add_dependencies_badge: Add a Dependencies badge

In rcompendium: Create a Package or Research Compendium Structure

Add a Dependencies badge

Description

This function adds or updates the Dependencies badge to the README.Rmd. The first number corresponds to the direct dependencies and the second to the recursive dependencies.

Note: this function can work with packages not published on the CRAN and is based on the function gtools::getDependencies(). See also the function get_all_dependencies().

Make sure that 1) a README.Rmd file exists at the project root and 2) it contains a block starting with the line ⁠<!-- badges: start -->⁠ and ending with the line ⁠<!-- badges: end -->⁠.

Don't forget to re-render the README.md.
