From R to CFF

Crosswalk

Diego Hernangómez

The goal of this vignette is to provide an explicit map between the metadata fields used by cffr and each one of the valid keys of the Citation File Format schema version 1.2.0.

Summary

We summarize here the fields that cffr can coerce and the original source of information for each one of them. The details on each key are presented on the next section of the document. The assessment of fields are based on the Guide to Citation File Format schema version 1.2.0 (Druskat et al. 2021).

Details

abstract

This key is extracted from the "Description" field of the DESCRIPTION file.

Example 
library(cffr)

# Create cffr for yaml

cff_obj <- cff_create("rmarkdown")

# Get DESCRIPTION of rmarkdown to check

pkg <- desc::desc(file.path(find.package("rmarkdown"), "DESCRIPTION"))

cat(cff_obj$abstract)
#> Convert R Markdown documents into a variety of formats.

cat(pkg$get("Description"))
#> Convert R Markdown documents into a variety of formats.

Back to summary.

authors

This key is coerced from the "Authors" or "Authors@R" field of the DESCRIPTION file. By default persons with the role "aut" or "cre" are considered, however this can be modified via the authors_roles parameter.

Example 
# An example DESCRIPTION
path <- system.file("examples/DESCRIPTION_many_persons", package = "cffr")
pkg <- desc::desc(path)

# See persons listed
pkg$get_authors()
#> [1] "Diego Hernangómez <fake@gmail.com> [aut, cre] (<https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8457-4658>, error, error)"
#> [2] "Joe Doe <I am a wrong email> [aut] (This One, ES, error)"                                             
#> [3] "Pepe Doe <fake@gmail.com> [aut] (error)"                                                              
#> [4] "I am an entity [cre] (2020-01-01, error)"                                                             
#> [5] "ERROR entity [cph] (for the administrative boundaries.)"                                              
#> [6] "ERROR person [cph] (<https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2042-7063>, for the gisco_countrycode dataset.)"


# Default behaviour, use authors and creators (maintainers)

Back to summary.

cff-version

This key can be set via the parameters of the cff_create()/cff_write() functions:

Example 
cff_objv110 <- cff_create("jsonlite", cff_version = "v1.1.0")

cat(cff_objv110$`cff-version`)
#> v1.1.0

Back to summary.

commit

This key is extracted from the "RemoteSha" field of the DESCRIPTION file. This is the case of packages installed using the r-universe or packages such as remotes or pak.

Example 
# An example DESCRIPTION
path <- system.file("examples/DESCRIPTION_r_universe", package = "cffr")
pkg <- desc::desc(path)

# See RemoteSha
pkg$get("RemoteSha")
#>                                  RemoteSha

contact

This key is coerced from the "Authors" or "Authors@R" field of the DESCRIPTION file. Only persons with the role "cre" (i.e, the maintainer(s)) are considered.

Example 
cff_obj <- cff_create("rmarkdown")
pkg <- desc::desc(file.path(find.package("rmarkdown"), "DESCRIPTION"))

cff_obj$contact
#> - family-names: Xie
#>   given-names: Yihui

Back to summary.

date-released

This key is extracted from the DESCRIPTION file following this logic:

Example 
# From an installed package

cff_obj <- cff_create("rmarkdown")
pkg <- desc::desc(file.path(find.package("rmarkdown"), "DESCRIPTION"))


cat(pkg$get("Date/Publication"))
#> 2024-05-17 11:40:02 UTC


cat(cff_obj$`date-released`)
#> 2024-05-17



# A DESCRIPTION file without a Date
nodate <- system.file("examples/DESCRIPTION_basic", package = "cffr")
tmp <- tempfile("DESCRIPTION")

# Create a temporary file
file.copy(nodate, tmp)

doi

This key is coerced from the "doi" field of the preferred-citation object. If not present and the package is on CRAN, it would be populated with the doi provided by CRAN (e.g. https://doi.org/10.32614/CRAN.package.cffr).

