The goal of dverse is to make it easy to create a data frame of the metadata associated to the documentation of a collection of R packages.
If you maintain an R-package universe, it helps you to easily create a universe-wide reference for the pkgdown website of your meta-package (e.g. tidyverse, tidymodels).
Installation
Install from CRAN:
install.packages("dverse")or get a development version from GitHub:
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("maurolepore/dverse")Example
# Use dverse and the universe of packages you want to document
library(dverse)
library(tools)
library(datasets)
universe <- c("datasets", "tools")
url_template <- "https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/{package}/versions/3.6.2/topics/{topic}.html"
document_universe(universe, url_template = url_template)
