Dear all,
I wanted to share a tool revdeprun that I built over the weekend. It might be
useful if you maintain R packages with many reverse dependencies.
If you ever needed to run revdepcheck on a disposable cloud instance, you will
know that the setup can be tedious. Install R, set environment variables, and
handle other details before you can even start the actual checking. revdeprun
automates all that. Once installed, you can run a full reverse dependency check
with a single command:
revdeprun https://github.com/username/repo.git
It is written as a Rust CLI tool rather than an R package or a shell script,
which makes it a bit easier to compile and run without setting up language
runtime.
