dstr_package: dstr: Package dependency structure analysis

In falo0/dstr: Effectively reducing package dependencies in own R projects

Description

dstr's goal is to reveal the dependency structure of one or seceral given package/s. E.g. it helps to find out which packages are eventually required (all dependencies of dependencies of...), how they are connected, and how easy or hard it would be to remove certain packages from the dependency structure completely.

Details

The dstr package provides 4 functions:

- dstr() gives a console output which shows the user descriptive information about the dependency structure as well as opportunities to reduce dependencies.

- plotdstr() provides a dependency graph to the user.

- dstr_data() delivers different data outputs of package dependencies.

- edges2tree() transforms an edgelist into a data.frame that represents a tree structure. This is sometimes more useful in understanding the sequence in which the packages are loaded.
