Release notes

AcidDevTools 0.7.4 (2023-12-13)

New functions:

• inspectRow: Quickly examine nested values in a data.frame row. Supports any object that can be coerced to a data.frame.

AcidDevTools 0.7.3 (2023-10-24)

New functions:

• rebuildBinary: New function for updating problematic binary file in drat repo. Added this after I hit S4 subclass caching issues related to the change in AcidGenomes from HumanToMouse to JaxHumanToMouse. This affected AcidSingleCell and DESeqAnalysis. Function is vectorized, supporting multiple packageName in a single call.

AcidDevTools 0.7.2 (2023-10-06)

Minor changes:

• view2: Need to set optional = TRUE for as.data.frame coercion.

AcidDevTools 0.7.1 (2023-10-03)

Minor changes:

• No longer reexporting functions from remotes.

AcidDevTools 0.7.0 (2023-09-28)

New functions:

• cacheTestFiles: New utility function used in other packages to quickly cache files for testthat build checks.
• longtest: Variant of test that runs optional tests defined in longtests. This is useful for matching recommended Bioconductor conventions. These tests are run in a temporary directory.
• nonCamelArgs: Check for documented arguments that are not correctly formatted in strict camel case.
• nonCamelExports: Check for exported functions that are not correctly formatted in strict camel case.

Minor changes:

• check: Now returns the amount of time required to run checks.

AcidDevTools: 0.6.18 (2023-09-21)

Minor changes:

• check: Don't check as CRAN by default. Can have issues with requireNamespace not finding packages as expected.

AcidDevTools 0.6.17 (2023-09-21)

Minor changes:

• check: Check as CRAN by default. Also added tweaks to BiocCheck settings.

AcidDevTools 0.6.16 (2023-09-14)

AcidDevTools 0.6.15 (2023-09-07)

Minor changes:

• catVec: Now handles return of named vectors. This addition was very useful for improving code coverage against Sanger CellModelPassports in the recent Cellosaurus package update.

AcidDevTools 0.6.14 (2023-08-15)

Minor changes:

• check: Ensure that testthat test does not return successful if any errors or warnings are detected. This requires coercion of testthat_results to a data.frame.

AcidDevTools 0.6.9 (2023-05-31)

• check: Now checking that all required and suggested packages are installed before proceeding. Otherwise we can run into NAMESPACE linter errors.

AcidDevTools 0.6.8 (2023-05-22)

• valid: Improved checking of binary/source packages when pkgType is set to "both" mode. This applies primarily to macOS.
• findAndReplace now uses parallel instead of BiocParallel internally.

AcidDevTools 0.6.7 (2023-05-17)

• Disabling error on warning during install and uninstall steps, to avoid current issues with Bioconductor 3.17 repos.

AcidDevTools 0.6.6 (2023-05-02)

• devinstall: Improved install support of Bioconductor dependencies when dependencies = TRUE is set.

AcidDevTools 0.6.5 (2023-02-09)

• valid: Bug fix for incorrect quoting of package names.

AcidDevTools 0.6.3 (2023-01-09)

• valid: Improved singular/plural handling of package names.

AcidDevTools 0.6.2 (2022-11-22)

• valid: Restricted internal old.packages call to specifically check .Library.site and ignore .Library, so that we don't return unwanted messages about outdated system packages.

AcidDevTools 0.6.1 (2022-10-25)

• check: Don't error on URL check failures. This is often too strict, and currently problematic when checking AcidGenomes package.

AcidDevTools 0.6.0 (2022-10-20)

• install: Added back type argument, to install from source when required on macOS, as a lot of binaries are still not being built in a timely manner.
• Removed unused dev function.
• Reworked internal functions to rely less upon goalie package when possible. Switched back to using stopifnot instead of assert, and message instead of alert.
• Added a simplified internal variant of requireNamespaces, which makes conditional loading of packages easier. Follows the conventions of the function defined in AcidBase, with the exception that our internal version here always returns a logical, instead of erroring on failure. This is intended to be called within stopifnot.
• updatePackages: Simplified validity check after packages are installed.
• Using styler instead of formatR for code formatting.
• Removed formatR, gh, and reticulate, rmarkdown, tibble as suggested packages.
• Removed pipette and syntactic functions (e.g. loadData, saveData; camelCase, snakeCase, etc.) as reexports, to avoid unwanted NAMESPACE collision message when loading pipette package.

AcidDevTools 0.5.11 (2022-09-13)

• installRecommendedPackages: Added base R recommended packages that are normally included with binary installs: KernSmooth, MASS, Matrix, boot, class, cluster, codetools, foreign, lattice, mgcv, nlme, nnet, rpart, spatial, survival.

