Hi there! I and a few others have been working on an R package we'd like to get on CRAN. The package itself checks R dependencies to see if they have a known CWE or CVE attached to them, and is intended to help R developers get a better understanding on the quality of the dependencies they use!
An example of it running is here: https://61-244738782-gh.circle-artifacts.com/0/~/oysteR/oysteR.Rcheck/00install.out And example of the output of R CMD check is here: https://61-244738782-gh.circle-artifacts.com/0/~/oysteR/oysteR.Rcheck/00check.log I have had some confusing experiences thus far with a README.md file, and excluded it in our .Rbuildignore, because I kept getting: * checking top-level files ... WARNING Conversion of ‘README.md’ failed: "template" (line 18, column 17): unexpected "(" expecting "." or "$" This error is very cryptic to me, and I couldn't figure it out after a bunch of wonderful googling :) The README.rmd file is here: https://github.com/sonatype-nexus-community/oysteR/blob/master/README.Rmd Output README.md generated with rmarkdown is here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sonatype-nexus-community/oysteR/master/README.md Ideally I think it would be nice to include it in our R package, but that WARNING keeps scaring me :) If anyone has any insight into the cause of that warning, would love to know. Any other feedback on the package would be great too! I'm not an R developer by trade (but love it), and this is my first go at this. Figured I'd reach out here to hopefully help save some back and forth between CRAN maintainers when I go to submit. CODE: https://github.com/sonatype-nexus-community/oysteR Also, we are actively looking for contributors that want to help out, so if this project interests you, come on over! Cheers, and thanks in advance for any help! -- [image: Sonatype] <http://sonatype.com> *Jeffry Hesse* Product Manager - Developer Experience [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
