r - What's the proper way to handle a github script dependency in a CRAN package? -
there's great r script on github build correlation heatmaps via ggplot2 (doesn't matter, wanted hat tip).
this script function, it's not on cran (as such), , not package. (it is part of upstream cran package, crucial bugfixes in script don't seem make upstream repo, let alone cran. without bugfixes, it's unusable.).
this function used internally package, , never directly exposed users.
what's proper way use script in package?
i'd to:
- properly recognize script's authors work
- have pass cran (obviously)
- be able merge in upstream changes (from script)
- script should sourced (or whatever) on
library(mypkg)
, that's ready go , not remote-sourced via internet anytime uses function (that bad).
i thinking of copy/pasting file, a) recognition, , b) there has better way.
