makeR

Makefile and tools for R packages

This is a git submodule we include in our R packages to have a Makefile and some tools for package building, testing and documentation generation. Including this as a submodule in other projects enables us to hold the code for this in one central place (i.e., here) without copy-paste horror.

The submodule is always included under the path 'makeR' in the respective package repositories, e.g., look here: https://github.com/berndbischl/BBmisc

Upgrading

The installation method has switched from submodules to subtrees. To upgrade an existing submodule-based installation, please run make uninistall first; you may also want to remove the .gitmodules file if you do not use other submodules. After switching, you can run make upgrade as usual for further upgrades.

Installing the subtree

Execute the following in a terminal:

curl http://krlmlr.github.io/makeR/install2 | sh

Take a look at the installer script if you're curious.

Updating makeR

If you want to update the makeR tool chain, run:

make upgrade
