helske / changer Goto Github PK

The path to my package contains a (. When I run changer I get the following error (anonymized):

sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `('
sh: -c: line 0: `'mv' /Users/orgadish/Dropbox (Work)/R packages/my_package /Users/orgadish/Dropbox (Work)/R packages/my_new_package'

What I've done so far is to move it to a different folder, run changer and then move it back.

Hi @helske
Thanks for this handy package. I wonder if you plan on including yml/yaml in the files to be modified when changing the package names. These files are now very prevalent in R packages and it would be great if it could be included.

Would like to be able to use without overwriting the existing source tree by first copying to a new source tree. Thus if package is called A and is in source tree A and if we want to change it to B then it would create a new directory B by copying A to B and then operate in B.

Also the original version A could either be a directory tree or a .tar.gz file in which case it would be de-tar'd into B.

When trying to run R_CMD_Check following name change I got the following message in build pane.

Doesn't allow me to rebuild the package locally after that

After submitting the changer::changer() command the following prompt appears without any context. Would be useful to know why this is being asked this as part of a package rename function. Thanks.

Hi @helske
Data saved in a package can cause problems when changing the package names. I am not sure if there is a way to deal with this in changer, other than reading the files after changing the name.
I ran into this problem recently and the error message was not very informative. It would be nice if changer produced an error when .rda files are detected.
What do you think?
