Documenting packages

As well as documenting every object inside the package, you can also document the package itself by documenting the special sentinel "_PACKAGE". This automatically includes information parsed from the DESCRIPTION, including title, description, list of authors, and useful URLs.

We recommend placing package documentation in {pkgname}-package.R, and have @keywords internal. Use usethis::use_package_doc() to set up automatically. Here’s an example:

#' @keywords internal
"_PACKAGE"

Package documentation is a good place to put # Package options that documents options used by the package.

Some notes:

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
