Get data on package usage across repositories — get_R_package

Wrapper over searching repositories by code blobs related to loading package (library(package) and require(package) in all files) or using it as a dependency (package in DESCRIPTION and NAMESPACE files).

Usage

get_R_package_usage(
  gitstats_object,
  package_name,
  only_loading = FALSE,
  cache = TRUE,
  verbose = is_verbose(gitstats_object)
)

Arguments

gitstats_object: A GitStats object.
package_name: A character, name of the package.
only_loading: A boolean, if TRUE function will check only if package is loaded in repositories, not used as dependencies.
cache: A logical, if set to TRUE GitStats will retrieve the last result from its storage.
verbose: A logical, TRUE by default. If FALSE messages and printing output is switched off.

Value

A data.frame.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
 my_gitstats <- create_gitstats() %>%
  set_github_host(
    token = Sys.getenv("GITHUB_PAT"),
    orgs = c("r-world-devs", "openpharma")
  )

 get_R_package_usage(my_gitstats, "Shiny")
}
