---------------------------------------

             Summary: [R][CI] Add nightly job that checks reverse dependencies
                 Key: ARROW-10357
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10357
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Continuous Integration, R
            Reporter: Neal Richardson
             Fix For: 3.0.0


Our 2.0.0 CRAN release is held up because there is now a package with a hard 
dependency on arrow, and they happened to use an API that we removed in this 
release (wrongly assuming that no one would want to call it). To prevent future 
surprises, we should add a nightly (or possibly less frequently, or possibly 
only triggered if there's changes to R) job that runs reverse dependency 
checks. 

{code}
Rscript -e 'install.packages("revdepcheck"); revdepcheck::revdep_check()'
if ! grep -q "no problems at all" revdep/failures.md; then
  cat revdep/failures.md
  exit 1
fi
{code}

should be sufficient to run the checks and fail the build if any fail.
