Tools for Managing SSH and Git Credentials

Setup and retrieve HTTPS and SSH credentials for use with 'git' and other services. For HTTPS remotes the package interfaces the 'git-credential' utility which 'git' uses to store HTTP usernames and passwords. For SSH remotes we provide convenient functions to find or generate appropriate SSH keys. The package both helps the user to setup a local git installation, and also provides a back-end for git/ssh client libraries to authenticate with existing user credentials.

Working with Audio and Video in R

Bindings to 'FFmpeg' < http://www.ffmpeg.org/> AV library for working with audio and video in R. Generates high quality video from images or R graphics with custom audio. Also offers high performance tools for reading raw audio, creating 'spectrograms', and converting between countless audio / video formats. This package interfaces directly to the C API and does not require any command line utilities.

High-Performance Stemmer, Tokenizer, and Spell Checker

Low level spell checker and morphological analyzer based on the famous 'hunspell' library < https://hunspell.github.io>. The package can analyze or check individual words as well as parse text, latex, html or xml documents. For a more user-friendly interface use the 'spelling' package which builds on this package to automate checking of files, documentation and vignettes in all common formats.

Bindings to 'OpenCV' Computer Vision Library

Exposes some of the available 'OpenCV' < https://opencv.org/> algorithms, such as a QR code scanner, and edge, body or face detection. These can either be applied to analyze static images, or to filter live video footage from a camera device.

Tools for Spell Checking in R

Spell checking common document formats including latex, markdown, manual pages, and description files. Includes utilities to automate checking of documentation and vignettes as a unit test during 'R CMD check'. Both British and American English are supported out of the box and other languages can be added. In addition, packages may define a 'wordlist' to allow custom terminology without having to abuse punctuation.

HTTP and WebSocket Server Library

Provides low-level socket and protocol support for handling HTTP and WebSocket requests directly from within R. It is primarily intended as a building block for other packages, rather than making it particularly easy to create complete web applications using httpuv alone. httpuv is built on top of the libuv and http-parser C libraries, both of which were developed by Joyent, Inc. (See LICENSE file for libuv and http-parser license information.)

High Performance CommonMark and Github Markdown Rendering in R

The CommonMark specification < https://github.github.com/gfm/> defines a rationalized version of markdown syntax. This package uses the 'cmark' reference implementation for converting markdown text into various formats including html, latex and groff man. In addition it exposes the markdown parse tree in xml format. Also includes opt-in support for GFM extensions including tables, autolinks, and strikethrough text.

Query 'R' Versions, Including 'r-release' and 'r-oldrel'

Query the main 'R' 'SVN' repository to find the versions 'r-release' and 'r-oldrel' refer to, and also all previous 'R' versions and their release dates.

Google's Compact Language Detector 3

Google's Compact Language Detector 3 is a neural network model for language identification and the successor of 'cld2' (available from CRAN). The algorithm is still experimental and takes a novel approach to language detection with different properties and outcomes. It can be useful to combine this with the Bayesian classifier results from 'cld2'. See < https://github.com/google/cld3#readme> for more information.

Server-Side Syntax Highlighting

Prism < https://prismjs.com/> is a lightweight, extensible syntax highlighter, built with modern web standards in mind. This package provides server-side rendering in R using 'V8' such that no JavaScript library is required in the resulting HTML documents. Over 400 languages are supported.
