Add a minimum R version dependency to a package

Source: R/46_use_r_v4.1.0.R
use_r_v4.1.0.Rd

Adds R (>= 4.1.0) to the Depends field of a package's DESCRIPTION file. This sets a minimum R version requirement for your package. Then you can use \() and |> syntax in your package.

  • Requires that the target directory is an R package root (contains a DESCRIPTION file).

  • Calls usethis::use_package() to add the dependency.

Usage

use_r_v4.1.0(path = NULL, ...)

Arguments

path

Path to the package root. If NULL (the default), the current working directory is used.

...

Must be empty. Reserved for future arguments.

Value

Invisibly returns NULL, called for side effects.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
tmpdir <- tempdir()
usethis::create_package(path = tmpdir)
use_r_v4.1.0(path = tmpdir)
} # }
