Powerful and Reliable Tools for Running System Commands in R

Drop-in replacements for the base system2() function with fine control and consistent behavior across platforms. Supports clean interruption, timeout, background tasks, and streaming STDIN / STDOUT / STDERR over binary or text connections. Arguments on Windows automatically get encoded and quoted to work on different locales.

Portable File Locking

Place an exclusive or shared lock on a file. It uses 'LockFile' on Windows and 'fcntl' locks on Unix-like systems.

Masked User Input

A micro-package for reading "passwords", i.e. reading user input with masking, so that the input is not displayed as it is typed. Currently we have support for 'RStudio', the command line (every OS), and any platform where 'tcltk' is present.

OpenTelemetry R API

High-quality, ubiquitous, and portable telemetry to enable effective observability. OpenTelemetry is a collection of tools, APIs, and SDKs used to instrument, generate, collect, and export telemetry data (metrics, logs, and traces) for analysis in order to understand your software's performance and behavior. This package implements the OpenTelemetry API: < https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otel/>. Use this package as a dependency if you want to instrument your R package for OpenTelemetry.

Cyclomatic Complexity of R Code

Cyclomatic complexity is a software metric (measurement), used to indicate the complexity of a program. It is a quantitative measure of the number of linearly independent paths through a program's source code. It was developed by Thomas J. McCabe, Sr. in 1976.

In-Line Documentation for R

Generate your Rd documentation, 'NAMESPACE' file, and collation field using specially formatted comments. Writing documentation in-line with code makes it easier to keep your documentation up-to-date as your requirements change. 'roxygen2' is inspired by the 'Doxygen' system for C++.

A Collection of Network Data Sets for the 'igraph' Package

A small collection of various network data sets, to use with the 'igraph' package: the Enron email network, various food webs, interactions in the immunoglobulin protein, the karate club network, Koenigsberg's bridges, visuotactile brain areas of the macaque monkey, UK faculty friendship network, domestic US flights network, etc.

Private Configuration for 'R' Packages

Set configuration options on a per-package basis. Options set by a given package only apply to that package, other packages are unaffected.

Debug R Packages

Specify debug messages as special string constants, and control debugging of packages via environment variables.

Testing for Shiny Applications

Automated unit testing of Shiny applications through a headless 'Chromium' browser.
