2

No user visible changes.

pingr 1.1.0

  • New is_online() function to check if the computer is online, by pinging two DNS servers.

  • TCP Timeout now works for the connect phase as well.

pingr 1.0.0

First release on CRAN.
