Changelog • develcoder

develcoder 0.9.0

check_test_files(): renamed to check_tests, with major overhaul to work with diagnose_test_infra() and diagnose_test_files() and include various additional checks.
check_test_infra() and get_test_files(): renamed to diagnose_test_infra() and diagnose_test_files(), with major overhauls to use them more easily in check_test_files(). For get_test_files(), warn about ignored files and respect argument ignore_case.

Vignette pkg_devel: URLs should use protocol https:// instead of http://, not the other way around. Point out to install the package before knitting the README. Expand info on checking reverse dependencies. Some change in overall structure.

Dependency desc: move from Suggests to Imports because it is used by check_test_infra().
Dependency fs: require minimum version 1.2.4 because function dir_ls() with argument fail is used in a vignette.
Suggested dependency goodpractice: require minimum version 1.1.0 which changed default argument checks in goodpractice::goodpractice().
Dependency progutils: increase minimum version from 0.9.0 to 0.13.0 to prevent spurious warnings from wrap_text().
Dependency remotes: require minimum version 2.2.0 because function install_version() with the specification of minimum version is used in a vignette.
Add suggested dependency withr to create temporary projects when testing.

check_test_infra() to check if the infrastructure for testing is present and refers to the current package.

Vignette pkg_setup: expand section on licenses. Move documentation on GitHub Actions to vignette pkg_devel.
Vignette pkg_devel: discuss choosing dependencies. Add section with documentation and help for GitHub Actions. Explain how to show the DESCRIPTION file when discussing how to normalise it. Various clarifications.
Vignette rmarkdown_knitr: fuller discussion of R markdown file and package.

Dependencies checkinput, fs, and progutils: move from Suggests to Imports because they are used by missing_test_files(), increasing minimum version for progutils from >= 0.5.0 to >= 0.9.0 to use a safe version of create_tempdir().
Add dependency testthat to Suggests because it is mentioned in a vignette.
Remove dependency pkgcheck because their checks are already covered by goodpractice.

check_test_files() to check if all function files have a corresponding test file and vice versa.
get_test_files(): helper function for check_test_files().

Vignette pkg_setup: explain how to use testthat instead of tinytest. Add a clearer introduction to pkgdown.
Vignette pkg_devel: various additions: explain how to not run or not display code in examples. Elaborate explanation how to find when a feature was introduced. Elaborate section Automated checks. No longer suggest using pkgcheck which requires system libraries.
Vignette rmarkdown_knitr: expand section with examples of formatting, showing both the code and the output.

Add dependency desc to Suggests because it is used in a vignette.
Dependency checkrpkgs: require minimum version 1.0.0 to depend on a stable version.

Dependency checkinput: require minimum version 1.0.0 to depend on a stable version.

Dependency progutils: increase minimum version from 0.2.0 to 0.5.0 to prevent progutils::create_dir() from unsafely returning the working directory if creating the directory fails.
Dependencies checkinput and checkrpkgs: remove unnecessary requirements for a minimum version.

Add dependencies revdepcheck and xfun to Imports because they are used in a vignette to check reverse dependencies.

Vignette Package setup: remove section ‘Importing packages or functions’ because it duplicates section ‘Update dependencies’ from the vignette Package development.
Vignette Package development: add section ‘Check reverse dependencies’.
Remove the NEWS template: looking at real NEWS files is much more useful.

Dependencies: increase minimum version of checkinput from 0.7.0 to 0.8.0, of progutils from 0.0.9 to 0.2.0, and of checkrpkgs to >= 0.9.0 to update argument name allow_zero to allow_zero_length.
