this is a patch to fix a CRAN policy violation, namely that the cache was written in the wrong directory due to using rappdirs.
If you have used comtradr prior to version 1.0.1 I recommend
running ct_migrate_cache() to copy files to the new cache
and remove the old cache
BULK DOWNLOAD ADDED: the function
ct_get_bulk has been added. It enables the use of the bulk
download facility from Comtrade.
Please see the vignette https://docs.ropensci.org/comtradr/articles/bulk_files.html for details
Caching Functionality: Implemented enhanced caching features, and added a dedicated vignette explaining caching concepts. Environment variables allow for configuration of some caching features.
Functionality Updates: Major updates to key
functions such as ct_get_data and
ct_get_ref_table, including parameter adjustments and
usability improvements, mostly checks for all important parameters
before the request is send out.

Passing an API token string to ct_register_token()

In func ct_search(), passing a character vector of

Update the country package data, to stay up to date with the
reporter/partner country table that Comtrade is using. This is an update
to the file inst/extdata/country_table.rda. (#29).
In func ct_search(), improve error messaging when an
input country is invalid. (#31).
In func ct_search(), fix bug in which running
queries using the SITCrev2 commodity type was returning raw
HTML (as opposed to json data). (#27).
In func ct_country_lookup(), remove NA
inputs from multi-country lookups (previously NA was being
stringified and included in the pipe-separated regex lookup).
