In roxyglobals: 'Roxygen2' Global Variable Declarations

roxyglobals

Generate utils::globalVariables() from roxygen @autoglobal and @global tags.

Installation

# Install the released version from CRAN
install.packages("roxyglobals")

# Install the released version from r-universe
install.packages("roxyglobals", repos = "https://anthonynorth.r-universe.dev")

# Or the development version from GitHub:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("anthonynorth/roxyglobals")

Setup

Add roxyglobals to an R package DESCRIPTION via:

# Add to current R package
roxyglobals::use_roxyglobals()

# Or add to another R package
# install.packages("withr")
withr::with_dir("path/to/package", roxyglobals::use_roxyglobals())

Config

By default, roxyglobals writes all discovered globals (including duplicates) to R/globals.R. You may configure the filename and global generation behaviour with:

# write globals to R/generated-globals.R
roxyglobals::options_set_filename("generated-globals.R")

# only emit unique globals
roxyglobals::options_set_unique(TRUE)

Usage

Add @autoglobal to a function roxygen comment block, example:

#' Summarise responses
#'
#' @name summarise_responses
#' @param responses a data.frame of responses
#'
#' @autoglobal
#' @export
summarise_responses <- function(responses) {
  # station_name, station_type, end_time, start_time need to be added to 
  # utils::globalVariables() to keep R CMD CHECK happy
  responses |>
    dplyr::group_by(station_name, station_type) |>
    dplyr::summarise(
      count_responses = dplyr::n(),
      total_hours = sum(
        as.numeric(end_time - start_time, units = "hours"),
        na.rm = TRUE
      ),
      .groups = "drop"
    )
}

Or @global, example:

#' Summarise responses
#'
#' @name summarise_responses
#' @param responses a data.frame of responses
#'
#' @global station_name station_type end_time start_time
#' @export
summarise_responses <- function(responses) {
  # station_name, station_type, end_time, start_time need to be added to 
  # utils::globalVariables() to keep R CMD CHECK happy
  responses |>
    dplyr::group_by(station_name, station_type) |>
    dplyr::summarise(
      count_responses = dplyr::n(),
      total_hours = sum(
        as.numeric(end_time - start_time, units = "hours"),
        na.rm = TRUE
      ),
      .groups = "drop"
    )
}

Run devtools::document() to generate utils::globalVariables() in your globals file (default R/globals.R). Example globals file:

# Generated by roxyglobals: do not edit by hand

utils::globalVariables(c(
  "end_time", # <summarise_responses>
  "start_time", # <summarise_responses>
  "station_name", # <summarise_responses>
  "station_type", # <summarise_responses>
  NULL
))
