Re: [R-pkg-devel] How to write example results to a tempdir()?
Don't change the working directory! That has all kinds of unpleasant side effects for the unsuspecting user, possibly even more so than writing to a file. Instead, write the file to the temp directory, and read it from there, with e.g. wd <- tempdir() write(dat, file.path(wd, 'Ttest_1981-2000.dat')) Using file.path() means that the appropriate path delimiter for that OS will be used.

Re: [R-pkg-devel] R package submission: does not pass the incoming checks automatically,
It's normal and expected, and nothing to worry about. It's a NOTE to ensure that the package comes from the designated maintainer.

Re: [R-pkg-devel] Unable to post messages to this group
Clearly you can post messages to this group, since this message was received. R-package-devel requires that the first time someone posts, their message is approved by a human. After that first post, they may post normally. It's not a problem, or anything you've done - this policy applies to everyone, and cuts down enormously on spam since the moderators only approve relevant posts. Since your post appeared here, you've been cleared. The policy is on the about page where you signed up: https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel You have to be a subscriber to the list in order to post any message. Even then, your first messages are only posted after one manual moderator approvement. The moderation team are all volunteers, and sometimes they are busy or away from the computer, especially on weekends.

Re: [R-pkg-devel] how to add .Rd in man folder for inst/ext file?
Hi, Well, at the most basic, you create an appropriately-named and formatted text file in the man directory. The Writing R Extensions manual is full of information: https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html Roxygen is an alternative approach to creating the Rd files yourself. https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/roxygen2/vignettes/roxygen2.html The package.skeleton() function is a helper for the do it yourself approach.

Re: [R-pkg-devel] (no subject)
Hi, The Writing R Packages manual is the main documentation, specifically: https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html#The-DESCRIPTION-file As for indentation, don't. Just use a newline. I don't know of any templates, but the source code for many/most packages is on RForge and/or github, so you can look at as many DESCRIPTION files as you'd like to find the solutions you need. If that doesn't help, then please share actual examples of what isn't working in your file.

Re: [R-pkg-devel] What to do when a package is archived from CRAN
Hi, You can generally see what the reason is from the archive page, where it says: A summary of the most recent check results can be obtained from the check results archive. On that page, https://cran-archive.r-project.org/web/checks/2023/2023-08-19_check_results_prqlr.html is the note: Version: 0.5.0 Check: installed package size Result: NOTE installed size is 18.5Mb sub-directories of 1Mb or more: libs 18.2Mb This is too big for CRAN, see https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html quoted here: Packages should be of the minimum necessary size. Reasonable compression should be used for data (not just .rda files) and PDF documentation: CRAN will if necessary pass the latter through qpdf. As a general rule, neither data nor documentation should exceed 5MB (which covers several books). A CRAN package is not an appropriate way to distribute course notes, and authors will be asked to trim their documentation to a maximum of 5MB. Where a large amount of data is required (even after compression), consideration should be given to a separate data-only package which can be updated only rarely (since older versions of packages are archived in perpetuity). Similar considerations apply to other forms of “data”, e.g., .jar files. Source package tarballs should if possible not exceed 10MB. It is much preferred that third-party source software should be included within the package (as e.g. a vendor.tar.xz file) than be downloaded at installation: if this requires a larger tarball a modestly increased limit can be requested at submission.
