Martin, I am using the "Template for Resource Queries" ( http://bioconductor.org/developers/how-to/web-query/). I think the correct is: while (N.TRIES > 0L) { # line 5 instead of while (N.TRIES >= 0L) { # line 5 Because it will run twice when N.TRIES = 1L. At the end of the loop N.TRIES

Re: [Bioc-devel] Writing examples for accessing web API

Thank you Martin for the response, it was very helpful. I am facing difficulties to write code examples, unit tests and vignettes for accessing web APIs. I understand that the use of \dontrun{} is not the best solution for examples. I am using testthat::skip_on_bioc() to avoid time consuming and

Re: [Bioc-devel] Writing examples for accessing web API

Thank you Nan Xiao, I think it is a good solution for my case. I will put the definition of host outside the \dontrun{}. Welliton Em ter, 7 de mar de 2017 16:27, Nan Xiao escreveu: > - this check can be bypassed by > writing "partially working" examples, > for instance: >

- this check can be bypassed by writing "partially working" examples, for instance: #' token = "foo" #' \dontrun{ #' api(..., token)} Best, -Nan On Tue, Mar 7, 2017 at 2:13 PM, Welliton Souza wrote: > Hi Sean, > > It doesn't require authentication. I've been using this

Re: [Bioc-devel] Writing examples for accessing web API

Hi Sean, It doesn't require authentication. I've been using this server ( http://1kgenomes.ga4gh.org) to provide working examples and do unit tests but I am not responsible for this server. However the package was developed to access any server endpoint that use the same API. There are many web

Re: [Bioc-devel] Writing examples for accessing web API

Hi, Welliton. Great question. Just out of curiosity, what are the internet connection requirements that preclude running examples? Is authentication required? Or are you connecting to a server that runs only intermittently? Sean On Tue, Mar 7, 2017 at 1:57 PM, Welliton Souza

[Bioc-devel] Writing examples for accessing web API

Hi, I am developing a package that access web API endpoints. I wrote the examples within \dontrun{} due to internet connection requirements. However, the BiocCheck reports that I should provide at least 80 % of running examples. What I should do? The package is mainly focused on accessing web API
