This hands-on workshop will allow you to transform a bunch of R functions into an R package. You’ll also learn how to make it usable and used! We’ll assume you can write functions, and a basic familiarity with Git & GitHub.
Here is what we’ll learn:
Why develop a package?
What is in a package?
devtools workflow to create a package
Automatic tools for improving a package, from R CMD Check to linting
RTI MicroPEM is a small particulate matter personal exposure monitor, increasingly used in developed and developing countries. Each measurement session produces a csv file which includes a header with information on instrument settings and a table of thousands of observations of time-varying variables such as particulate matter concentration, relative humidity. Files need to be processed for 1) generating a format suitable for further analysis and 2) cleaning the data to deal with the instruments shortcomings.
A quick presentation of rOpenSci Software Peer Review, in a pre-conference session that was aimed at newcomers to useR! as an introduction to the conference and the wider R community.
