Create a Task to Check a Package from Source

Source: R/checks_df.R
source_check_tasks_df.Rd

Create data.frame which each row defines a package for which R CMD check should be run. Such data.frame is a prerequisite for generating check_design() which orchestrates all the processes including dependencies installation.

Usage

source_check_tasks_df(path)

Arguments

path

path to the package source. Can be either a single source code directory or a directory containing multiple package source code directories.

Value

The check schedule data.frame with the following columns:

  • alias: The alias of the check to run. It also serves the purpose of providing a unique identifier and node name in the task graph.

  • version: Version of the package to be checked.

  • package: Object that inherits from check_task_spec(). Defines how package to be checked can be acquired.

  • custom: Object that inherits from custom_install_task_spec(). Defines custom package, for instance only available from local source, that should be installed before checking the package.

Details

_tasks_df() functions generate check task data.frame for all source packages specified by the path. Therefore it accepts it to be a vector of an arbitrary length.
