autodep automates writing roxygen tags - and tracking dependencies.

Hello! I’m Juraj Szitas.

I started out as an Econometrician, then I turned Data Scientist for a few years and eventually got sick of the AI hype. I currently work as a Quantitative Developer. My biggest passion (as you would probably be able to guess from here) is numerics, closely followed by anything time series related.

I keep my open source stuff here - in the hopes that someone finds it useful. It includes a lot of really neat little things that I either could not find elsewhere, or did not want to deal with the hassle of linking against/shipping with.

Check out:

• nlsolver Nonlinear optimizers as header-only, C++17 library.
• tinyqr A header-only, optimized C++17 implementation of the QR decomposition.
• soothsayer if you like the fable framework and the idea of meta learning for time series, you might like this
• blaze (WIP) A full fledged time series forecasting and analysis toolkit in modern C++.
  • contains a new (S)ARIMA(X) implementation leveraging SIMD
  • fully capable AR and AutoAR
  • Benchmark methods (Integrated Noise)
  • miscellaneous time series utility functions (seasonality identification, stationarity tests)
• gpvolatility for an implementation of a funky volatility model

I mainly program C++/python these days, but I will do anything that's needed :) I have reached the point where getting things done in a timely manner matters most.

autodep's Issues

Fix autodep "Cannot overwrite ..." message formatting

The current message is

Cannot overwrite existing file -please set overwrite to TRUE after checking your file.

Should be (with the space):

Cannot overwrite existing file - please set overwrite to TRUE after checking your file.

Autodep support for magrittr, data.table symbols

Add support for the magrittr pipe operator %>% and data.table symbols, such as := .

autodep should recognize existing handwritten roxygen tags

autodep should pick up on existing roxygen tag, particularly cases such as

#' @importFrom generics generate

and record these in the DESCRIPTION file (as otherwise it is just a hassle).

Autodep sometimes places a package in both Imports and Suggests

With packages used both internally as well as for testing, autodep will place the package in both (even though the Imports has precedence).

Thus, add a check package Imports before writing Suggests

Ignore non-/.R files in the R/ subdirectory

Currently, if rda (package data) are present, they are not ignored - leading to
Error in sourcetools::tokenize_file(file) : embedded nul in string: '\0'

This is unintended - we want to ignore all non .R files.

Autodep sometimes incorrectly records "Suggests"

Package imports potentially fail when using devtools::document()

When devtools::document() is called, files containing no objects to export (and only tags) are potentially ignored. I am not completely certain that this behaviour is intended, but II will try to make a minimal reprex later and talk to the devtools team - perhaps the change is intentional.

Fix library call function

Enable writing output to scripts.
Test more thoroughly.
Ensure the correct packages are used throughout.
