Overview

About

Maintained by Corrado Lanera5 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Pigna [_pìn'n'a_] is the Italian word for pine cone. In jargon, it is used to identify a task which is boring, banal, annoying, painful, frustrating and maybe even with a not so beautiful or rewarding result, just like the obstinate act of trying to challenge yourself in extracting pine nuts from a pine cone, provided that, in the end, you will find at least one inside it. Here you can find a backpack of functions to be used to solve small everyday problems of coding or analyzing (clinical) data, which would be normally solved using quick-and-dirty patches. You will be able to convert 'Hmisc' and 'rms' summary()es into data.frames ready to be rendered by 'pander' and 'knitr'. You can access easy-to-use wrappers to activate essential but useful progress bars (from 'progress') into your loops or functionals. Easy setup and control Telegram's bots (from 'telegram.bot') to send messages or to divert error messages to a Telegram's chat. You also have some utilities helping you in the development of packages, like the activation of the same user interface of 'usethis' into your package, or call polite functions to ask a user to install other packages. Finally, you find a set of thematic sets of packages you may use to set up new environments quickly, installing them in a single call.

Install

R (source archive)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)openSUSE (OBS)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/depigner/depigner_0.9.1.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "depigner_0.9.1.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.9.1) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("CorradoLanera/depigner")

Development version from CorradoLanera/depigner. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-depigner

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-depigner

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
