Spherical Geometry Operators Using the S2 Geometry Library

Provides R bindings for Google's s2 library for geometric calculations on the sphere. High-performance constructors and exporters provide high compatibility with existing spatial packages, transformers construct new geometries from existing geometries, predicates provide a means to select geometries based on spatial relationships, and accessors extract information about geometries.

Toolkit for Encryption, Signatures and Certificates Based on OpenSSL

Bindings to OpenSSL libssl and libcrypto, plus custom SSH key parsers. Supports RSA, DSA and EC curves P-256, P-384, P-521, and curve25519. Cryptographic signatures can either be created and verified manually or via x509 certificates. AES can be used in cbc, ctr or gcm mode for symmetric encryption; RSA for asymmetric (public key) encryption or EC for Diffie Hellman. High-level envelope functions combine RSA and AES for encrypting arbitrary sized data. Other utilities include key generators, hash functions (md5, sha1, sha256, etc), base64 encoder, a secure random number generator, and 'bignum' math methods for manually performing crypto calculations on large multibyte integers.

Access Uber's H3 Library

Provides access to Uber's H3 library for geospatial indexing via its JavaScript transpile 'h3-js' < https://github.com/uber/h3-js> and 'V8' < https://github.com/jeroen/v8>.

'Blowfish' Key Derivation and Password Hashing

Bindings to the 'blowfish' password hashing algorithm < https://www.openbsd.org/papers/bcrypt-paper.pdf> derived from the 'OpenBSD' implementation.

Extract Text from Rich Text Format (RTF) Documents

Wraps the 'unrtf' utility < https://www.gnu.org/software/unrtf/> to extract text from RTF files. Supports document conversion to HTML, LaTeX or plain text. Output in HTML is recommended because 'unrtf' has limited support for converting between character encodings.

Authenticate as a 'GitHub' App

'GitHub' apps provide a powerful way to manage fine grained programmatic access to specific 'git' repositories, without having to create dummy users, and which are safer than a personal access token for automated tasks. This package extends the 'gh' package to let you authenticate and interact with 'GitHub' < https://docs.github.com/en/rest/overview> in 'R' as an app.

Minimal and Uncluttered Package Documentation

Generates simple and beautiful one-page HTML reference manuals with package documentation. Math rendering and syntax highlighting are done server-side in R such that no JavaScript libraries are needed in the browser, which makes the documentation portable and fast to load.

Text Extraction, Rendering and Converting of PDF Documents

Utilities based on 'libpoppler' < https://poppler.freedesktop.org> for extracting text, fonts, attachments and metadata from a PDF file. Also supports high quality rendering of PDF documents into PNG, JPEG, TIFF format, or into raw bitmap vectors for further processing in R.

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.

Bindings to 'OpenCV' Computer Vision Library

Exposes some of the available 'OpenCV' < https://opencv.org/> algorithms, such as a QR code scanner, and edge, body or face detection. These can either be applied to analyze static images, or to filter live video footage from a camera device.
