Bioconductor Maintained Packages

List all the packages associated with a maintainer. By default, it will return all packages associated with the maintainer@bioconductor.org email. hasBiocMaint returns a logical vector corresponding to the input character vector of packages indicating whether any package is maintained by the Bioconductor core team.

biocMaintained(
  main = "maintainer@bioconductor\\.org",
  version = BiocManager::version(),
  pkgType = c("software", "data-experiment", "workflows", "data-annotation")
)

hasBiocMaint(
  pkg,
  version = BiocManager::version(),
  main = "maintainer@bioconductor\\.org",
  repo = c("BioCsoft", "BioCexp", "BioCworkflows", "BioCann")
)

Arguments

main

character(1) The regex for searching through the Maintainer column as obtained from biocPkgList().

version

character(1) the character version number as used to access the online build report. For example, "3.14". The default is the "current version" as given by BiocManager::version(). Note that this is a character vector of length one and not a number.

pkgType

character(1) The type of packages for which to get build status information for. Valid values are:

• software: Software packages

• data-experiment: Experiment data packages

• data-annotation: Annotation data packages

• workflows: Workflow packages

pkg

character(1) A vector of package names (case sensitive).

repo

character() A vector of Bioconductor repositories to search through. By default, it will search through all Bioconductor repositories.

Value

For biocMaintained: a tibble of packages associated with the maintainer.

For hasBiocMaint: a logical vector indicating whether the package is maintained by Bioconductor.
