In waldronlab/newsfeed: Compilies NEWS files from different packages

knitr::opts_knit$set(
  root.dir = file.path(Sys.getenv("HOME"), "github")
)
knitr::opts_chunk$set(
  collapse = TRUE,
  comment = "#>",
  cache = TRUE,
  out.width = "100%"
)
options(tibble.print_min = 5, tibble.print_max = 5)

Compile NEWS files from several packages

Install and load

if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
    install.packages("BiocManager")

if (!requireNamespace("newsfeed", quietly = TRUE))
    BiocManager::install("waldronlab/newsfeed")

library(newsfeed)

Optional packages

• clipr - allows the user to send the collection of NEWS files to the clipboard
• rmarkdown - when render = TRUE in collect, the package will show an HTML page of NEWS updates

Moving to the base packages directory

Users should move one level up from the package directory to be able to find the NEWS files in the package:

setwd("..")

In this case, when compiling the Rmd file, I move one level up.

Compiling NEWS files

collect("newsfeed", render = FALSE)

Reading the NEWS

Here is how the NEWS collection would look if all NEWS files were written in NEWS.md format:

cat(readLines(
    collect("newsfeed", render = TRUE, raw = TRUE)
))
