[R-pkg-devel] Warning Message on Vignettes

Hi everyone,

I am getting following two warnings when I submit my R package (perfectphyloR) to CRAN.

Warning 1: * checking files in 'vignettes' ... WARNING
             Files in the 'vignettes' directory but no files in 'inst/doc':
             'perfectphyloR.html', 'perfectphyloR.html.asis'

Warning 2: * checking package vignettes in 'inst/doc' ... WARNING
             dir.exists(dir) is not TRUE
             Package vignette without corresponding single PDF/HTML:
             'perfectphyloR.html.asis'

I want to make my vignette as a static html vignette (not the PDF). Therefore, I followed this documentation, https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/R.rsp/vignettes/R_packages-Static_PDF_and_HTML_vignettes.pdf

After including my html vignette (perfectphyloR.html) into the directory 'vignette', I created a file called "perfectphyloR.html.asis" and that file includes following lines:

%\VignetteIndexEntry{R packages: perfectphyloR}
%\VignetteEngine{R.rsp::asis}
%\VignetteKeyword{HTML}
%\VignetteKeyword{vignette}
%\VignetteKeyword{package}

Also, I added 'R.rsp' to the DESCRIPTION file as follows:
....
Suggests:
    knitr,
    rmarkdown,
    R.rsp
VignetteBuilder: R.rsp

So, I am wondering something is wrong with my .asis file or I am doing any other mistake. Could you help me fix this issue?

Thank you in advance!

Regards,

Charith.

Hi, how to you build your package?

I do:
mkdir -p inst/doc
mkdir vignettes
cp sources_vignettes/*.pdf* vignettes ## for linux add -u after cp
cp sources_vignettes/*.Rnw inst/doc ## for linux add -u after cp
(cd inst/doc/; for f in *.Rnw; do mv "$$f" "$${f%.Rnw}_source.txt"; done;)
Rscript -e "tools::compactPDF(paths = 'vignettes', gs_quality = 'printer')"
Rscript -e "devtools::build()"

Does that work for you?
Alex
