MODIStsp 2.1.0

Test environments

MODIStsp 2.0.10

Test environments

check_win_oldrelease(), check_win_release() and check_win_devel() return the following NOTE:

* checking CRAN incoming feasibility ... [50s] NOTE
Maintainer: 'Luigi Ranghetti <rpackages.ranghetti@gmail.com>'

New maintainer:
  Luigi Ranghetti <rpackages.ranghetti@gmail.com>
Old maintainer(s):
  Luigi Ranghetti <luigi@ranghetti.info>

The email was changed in order to use an account which does not forward to Google, so to respect CRAN requirements.

Moreover, old checks contained the following note:

   Package CITATION file contains call(s) to old-style citEntry().  Please
   use bibentry() instead.

This was fixed in commit 1180ceeaf2a853bfe95cfb0be65804a279ef5d3f.

MODIStsp 2.0.9

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs nor WARNINGs.

check_win_oldrelease() returns the following NOTE:

Possibly mis-spelled words in DESCRIPTION:
  Busetto (40:5)
  HDF (29:24)
  MODIS (2:35, 25:10, 29:18, 30:60, 38:18)
  Ranghetti (40:17)
  mosaicking (26:43)
  rasters (24:63)
  reflectance (31:50, 32:65)
  reprojecting (26:55)
  resizing (26:72)

All these words are correctly spelled, and they do not contain package names nor book titles, so they should not be quoted.

MODIStsp 2.0.8

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs, WARNINGs nor NOTEs.

This submission fixes the following CRAN NOTEs:

Version: 2.0.7
Check: installed package size
Result: NOTE
     installed size is 5.1Mb
     sub-directories of 1Mb or more:
     ExtData 1.9Mb
     app 1.3Mb
     testdata 1.0Mb
Flavors: r-devel-linux-x86_64-fedora-clang, r-devel-macos-arm64, r-devel-macos-x86_64, r-release-macos-arm64, r-release-macos-x86_64, r-oldrel-macos-x86_64

Package size was reduced using zip archives and resizing the logo.

Moreover, the following error appeared as additional donttest issue:

Error in gdal_utils("buildvrt", gdalfile, output.vrt, opts) : 
  gdal_utils buildvrt: an error occured
Calls: MODIStsp ... MODIStsp_process_bands -> <Anonymous> -> gdal_utils
Execution halted

This occurs when the local GDAL environment does not support HDF4 format, which is required by the package. This requirement was now explicitly assessed both in the package description than in the vignette documentation. If the user tries to run functions while HDF4 is not supported, the code exits gracefully informing that "Your current GDAL environment does not support HDF4 file format. Please recompile GDAL including HDF4 drivers.".

MODIStsp 2.0.7

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs, WARNINGs nor NOTEs.

MODIStsp 2.0.6

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs, WARNINGs nor NOTEs.

MODIStsp 2.0.5

This submission should fix errors on Debian builds, due to improper trigger of an helper function leading to writing in the user's lib folder.

Also fixes a couple of bugs.

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs nor WARNINGs.

New submission

Package was archived on CRAN

Unfortunately Lorenzo Busetto, who maintained the package, suddently passed away (https://docs.ropensci.org/MODIStsp/articles/lorenzo). After that, package was automatically archived for policy violation, since communications sent to him were not read. I now started maintaining MODIStsp (I already authored parts of code).

CRAN repository db overrides:
  X-CRAN-Comment: Archived on 2020-10-31 for policy violation.

  Attempts writing to the user library.

In this submission I fixed a possible tentative of writing in the user library (commit ebdfa2a6ebbadf1ab42bc4679b48d2224ddf333f).

Possibly mis-spelled words in DESCRIPTION:
  Busetto (40:5)
  HDF (29:24)
  MODIS (2:35, 25:10, 29:18, 30:60, 38:18)
  Ranghetti (40:17)
  mosaicking (26:43)
  rasters (24:63)
  reflectance (31:50, 32:65)
  reprojecting (26:55)
  resizing (26:72)

All these words are correctly spelled.

CRAN resubmission review

Please find below the answers to the CRAN reviewer.

Please reduce the length of the title to less than 65 characters.

The title was changed from "A Tool for Automating Download and Preprocessing of MODIS Land Products Data" to "Find, Download and Process MODIS Land Products".

Please only capitalize sentence beginnings and names in the description text. e.g. Quality Indicators --> quality indicators Spectral Indexes --> spectral indexes Surface Reflectance --> surface reflectance

All capitalized letters were changed (unless sentence beginnings).

Please change: products , --> products,

Done.

Please provide a link to the used webservices to the description field of your DESCRIPTION file in the form or with angle brackets for auto-linking and no space after 'http:' and 'https:'.

No webservices were used (the MODIStsp Shiny GUI is launched from local PC). I added a reference to the paper which describes MODIStsp: Busetto and Ranghetti (2016)

You have examples for unexported functions. Please either omit these examples or export these functions. Used ::: in documentation: man/split_nodata_values.Rd: MODIStsp:::split_nodata_values(c("255", "250,254:255")) man/split_nodata_values.Rd: MODIStsp:::split_nodata_values(c("255", "250,254:255"), take_all = FALSE) man/split_nodata_values.Rd: MODIStsp:::create_nodata_rcl(c("255", "250,254:255"), c("255", "255"))

Examples of unexported functions were removed.

Some code lines in examples are commented out in MODIStsp.Rd.

Please never do that. Ideally find toy examples that can be regularly executed and checked. Lengthy examples (> 5 sec), can be wrapped in \donttest.

Examples were changed following these indications. All lenghy examples were wrapped in \donttest{}. \dontrun{} is no more used.

Please ensure that you do not use more than 2 cores in your examples, vignettes, etc.

Argument parallel was added to functions MODIStsp(), MODIStsp_process()andMODIStsp_process_bands()(the only functions exploiting multicore computation): ifparallel = FALSE, single core is used. All examples and vignettes were edited settingparallel = FALSE` everywhere.

Please always add all authors, contributors and copyright holders in the Authors@R field with the appropriate roles. e.g.: Babak Naimi

Babak Naimi's contribution was added to the DESCRIPTION.

MODIStsp 2.0.4

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs, WARNINGs

There is one note related to nuw submission (package was archived before I had time to fix it)

This submission should fix errors due to trying accessing temporarily non available urls when building vignettes, which led to CRAN archival. Sorry for that.

Also limits number of retries on HTTR GET to 5 (previously 20) as suggested by DR Riply in his mail

MODIStsp 2.0.3

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs, WARNINGs and NOTES

Test environments

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs, WARNINGs

There is a NOTE related to suggesting a orphaned package (gWidgets) I received a mail from Prof. Ripley about that recently. As suggested, I temporarily moved gWidgets to suggests and use it conditionally for the time being, with the intention of removing the dependency in the next MODIstsp release by switching to a Shiny-based GUI.

Maintenance release to solve CRAN build errors on debian, due to the test_resetindexes test (I'm sorry I missed this in the previous resubmission). The test is now skipped on CRAN.
