ascribe scans R projects for package and function use. Other packages can use the results to generate citations without maintaining their own parser.
Installation
You can install the development version of ascribe from GitHub with:
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("VisruthSK/ascribe")Example
Build a package universe, then cite the code that uses it:
library(ascribe)
universe <- build_universe_data("stats")
usage <- scan_usage(path, universe$packages, universe$export_index, universe$origin_map)
cite_usage(usage)
