R-bones

A yeoman generator for R projects.

Introduction

R-bones is a yeoman-generator for R-projects using Rcpp and 'RcppEigen'. Projects created with R-bones are ready for publication to CRAN or Bioconductor. The generator creates

• a GPL3 license,
• an Rcpp/RcppEigen integration,
• static code analysis and reports using lintr,
• a unit-test suite using testthat,
• badges for the project status, build status using Travis CI/Appveyor and code coverage using Codecov,
• documentation with roxygen and a custom vignette,
• example S3, S4 methods and classes,
• custom NEWS, README.md, TODO.md and VERSIONS.md files,
• a prototype hello.R, hello.cpp and testthat.R.

The resulting folder-structure looks like this:

	|____.codecov.yml
	|____.gitattributes
	|____.gitignore
	|____.lintr
	|____.Rbuildignore
	|____.travis.yml
	|____.yo-rc.json
	|____appveyor.yml

Installation

Yeoman comes with npm, so install it first and then call:

  npm install -g yo
  npm install -g generator-R-bones

Once you have the package, you can create a scaffold using:

  yo r-bones

This builds the skeleton. Afterwards modify the sources and documentation and build both using:

  R CMD build package && R CMD install package.tar.gz
