Hi,


I am trying to submit a package with a shiny app to cran.

I get 2 notes that I don't know how to resolve. I would appreciate

very much any suggestions/help.

Thanks a lot.


It seems the first note is on possibly misspelled words. I am using

camel-case to "explain" the name of the app, the app's name itself is
mostly capitalized, and the others are either names of objects or the
title (Transcriptomics), which I believe should be capitalized... So, I
don't really know how to overcome this.

Explain in your submission note why you spelled things the way you did.

Generally non-English words should be in single quotes; see 
https://cloud.r-project.org/web/packages/submission_checklist.html. 
But 
"sHiny" looks wrong in any case if it is not quoted.

With respect to the TRONCO license, I believe the reason for the

message is that they included a custom file, but they are also using
GPL3 (which I am required to use by my company) I don't see a
solution...

TRONCO is a Bioconductor package, and isn't declaring its GPL-3 license

in the format that CRAN wants.  Explain this in your submission note.

Then, there are some global variables and things that are only

defined under the inst directory. I came about the solution of putting
the main part of my app /inst by finding similar solutions on google. I
ran into a whole bunch of problems with putting everything under /R and
I can create a package etc on GitHub and locally and install them
through GitHub or locally. The only caveat is that I had to define
these variables to pass the arguments as there are different
environments involved... I think I chose the variable names in a way
that shouldn't interfere with anything...

Don't create global variables. The global environment is off limits to 
you. You can have an environment in your package that contains those 
variables.  This one you'll have to change, not just explain like the 
others.

As you can imagine by now, this is the first package I am submitting

and it is quite a daunting task, so I am very sorry to haven't
understood by now all the documentation and I am still hoping that the
approach I took is viable. ?

Thanks for taking the time to look into this.
