biocBuildReport: Tidy Bioconductor build report results

In BiocPkgTools: Collection of simple tools for learning about Bioc Packages

Description

The online Bioconoductor build reports are great for humans to look at, but they are not easily computable. This function scrapes HTML and text files available from the build report online pages to generate a tidy data frame version of the build report.

Usage

biocBuildReport(version = BiocManager::version())

Arguments

version

character(1) the version number as used to access the online build report. For example, "3.6". The default is the "current version" as specified in BiocManager::version. Note that this is a character() variable, not a number.

Value

A tbl_df object with columns pkg, version, author, commit, date, node, stage, and result.

Examples

# Set the stage--what version of Bioc am I using?
BiocManager::version()

latest_build <- biocBuildReport()
head(latest_build)
