v2.11.0 (2024-11-09)

  • [setup-r-dependencies] parameter pak-version can now be repo or none as well. repo means that the action will install pak from the configured repositories, using install.packages(). repo is appropriate on systems that do not have access to our pak reporitory on GitHUb. none means that the action does not install pak at all. Use this if you want to install pak yourself manually. Set the R_LIB_FOR_PAK environment variable to point to the library where pak is installed.

  • [setup-r] now has a working-directory parameter, to be able to specify the location of the renv.lock file (#922, @calderonsamuel).

  • Example check-like workflows now run on all pull requests, not only on pull requests against the main branch.

  • [setup-r-dependencies] and [setup-renv] now do not use the deprecated save-always parameter of actions/cache.

  • [setup-renv] now correctly accepts bypass-cache: never, as stated in the documentation.

  • [setup-r-dependencies] now saves the package cache correctly on Windows with older R (#940).

v2.10.1 (2024-08-08)

  • [setup-r-dependencies] now pins quarto-dev/quarto-actions/setup version to a constant sha, to be compatible with organizations where this is a requirement (#901).

  • [setup-renv] now also caches R packages in renv/library, used when RENV_CONFIG_PAK_ENABLED: true (#900).

  • [setup-manifest]: new action to set up an R project with a Posit Connect manifest.json file (#880).

v2.10.0 (2024-08-02)

  • [setup-r]: on R 3.6.x we now use the P3M snapshot from 2024-06-01 by default. This is because many newer CRAN packages do not work on R 3.6.x any more. The default CRAN mirror is still added, so newer packages may be used if they are required, but setup-r-dependencies@v2 will prefer the binary packages from P3M.

    Note that this only happens if you opt in to use P3M with the use-public-rspm: true input parameter. This is the default in all example workflows.

    If the RSPM environment variable is already set, then it is used unchanged, on all R versions. To avoid using a P3M snapshot on R 3.6.x, set the RSPM_PIN_3_6 environment variable to false.

  • [setup-r] now installs the x86_64 build of R on arm64 macOS, if there is no arm64 build available for this R version (#883).

  • Example blogdown, bookdown, document, pr-commands and render-markdown workflows now correctly have write permission to repository contents (#874, @remlapmot).

  • [check-r-package]: you can now setupload-snapshots to always, to upload snapshots even after failures (#871).

  • [setup-r-dependencies] now always sets the R_LIBS_USER GitHub environment variable, so it can be used without [setup-r] or without setting it manually (#881).

  • The example workflows now use their file names as workflow names. This is to make it easier to match worflow runs to workflow files. Most of the the check-* workflows use R-CMD-check.yaml, however, to anticipate the usethis package renaming them by default (#888).

  • [setup-renv]: you can now set bypass-cache to never, to save the cache even if the workflow fails (#873, @jaradkohl-mfj).

  • [setup-pandoc]: installing nightly Pandoc works again now (#889).

  • [setup-r-dependencies] now automatically installs Quarto if the repo has a qmd file, and it isn't installed. See the install-quarto and quarto-version input parameters (#866).

  • [setup-r] now avoids spurious warnings from Homebrew (#864).

  • [setup-r-dependencies] now accepts pak-version: none to skip pak installation. pak should be already installed on the system in this case, otherwise the dependencies resolution and installation will fail. You probably also need to set the R_LIB_FOR_PAK env var to the library where it is installed.

v2.9.0 (2024-05-09)

  • The test-coverage.yaml example workflow now handles global Codecov tokens for test coverage uploads to codecov.io (@ALanguillaume, @gaborcsardi, #823).

  • The check-full.yaml example does not test on R 3.6.x any more.

  • All example workflows set the default permissions now to read-only.

  • We deleted the (long broken) run-rchk action. R-hub will have an rchk container and builder soon: r-hub/containers#29.

  • [setup-r-dependencies]: new option to save the R package cache for unsuccessful workflow runs as well (@schloerke, #695).

  • New example workflows bookdown-gh-pages and blogdown-gh-pages to deploy bookdown books and blogdown sites to GH Pages without commiting them into the repository (#856).

v2.8.7 (2024-04-05)

  • [setup-r-dependencies] now has a lockfile-create-lib input parameter, that is passed to pak::lockfile_create(lib = ...) (#814).

v2.8.6 (2024-03-30)

  • [setup-r] now does not install qpdf on Windows, because it is part of all Rtools versions that we use. Also, it installs Ghostscript from a .zip file instead of a choco package, because choco install can sometimes freeze (#812).

v2.8.5 (2024-03-26)

  • [setup-r] uses a different tag name to download system packages from on Windows. This is to fix r-lib/usethis#1967.

v2.8.4 (2024-03-25)

  • [setup-r]: Ghostscript and QPDF installation is now more robust on Windows. We download and install manually, instead of installing from the Chocolatey repository (#812).

v2.8.3 (2024-03-20)

  • [setup-r] now sets the HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALLED_DEPENDENTS_CHECK=true environment variable when installation associated tools on macOS. Without this brew often fails on outdated Homebrew installations (#810).
  • [setup-r-dependencies] now works on aarch64 Linux.

v2.8.2 (2024-03-18)

  • [setup-r] now supports Rtools44, and installs Rtools44 for R 4.4.x (currently R-devel).
  • [check-r-package] now supports upload-results: never to never upload check results as artifacts. This is useful if you want to handle artifact uploads yourself.

