Re: [R-pkg-devel] Large data package

Dear Dirk, Thanks a lot for your detailed explanation. This is indeed the solution that I have found to work nicely, and indeed keeps the code equally tidy. In fact, I am finding that using :: to access exported objects instead of ::: to access any object in the data package even helps me organi

Dear Dirk and Duncan, Thanks a lot for your clarifications. Both of your explanations make sense. Indeed, I would rather not have any other packages depend on the data package, at least not for the time being, in case I find good reasons to make modifications in the data package. But it makes

Dear All, Following Dirk's suggestion below, I have recently added a data package as a drat repository for my asteRisk package, placing it under Suggests in the main package. In order to keep the code tidy and know exactly when I’m accessing the data in the data package, I access all the data i

Here’s a blog post on using drat with github actions to make data deployment to drat automatic. Maybe more than you need. Disclaimer, I’m the post author. Bryan https://chemospec.org/2021/04/11/p19/ > On Apr 27, 2021, at 3:09 PM, Ayala Hernandez, Rafae

Re: [R-pkg-devel] Large data package

Dear Dirk and Berry, Thanks a lot for your input and for pointing me to the very nice article on the R Journal. It seems to me that hosting the data via GitHub by using the drat package is the best solution. I will work towards this implementation. Best wishes, Rafa > El 28 abr 2021, a las 0:

[R-pkg-devel] Large data package

Dear all, I am in the process of including a large update for my package asteRisk, that will require the usage of large data files (amounting in total to ~100 MB). Given the CRAN package size limits of 5 MB, I am wondering what is the preferred solution in these cases? I have read multiple poss

Hello, I have two questions about creating data packages for data that will be updated and in total are >5 MB in size. The first question is: In the CRAN policy, it indicates that packages should be ?5 MB in size in general. Within a package that I'm working on, I need access to data t
