Hi All,
This is the first time I am trying to upload a package. It is fun learning this
stuff.
Thank you all for kindly looking at the NOTES.
This is the log I recevied from CRAN volunteers:
https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/olr_1.0.0.2000_20191129_024844/Windows/00check.log
(I was wondering how to reproduce that log. I have run other things like
devtools::check())
The package is here: https://github.com/MatHatter/olr_r/tree/master/Rstuff
I will address every problem below:
1. OK. Not misspelled:
Possibly mis-spelled words in DESCRIPTION:
olr (8:18, 9:20)
2. FIXED thisThe Description field should not start with the package name,
'This package' or similar.
3. FIXED thisThe Description field contains
https://pypi.org/project/olr/.
Please enclose URLs in angle brackets (<...>).
4. Don't know how to fix this, unless it is not anything.
The build time stamp is missing.
That's a sign that you didn't build the package using "R CMD build" at
the command line (or one of the R functions that calls it). Don't use
tar directly to create it, let R do it (because adding a timestamp is
not the only thing it does).
If you used a devtools function to build the tarball, then you probably
did something wrong, but it's hard to say what without seeing the
command you used. Or maybe devtools has a bug, but it's pretty widely
used, so I doubt that.
5. First I took these files out of the folder completely, but then I thought
that it might be needed for something and .Rhistory probably will be there no
matter what so I used the function
usethis::use_build_ignore(c(".Rproj.user", ".gitignore", ".Rhistory"))✔ Setting
active project to 'C:/Rstuff/olr'✔ Adding '^\\.gitignore$', '^\\.Rhistory$' to '.Rbuildignore'
but as you see .Rproj.user was already in my .Rbuildignore so I don't know if
this is going to work.* checking for hidden files and directories ... NOTE
Found the following hidden files and directories:
.Rhistory
.gitignore
.Rproj.user
These were most likely included in error. See section 'Package
structure' in the 'Writing R Extensions' manual.
If you had .Rbuildignore set to ignore them, then R would not put them
in the tarball.

6. Lastly, I do not know how to fix this. I used the use_gpl3_license() I
believe.
* checking top-level files ... NOTE
Non-standard files/directories found at top level:
'LICENSE.md' 'olr.Rproj'
FYI,This is what my .Rbuildignore file looks
like^olr\.Rproj$^\.Rproj\.user$^LICENSE\.md$^\.gitignore$^\.Rhistory$
Thank you all so much.
From,
Mathew Fok
