R Development Tools: An opinionated collection of development tools, packages, and utilities.
Feel free to use and/or fork this project!
You can install the development version of rdev from GitHub with:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("jabenninghoff/rdev")Or using renv:
# install.packages("renv")
renv::install("jabenninghoff/rdev")- Changelog: See “Changelog” or
NEWS.md. - Planned: TODO
rdev supports creation of new R packages following rdev conventions as
well as new R
Analysis
packages. The typical setup workflow (per ?quickstart) is:
- Use
available::available()to check package name - With no project open, run
create_github_repo()to initialize the GitHub R repository - Without committing to git, run
init()in the newly created project - Manually update the Title and Description fields in the
DESCRIPTIONfile without committing - Run
setup_analysis()orsetup_rdev()to configure the package as an analysis package or rdev package respectively. - Update TODO.md, NEWS.md, README.Rmd, and DESCRIPTION as needed
- Re-run
check_renv(),ci()to validate package - Commit to git and begin development
rdev automates the workflow for creating GitHub releases along with updating GitHub pages for either standard R packages or R analysis packages, using the release notes format in NEWS.md. A typical development workflow is:
- Bump version and create new feature branch with
new_branch() - Write all the things
- Update the release notes for the new version in NEWS.md, following
the conventions described in
get_release() - Finalize the release and merge all changes to git
- Run
stage_release()to create a new pull request on GitHub using details derived from NEWS.md, including updating the README and GitHub pages - After the pull request has been reviewed and passes all required
status checks, accept the staged release with
merge_release(), which merges the pull request, cleans up branches, and publishes a new GitHub release
Feature branches can be merged without starting a new release;
stage_release() just requires that everything is committed, including
new release notes in NEWS.md before running. When ready to release,
stage_release() will use the existing branch if on a feature branch,
and create a new release branch if on the default.
For my workflow, I typically check renv when I start:
library(rdev)
check_renv()
#> renv::status(dev = TRUE)
#> No issues found -- the project is in a consistent state.
#>
#> renv::clean()
#> - No stale package locks were found.
#> - No temporary directories were found in the project library.
#> - The project has been cleaned.I also have a ci() function to run all my continuous integration tests
locally:
ci()
#> renv::status(dev = TRUE)
#> No issues found -- the project is in a consistent state.

#> missing_deps()
