Error: 'req_paginate' is not an exported object from 'namespace:httr2' (and more...)

[DavidRLovell]

After installing the latest version of R and the httr2 package, I'm not able to access req_paginate() and related functions as described in the current online httr2 documentation:

> library(httr2)
> req_paginate()
Error in req_paginate() : could not find function "req_paginate"

PS. This is the first time I've ever posted an issue to github: please forgive me if this is inept and advise me how to do better.

PPS. httr2 is amaaaaazing! It stands to deliver very positive benefits to me and my colleagues who need to access the Canvas Learning Management System API. I'm writing lots of notes for myself at the moment ... if these could be made useful to others somehow, please let me know. I would like to give back to the httr2 effort if I can.

req_paginate() was only added very recently and is only available in the dev version of httr2. Be aware that the interface of req_paginate() is currently still evolving and likely to be different to what it is right now.
But a new version of httr2 should soon be released and the interface should be a bit more stable then.

@hadley Should we have a pkgdown for the released and the dev version of httr2?

They're only available in the dev version at the moment. We're aiming to get it to CRAN in the next few weeks.

I've fixed the website so it now only shows the released functions; you'll now need to go to http://httr2.r-lib.org/dev/ to see the dev docs.

I’m so glad I got to see what was in development! I’ve given `req_paginate()` a thorough workout. Thanks for this excellent package @hadley, @mgirlich and team!
