CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.6.2 MAJOR CHANGES o the roxygen2 comments in Rd and NAMESPACE are no longer removed CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.6.1 MAJOR CHANGES o existing tarballs of the source package will be deleted before building the new tarball with `rab()` CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.6 NEW FEATURES o `rab(install = TRUE)` can automatically generate an Rd file for objects that are imported from other packages and later re-exported in the current package; this is done through the internal function `importRd()` o when `build = FALSE` and `install = TRUE` in `rab()`, the package directory instead of the built tar ball is installed o added an argument `install.opts` to `rab()` to specify options for `R CMD INSTALL` (default: `--with-keep.source` if `build = FALSE`, otherwise empty) o added an argument `before` to `rab()` so we can evaluate an R expression before the package is roxygenized and built o if the Examples section starts with a special token `# !formatR`, the example code will not be reformatted o spaces will be added after commas in \item{}, e.g. \item{x,y,z}{} will be converted to \item{x, y, z}{} CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.5 MINOR CHANGES o make sure the correct R executable is used (i.e. always use file.path(R.home('bin'), 'R')) CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.4 NEW FEATURES o added a new argument 'build.opts' to rab() to pass options to R CMD build MAJOR CHANGES o the new feature @returnItem introduced in Rd2roxygen 1.1 was temporarily removed, since it is not supported in roxygen2 (3.0.0) yet CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.3 MAJOR CHANGES o Rd2roxygen depends on formatR v0.9 for better handling of example and usage code CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.2 NEW FEATURES o added NULL to create_roxygen() when docType is data or package (#9) o Rd2roxygen() tries to add the @export tags according to the exported names in the NAMESPACE (#10, #11 and #12) o when reformatting usage and example sections, rab() tries to make code width smaller than 90, as required by R CMD check MINOR CHANGES o the package vignette is built with knitr alone now (under R 3.0.x) CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.1 NEW FEATURES o \item{} in the \value{} section will be formatted as the @returnItem tag, which is a new tag in roxygen2 (> 2.2.2) (#8) (thanks, Andreas Alfons) o R code in \dontrun{}, \dontshow{} and \donttest{} can be reformatted by formatR now MINOR CHANGES o the vignette is built with knitr via the Makefile; in previous versions, it was a fake Rnw document (essentially a weaved tex file) o dependency on roxygen2 and formatR was changed to Imports o default value for 'check.opts' in rab() is '--as-cran' now CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.0-7 NEW FEATURES o @section is supported now: \section{title}{content} will be converted to ##' @section title: content (thanks, Brian G. Peterson) MINOR CHANGES o the package vignette now compiles with knitr instead of Sweave CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.0-6 BUG FIXES o \dontrun{} can be correctly reformatted now; there was a bug in the previous version when options(replace.assign = TRUE) CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.0-5 NEW FEATURES o usage for S3 methods like \method{generic}{class}(param = value) can be correctly reformatted now; in previous versions rab() will ignore such usage sections CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.0-4 NEW FEATURES o Rd files that have \docType{data} or \docType{package} (for datasets and package documentation) are written into xxx-package.R directly; these names are not looked up in R scripts under the R directory of the source package o Rd comments (following %) will be ignored when generating roxygen comments for arguments CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.0-3 NEW FEATURES o a complete example of running Rd2roxygen() on a real package was added to ?Rd2roxygen o re-run Rd2roxygen() on a package will remove the roxygen comments in R scripts before adding new roxygen comments parsed from Rd files; in old versions of this package, the old roxygen comments were not removed, hence the comments were added incrementally above the function objects, which was certainly not desirable MINOR CHANGES o all these forms of quotes in assignments are allowed in Rd2roxygen(): `foo` <-, 'foo' <-, "foo" <-, and = can be used as the assigning operator as well CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.0-2 MAJOR CHANGES o the usage sections in Rd files will be reformatted by default again when calling rab() (this feature was formerly removed in version 1.0-0) MINOR CHANGES o rab(..., install = TRUE) will install the *.tar.gz file rather than the package directory; similarly, rab(..., check = TRUE) checks the tar ball as well CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.0-1 MINOR CHANGES o the percent symbols in the examples code will be unescaped (i.e. \% becomes %) before the code is reformatted, then escaped again; this can avoid errors when reformatting the code, since \% is an illegal character in R CHANGES IN Rd2roxygen VERSION 1.0-0 NEW FEATURES o Rd2roxygen uses the brand-new roxygen2 rather than the old roxygen package which is no longer maintained; users are recommended to read the NEWS file of roxygen2 carefully. Some major changes include: the description is in the second *paragraph* rather than the second *line* now (i.e. there is an empty line between the title and description); @format and @source are supported, and a series of new tags are introduced in roxygen2 too MAJOR CHANGES o the escape and use.Rd2 arguments are removed in rab() since roxygen2 can handle these cases elegantly o roxygen.dir is the same as the package directory by default, so rab() will write all the documentations in the original package directory o the usage section is no longer reformatted by formatR; roxygen2 formats it nicely o the function rm_undocumented() is no longer needed, so it was removed from this package; use @noRd if you do not want the documentation of a certain object to be generated by roxygen2
