The cran-based rcheckserver and recheck containers have been updated to R-4.4. and Ubuntu-24.04, which should make them more robust. Go give them a try: https://github.com/r-devel/recheck https://github.com/r-devel/rcheckserver/

Nosing around some old #RStats codebases and I came across some old links to R-Forge. I couldn't access the pages that the links pointed to and so it made me wonder.

Is anyone still using this resource, https://r-forge.r-project.org, or has everything moved to GitHub/Lab/Codeberg/Sourcehut/etc.?

This week there are two opportunities to share your questions/suggestions/ideas about R-universe.

On Monday (5pm CET) we meet with the R consortium repositories WG: https://github.com/RConsortium/r-repositories-wg

On Tuesday (6pm CET) I will host rOpenSci's social coworking / office hours: https://ropensci.org/events/coworking-2024-02/

Feel free to drop by!

New technote on the blog: R-universe now builds WASM binaries for all R packages. Big thanks to @gws for getting us this far! https://ropensci.org/blog/2023/11/17/runiverse-wasm/

We now build webassembly binaries (for use with webr) for all R packages on r-universe. The chromium icon in the table indicates if a wasm build is available, e.g. https://ropensci.r-universe.dev/builds

Over the last year we interviewed 5 research groups who actively develop R software about their goals, practices, struggles, and how they make use of r-universe.dev. Check out the wrap-up blog by @yabellini: https://ropensci.org/blog/2023/11/06/r-universe-stars-finale/

After talking to my friends who work for major consulting firms, I estimate you need a team of about 500 "professional" job-hopping money-driven 9-to-5 engineers, managers, and scrum masters to achieve the productivity of a single OSS dev who really knows and cares about a project.

Quick technote about new cran.dev shortlinks: https://ropensci.org/blog/2023/07/26/cran-dev/

jeroenooms, 10 months ago to random

🚀 Extending the cran.dev with a JSON api, e.g.

https://api.cran.dev/gert
https://api.cran.dev/dplyr

show the 'release' and 'devel' versions of a pkg, with links to corresponding source, docs, and metadata. Other subdomains:

https://cran.dev/gert
https://docs.cran.dev/gert

function as shortlink to the package landing page and docs.

🚀 You can now use cran.dev shortlinks:

https://cran.dev/{package}
https://docs.cran.dev/{package}

To fly directly to the r-universe dev page or html manual for any CRAN package! 🤓

I'm revisiting the problem of safe evaluation of untrusted R code.

That is: How could you easily run code from an untrusted source? How would you stop them from running "file.remove()" or worse?

I found the old shiny app I made to demo the idea.

Can you break out of the sandbox and make it run unsafe code? "rm()"? "file.remove()?