  • [setup-r-dependencies]: fix Pandoc auto-installation (#808).

v2.8.0 (2024-02-27)

  • [setup-pandoc] now supports arm64 macOS and any amd64 or arm64 Linux distribution.
  • [setup-r-dependencies] now installs pandoc if the R package depends on the rmarkdown package.
  • [check-r-package] now has inputs artifact-name and snapshot-artifact-name to specify artifact names explicitly (#800).
  • The styler example now sets permissions correctly (#775, @thisisnic).
  • The test coverage example now handles paths with spaces or special characters (#782, @Felixmil).
  • The check example workflows now use a better build_args parameter (#787).

v2.7.2 (2024-02-01)

  • [check-r-package] now uses better artifact names. It includes matrix.config.id from the job matrix in the artifact name. If that's not defined then the zero-based job index in the matrix is used. For non-matrix jobs, this is 0.

v2.7.1 (2024-01-31)

  • [check-r-package] now includes the runner architecture in the name of the test output artifact, to avoid a name clash between macos-14 and other macOS runners.

v2.7.0 (2024-01-31)

  • [setup-r] now removes Homebrew R from the PATH on macOS. With this setup-r works on the new arm64 macos-14 platform.

v2.6.5 (2023-10-27)

  • [setup-r] now tries to avoid *.r-project.org URLs, to work around a DNS issue.

v2.6.3 (2023-04-26)

  • [setup-r] now installs gfortran 12.2 only for R 4.3.0 and newer, as it is not compatible with the R 4.1.x (and possibly other) R builds (#722).

v2.6.2 (2023-04-24)

  • [setup-r] sets its installed-r-version output correctly again, to the actual R version number.
  • [setup-r] now installs gfortran 12.2 for R 4.0.0 and newer. This fixes fortran compilation for R 4.3.0 and newer.

v2.6.1 (2023-04-21)

  • [setup-r] observes the rtools-version input parameter again (#720).

  • The example document.yaml workflow now also saves the DESCRIPTION file (#694, @dpprdan).

v2.4.0 (2023-01-16)

  • [setup-r]: supports Rtools43 now. On R-devel Windows Rtools43 is installed by default (#682).

v2.2.8 (2022-08-31)

  • Examples now use ubuntu-latest instead of ubuntu-20.04. This avoid having to update your workflows every two years. It does not change anything right now, however, as ubuntu-latest is the same as ubuntu-20.04 currently.

v2.2.0 (2022-04-01)

  • [setup-r] now supports next as an R version. It installs the next version of R. This is R-patched if there is no active release process. Otherwise it can be R-alpha, R-beta, R-rc or R-prerelease (#542).
  • [setup-r-dependencies] has a new cache input parameter, which you can set to false to disable the cache (@Bisaloo, #530).

  • [setup-r] Rtools42 version updated to latest.

v2.1.1 (2022-02-14)

  • [setup-r-dependencies] uses the correct cache key now, previously it was truncated.

v2.0.11 (2022-01-16)

  • [setup-r] forces HTTP/1.1 for pak/pkgcache.
  • [setup-r-dependencies] does the same. This seems to fix crashes during package installation (#483).

  • The pkgdown example now uses clean: false to allow a production and a dev site.

v2.0.9 (2022-01-11)

  • [setup-r] now does not download qpdf on Windows, because it is already included in Rtools (#474).

v2.0.8 (2022-01-11)

  • [check-r-package] does not print the environment now, because there is a slight chance that printing exposes processed secrets that GitHub's reduction mechanism misses.

  • Simplified GitHub Pages deployment in the pkgdown example (#468).

v2.0.6 (2022-01-05)

v2.0.5 (2021-12-17)

  • [setup-r-dependencies] now works with older versions of the sessioninfo package. (This typically happens on older R versions and Windows or macOS, where pak prefers to install an older binary package to a newer source package, unless the newer package is needed.)

v2.0.4 (2021-12-16)

Breaking changes from v1

  • [check-r-package]: many parameters have a new format now, and they need to be legal R expressions.
  • [setup-r] does not have a crayon.enabled parameter now. You can update .Rprofile manually to set options if you like, see example in the README.

New compared to v1

  • [check-r-package] has a working-direcytory parameter now (#393).
  • [check-r-package] prints the testthat output, and uploads artifacts on failure now, no need to do these in the workflow file.

  • [setup-r] now works on macOS Big Sur for older R versions (#412).
  • [setup-r-dependencies] has more robust dependency and system dependency lookup and installation (#370, #386, #405, #419, #430, #431, #432, #437).

The v1 versions of the actions are now formally deprecated, and they generate warning messages.

v1.0.1 (2021-12-15)

  • [setup-r] and [setup-r-dependencies] do not treat R version devel-ucrt specially any more, and it is equivalent to devel.
