A NEWS

A.1 Version 1.0.1 (2021-03-04)

A.1.1 New features

• bioc-package.Rmd
  • Split into parallel workflows: “rworkflows” and “usethis + biocthis”.
  • Removed section referencing usethis::use_coverage() as this is no longer necessary due to changes to how
    Codecov works.
  • Add subheaders to the ## Edit the DESCRIPTION file section for easier navigation
  • Added sections on:
    • Depends
    • Imports
    • Suggests
    • Remotes
  • Rename section to make more generalisable: Create a template GitHub Actions –> Enable GitHub Actions
  • Rename section to make less ambiguous: Using GitHub Actions –> Deploy GitHub Actions

A.1.2 Bug fixes

• Install biochis via remotes::install_bioc() instead of remotes::install_cran() (which doesn’t work).
• Fixed typos throughout.
• Fixed typo vignette/–>vignettes/
• Example GHA workflow report expired, so it’s weird to reference it in tutorial:
  • https://github.com/kevinrue/MyBioconductorPackage/runs/6388422844?check_suite_focus=true
  • Instead, just include a link to the Actions tab.
  • Rather than saying “The full report is fairly large; only the ERROR message is displayed below.” just collapse the full report by default.
• .github/workflows/build_deploy.yml: Needed a number of fixes.
  • pandoc is already included in the Bioconductor docker images, and trying to install it yourself causes problems.
  • Even if you were doing this without the Bioc Docker container, you would have to fix r-lib/actions/setup-pandoc@master (which no longer exists) –> r-lib/actions/setup-pandoc@v2

A.2 Version 1.0.0 (2021-07-27)

• Initial definition of the mentorship guidelines.
