Changelog

macrtools 0.0.4

Features

• Updated to support R 4.4.0 on macOS.

Deployment

• GitHub Actions now tests the package on release and next versions of macOS R’s version.

macrtools 0.0.3

Breaking change

• We’ve loosened the requirement to have Xcode CLI installed. The package will now accept if you have the Xcode.app IDE installed.
  • Note: The Xcode.app IDE requires significantly more space compared to Xcode CLI. We highly suggest that you install Xcode CLI.

Features

• Added is_xcode_app_installed() to check to see if the full Xcode.app IDE is present.
• Added xcodebuild() to understand properties about the Xcode.app IDE installation.

Changes

• Updated the supported version of macOS to macOS Sonoma (14.0.0).
• Improved the error message when the version of macOS is not supported.
• xcode_cli_install() and macos_rtools_install() have been modified to skip the installation of Xcode CLI if the full Xcode.app IDE is detected.

Documentation

• Switched describing the ARM Mac entries from M1 or M2 to M-series to generalize with how Apple names software.
• Improved details regarding the paths being chosen for software installed.

Deployment

• Updated the GitHub Actions for both R-CMD-check and pkgdown.

macrtools 0.0.2

Features

• Support the toolchain compilation requirements for 4.3.z series
• Updated the gfortran binary to the universal v12.2 Fortran installer across both Intel and arm64 platforms.
  • The gfortran path placed into ~/.Renviron is now /opt/gfortran/bin/gfortran.
• Recipes now supports the darwin20/x86_64 version (macOS 11) for Intel.
  • New installation directories for recipes downloads are given as:
