checkhelper

A package to help you deal with devtools::check() outputs and helps avoids problems with CRAN submissions

Complete documentation in the {pkgdown} site: https://thinkr-open.github.io/checkhelper/

Installation

Install from CRAN

install.packages("checkhelper")

You can install the last version of checkhelper from r-universe with:

install.packages('checkhelper', repos = 'https://thinkr-open.r-universe.dev')

Or from GitHub:

remotes::install_github("thinkr-open/checkhelper")

Examples

Directly in your package in development

checkhelper::find_missing_tags()

checkhelper::print_globals(quiet = TRUE)

Reproducible example with a fake package in tempdir

library(checkhelper)

Experimental: Check that the user space is clean after checks

Have you faced a note on CRAN about non-standard things in the check directory ?

Check: for non-standard things in the check directory
Result: NOTE
    Found the following files/directories:
     ‘extrapackage’ 

Maybe you do not understand where these files came from.
Then, you can run check_clean_userspace() in your package directory to detect every files that you created during the check.
They could be issued from examples, tests or vignettes: check_clean_userspace() will tell you.

Experimental: Check as CRAN with CRAN global variables

Use the exploration of CRAN scripts by the RConsortium to check a package as CRAN does it with their env. variables. See https://github.com/RConsortium/r-repositories-wg/issues/17 for more details.
