mkearney / pkgverse Goto Github PK

Since I can't make a PR for that 😱

"📦🔭🌠 Create your own universe of packages a la tidyverse." should be "📦🔭🌠 Create your own universe of packages à la tidyverse."

😉 🇫🇷

If I have already created a package project in RStudio (https://github.com/IndrajeetPatil/ggverse) and I am inside the root directory for the package, how can I then create a verse-package? That is, it will replace the existing DESCRIPTION file and also add the needed .R files.
Should I set keep = FALSE?

Because if I do so, I get the following error-

pkgverse::pkgverse(
  pkg = "ggverse",       # RStudio project name for the package
  pkgs = ggverse::ggpackages_cran$Package, # vector of packages
  use = "package",       # add used packages using `usethis::use_package()`
  keep = FALSE,
  install_if = TRUE
)

Error in refuse_package(package, verboten = "tidyverse") : 
  argument "package" is missing, with no default

it would be helpful to add control over which pkg version/commit goes into the universe, default being updated CRAN version.

The usethis package is not imported when the package is loaded so function initially fails

The imports: and the scaffolding code stuck in every 'verse seems to be giving them dependencies on cli, crayon, dplyr, purrrr, rstudioapi and tibble - in many cases this would make for heavier dependencies than the things being included.

It would seem to be a bad idea to have infrastructure-building code depend on non-base functionality.

This error keeps popping up, even when running the example provided in the README file

It would be great if this could install packages from github in cases where the package doesn't live on cran.

One of the packages in my verse requires devtools::install_github('dir/pkg') and so it doesn't work for people who dont' have that package pre-installed.
