Cast '(R)Markdown' Files to 'XML' and Back Again

Parsing '(R)Markdown' files with numerous regular expressions can be fraught with peril, but it does not have to be this way. Converting '(R)Markdown' files to 'XML' using the 'commonmark' package allows in-memory editing via of 'markdown' elements via 'XPath' through the extensible 'R6' class called 'yarn'. These modified 'XML' representations can be written to '(R)Markdown' documents via an 'xslt' stylesheet which implements an extended version of 'GitHub'-flavoured 'markdown' so that you can tinker to your hearts content.

Querying and Managing Large Biodiversity Occurrence Datasets

Facilitates the gathering of biodiversity occurrence data from disparate sources. Metadata is managed throughout the process to facilitate reporting and enhanced ability to repeat analyses.

'NOAA' Weather Data from R

Client for many 'NOAA' data sources including the 'NCDC' climate 'API' at < https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/webservices/v2>, with functions for each of the 'API' 'endpoints': data, data categories, data sets, data types, locations, location categories, and stations. In addition, we have an interface for 'NOAA' sea ice data, the 'NOAA' severe weather inventory, 'NOAA' Historical Observing 'Metadata' Repository ('HOMR') data, 'NOAA' storm data via 'IBTrACS', tornado data via the 'NOAA' storm prediction center, and more.

Generate 'CodeMeta' Metadata for R Packages

The 'Codemeta' Project defines a 'JSON-LD' format for describing software metadata, as detailed at < https://codemeta.github.io>. This package provides utilities to generate, parse, and modify 'codemeta.json' files automatically for R packages, as well as tools and examples for working with 'codemeta.json' 'JSON-LD' more generally.

A Smaller 'codemetar' Package

The 'Codemeta' Project defines a 'JSON-LD' format for describing software metadata, as detailed at < https://codemeta.github.io>. This package provides core utilities to generate this metadata with a minimum of dependencies.

Render SVG Images into PDF, PNG, (Encapsulated) PostScript, or Bitmap Arrays

Renders vector-based svg images into high-quality custom-size bitmap arrays using 'librsvg2'. The resulting bitmap can be written to e.g. png, jpeg or webp format. In addition, the package can convert images directly to various formats such as pdf or postscript.

Advanced Graphics and Image-Processing in R

Bindings to 'ImageMagick': the most comprehensive open-source image processing library available. Supports many common formats (png, jpeg, tiff, pdf, etc) and manipulations (rotate, scale, crop, trim, flip, blur, etc). All operations are vectorized via the Magick++ STL meaning they operate either on a single frame or a series of frames for working with layers, collages, or animation. In RStudio images are automatically previewed when printed to the console, resulting in an interactive editing environment. Also includes a graphics device for creating drawing onto images using pixel coordinates.

Text Mining using 'dplyr', 'ggplot2', and Other Tidy Tools

Using tidy data principles can make many text mining tasks easier, more effective, and consistent with tools already in wide use. Much of the infrastructure needed for text mining with tidy data frames already exists in packages like 'dplyr', 'broom', 'tidyr', and 'ggplot2'. In this package, we provide functions and supporting data sets to allow conversion of text to and from tidy formats, and to switch seamlessly between tidy tools and existing text mining packages.

World Vector Map Data from Natural Earth Used in 'rnaturalearth'

Vector map data from < https://www.naturalearthdata.com/>. Access functions are provided in the accompanying package 'rnaturalearth'.

HTTP Client

A simple HTTP client, with tools for making HTTP requests, and mocking HTTP requests. The package is built on R6, and takes inspiration from Ruby's 'faraday' gem (< https://rubygems.org/gems/faraday>). The package name is a play on curl, the widely used command line tool for HTTP, and this package is built on top of the R package 'curl', an interface to 'libcurl' (< https://curl.se/libcurl/>).
