Unit tests are a crucial tool in software development. Be sure to add tests for any new methods implemented. These will be run as part of the devtools::check().
We use pkgdown to generate the main site for rWikiPathways based on this README, metadata, man pages and vignettes. If you make changes to any of these, please take a moment to regenerate the site:
library(pkgdown)
pkgdown::build_site()
While this is the primary development repository for the rWikiPathways project, we also make regular pushes to official bioconductor repository (devel & release) from which the official releases are generated. This is the correct repo for all coding and bug reporting interests. The tagged releases here correspond to the bioconductor releases via a manual syncing process. The devel branch here corresponds to the latest code in development and not yet released.
git commit -m "informative commit message"
git push origin devel
git push upstream devel
http://bioconductor.org/developers/how-to/git/push-to-github-bioc/
Following each bioconductor release, a RELEASE_#_# branch is created. The new branch is fetched and devel is updated:
git fetch upstream
git checkout -b RELEASE_3_15 upstream/RELEASE_3_15
git push origin RELEASE_3_15
git checkout devel
git pull upstream devel
git push origin devel
Only bug fixes and documentation updates can be pushed to the official bioconductor release branch. After committing and pushing fixes to devel, then:
git checkout RELEASE_3_15
git cherry-pick devel #for lastest commit
# or git cherry-pick 1abc234 #for specific commit
# or git cherry-pick 1abc234^..5def678 #for an inclusive range
# bump release version in DESCRIPTION
git commit -am 'version bump'
git push origin RELEASE_3_15
# double check changes, and then...
git push upstream RELEASE_3_15
git checkout devel
# bump dev version in DESCRIPTION
git commit -am 'version bump'
git push origin devel
git push upstream devel
And then finally, bump version and commit DESCRIPTION to devel and push to origin and upstream.

When adding or updating vignettes, consider the following tips for consistency:
- Copy/paste the header from an existing rWikiPathways vignette, including the global knitr options
- Number the VignetteIndexEntry names w.r.t. other vignettes (this determines their presentation order)
- Avoid spaces in Rmd filenames; causes CHECK errors
- When ready, run Knit to html_vignette_ and review the generated html
- Note: you don't need to save the html version; it will be generated anew at Bioconductor.
- In the end, you should just have an Rmd version of each vignette in the repo.
