A reference to a listing in an R package git source code repository.

Usage

git_resource(
  package = NA_character_,
  version = NA_character_,
  id = next_id(),
  md5 = NA_character_,
  http_url = character(0)
)

Arguments

package

character(1L) Package name. Optional, but should be provided if possible.

version

character(1L) Package version, provided as a string.

id

integer(1L) optional id used for tracking resources throughout execution. Generally not provided directly, as new objects automatically get a unique identifier. For example, the package source code from a repo_resource() may be downloaded to add a source_archive_resource() and add it to a new multi_resource(). Because all of these represent the same package, they retain the same id. Primarily the id is used for isolating temporary files.

md5

character(1L) md5 digest of the package source code tarball. This is not generally provided directly, but is instead derived when acquiring resources.

http_url

The git repository url
