dt2_check_updates R Documentation
Check for DataTables library updates
Description
Queries the npm registry to compare installed library versions against
the latest available versions. Version constraints are enforced to prevent
incompatible major version upgrades (e.g. jQuery 3.x will not jump to 4.x).
Usage
dt2_check_updates(quiet = FALSE)
Arguments
quiet
Logical. If TRUE, returns the result invisibly without
printing. Default FALSE.
Value
A data.frame (invisibly) with columns:
library, installed, latest, latest_ok,
constraint, status.
Status values:
"ok"Library is up to date.
"UPDATE"A compatible update is available.
"PINNED"A new major version exists, but is blocked by
the version constraint. The library is up to date within its
allowed range.
"error"Lookup failed (check your internet connection).
Examples
dt2_check_updates()
# programmatic use
updates <- dt2_check_updates(quiet = TRUE)
updates[updates$status == "UPDATE", ]