AcidDevTools 0.5.8 (2022-08-01)

• installRecommendedPackages: Increased the priority of data.table package, to ensure it builds from source to enable multiple cores with OpenMP support on macOS. The binary package of data.table is currently compiled with support for single core mode only on macOS.

AcidDevTools 0.5.7 (2022-07-29)

• valid: Improved checks for old built system packages, by calling old.packages internally. Currently, BiocManager valid variant doesn't check if built system packages are out of date.
• Removed internal usage of custom Makevars.
• Removed reexports from lobstr package.

AcidDevTools 0.5.6 (2022-06-20)

• installRecommendedPackages: No longer recommending RDAVIDWebService, which was removed in Bioconductor 3.14 update.

AcidDevTools 0.5.5 (2022-06-10)

• check: Hardened URL checker to error on failure.

AcidDevTools 0.5.4 (2022-06-09)

• installRecommendedPackages: Simplified this function. No longer allowing selection of specific optional packages to install, as this is too confusing.

AcidDevTools 0.5.3 (2022-05-31)

• Improved file path normalization consistency using .realpath internally, matching our conventions defined in AcidBase. This helps improve file path message consistency on Windows.

AcidDevTools 0.5.2 (2022-05-24)

• drat: Bug fix for default branch handling in drat repo.

AcidDevTools 0.5.1 (2022-05-23)

AcidDevTools 0.4.9 (2022-04-13)

• Simplified R package configuration on macOS, enforcing binary installs for difficult to build packages, when possible.

AcidDevTools 0.4.8 (2022-03-21)

• Added support for custom styler theme defined as acid_style.
• Added wrapper support for style_dir, style_file, and style_pkg, which uses our acid_style styler theme by default, instead of tidyverse conventions. In particular, this enforces 4 spaces instead of 2.

• Migrated from using pryr to lobstr.
• Removed unused memfree function.

AcidDevTools 0.3.14 (2021-06-04)

• check: Added biocCheck and coverage arguments. Now checking package coverage for at least 80% coverage by default.

AcidDevTools 0.3.13 (2021-05-19)

• installRecommendedPackages: Added GRmetrics and dr4pl, for IC50 calculations.

AcidDevTools 0.3.12 (2021-05-18)

• Fix for BiocManager / install.packages handling in R 4.1

AcidDevTools 0.3.10 (2021-05-18)

• check: Made lintr, urlchecker, and BiocCheck checks optional if these packages are not installed. This can be the case inside Docker images.

AcidDevTools 0.3.9 (2021-05-18)

• Removed clearWarnings from exports, which doesn't seem to be compatible with R 4.1 due to inability to assign last.warning to base environment.
• memfree: Now using %s instead of %d internally in sprintf call, due to hardened change in R 4.1.

AcidDevTools 0.3.8 (2021-05-12)

• installRecommendedPackages: Made this function more modular, allowing for the user to specify which types of extra packages should be installed. Applies primarily to Bioconductor (i.e. next-generation sequencing) analysis packages, which can often be quite large and inappropriate for a compact virtual machine instance.

AcidDevTools 0.3.7 (2021-05-10)

• install: Bug fix for stopifnot check on makevarsFile.
• Updated references to available and urlchecker packages.

AcidDevTools 0.3.6 (2021-05-03)

AcidDevTools 0.3.5 (2021-04-30)

• install: Improved autoconf handling for data.table, geos, rgl, and sf packages. Refer to internal .autoconf code for details.

AcidDevTools 0.3.4 (2021-04-27)

• install now ensures data.table gets built from source automatically. Currently on macOS, the prebuilt CRAN binaries don't enable parallel threading by default due to improper OpenMP configuration, which is annoying. Since we install the fxcoudert GCC compiler by default, let's use this instead to enable OpenMP and parallel processing support. May want to consider a similar approach in the future for Rcpp, etc.

AcidDevtools 0.3.3 (2021-04-27)

• Increased verbosity of dyn.load calls during load_all, which is very useful for debugging package load time and dependency chain.

AcidDevTools 0.3.2 (2021-04-23)

• install: Added new autoconf option, which will automatically set internal configuration overrides automatically for some problematic packages (e.g. rgl on macOS).

• printComment: Bug fix to better set the width.
• Removed pc alias, which can get masked by Bioconductor.

bb8 0.2.48 (2020-12-16)

bb8 0.2.5 (2020-01-07)

• Removed lookup package from reexports, to avoid accidental installation of GitHub versions that cause BiocManager::valid() check to fail.

bb8 0.2.4 (2019-12-04)

• install and updatePackages no longer attempt to install and/or update suggested packages by default. I ran into some dependency issues with Seurat (SDMTools and adehabitat). See Seurat issue #2377.