Example 
cff_doi <- cff_create("cffr")

cat(cff_doi$doi)
#> 10.21105/joss.03900

cat(cff_doi$`preferred-citation`$doi)
#> 10.21105/joss.03900

Back to summary.

identifiers

This key includes all the possible identifiers of the package:

Example 
file <- system.file("examples/DESCRIPTION_many_urls", package = "cffr")

pkg <- desc::desc(file)

cat(pkg$get_urls())
#> https://github.com/test/package https://test.github.io/package/ https://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/test/ http://google.ru https://gitlab.com/r-packages/behaviorchange

cat(cff_create(file)$url)

cff_create(file)$identifiers

#> - type: url
#>   value: http://google.ru
#> - type: url
#>   value: https://gitlab.com/r-packages/behaviorchange

Back to summary.

keywords

This key is extracted from the DESCRIPTION file. The keywords should appear in the DESCRIPTION as:

...
X-schema.org-keywords: keyword1, keyword2, keyword3
Example 
# A DESCRIPTION file without keywords
nokeywords <- system.file("examples/DESCRIPTION_basic", package = "cffr")
tmp2 <- tempfile("DESCRIPTION")

# Create a temporary file
file.copy(nokeywords, tmp2)
#> [1] TRUE

cat(cff_create(tmp2)$keywords)
#> keyword1 keyword2 keyword3

Additionally, if the source code of the package is hosted on GitHub, cffr can retrieve the topics of your repo via the GitHub API and include those topics as keywords. This option is controlled via the gh_keywords parameter:

Example 
# Get cff object from jsonvalidate

jsonval <- cff_create("jsonvalidate")

# Keywords are retrieved from the GitHub repo

jsonval
#> cff-version: 1.2.0
#> message: 'To cite package "jsonvalidate" in publications use:'
#> type: software
#> license: MIT
#> title: 'jsonvalidate: Validate ''JSON'' Schema'
#> version: 1.3.2
#> doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.jsonvalidate
#> abstract: Uses the node library 'is-my-json-valid' or 'ajv' to validate 'JSON' against

references

This key is extracted from the CITATION file if several references are provided. The first citation is considered as the preferred-citation and the rest of them as "references". It also extracts the package dependencies and adds those to this fields using citation(auto = TRUE) on each dependency.

Example

repository

This key is extracted from the "Repository" field of the DESCRIPTION file. Usually, this field is auto-populated when a package is hosted on a repo (like CRAN or the r-universe). For packages without this field on the DESCRIPTION (that is the typical case for an in-development package), cffr would try to search the package on any of the default repositories specified on options("repos").

In the case of Bioconductor packages, those are identified if a “biocViews” is present on the DESCRIPTION file.

If cffr detects that the package is available on CRAN, it would return the canonical url form of the package (i.e. https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=jsonlite).

Example 
# Installed package

inst <- cff_create("jsonlite")

cat(inst$repository)
#> https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=jsonlite

# Demo file downloaded from the r-universe

runiv <- system.file("examples/DESCRIPTION_r_universe", package = "cffr")
runiv_cff <- cff_create(runiv)

cat(runiv_cff$repository)
#> https://ropensci.r-universe.dev

desc::desc(runiv)$get("Repository")
#>                        Repository 
#> "https://ropensci.r-universe.dev"

# For in development package

norepo <- system.file("examples/DESCRIPTION_basic", package = "cffr")

# No repo
norepo_cff <- cff_create(norepo)

cat(norepo_cff[["repository"]])

# Change the name to a known package on CRAN: ggplot2

tmp <- tempfile("DESCRIPTION")
file.copy(norepo, tmp)
#> [1] TRUE

repository-artifact

This key is not extracted from the metadata of the package. See the description on the Guide to CFF schema v1.2.0.

  • description: The URL of the work in a build artifact/binary repository (when the work is software).

repository-code

This key is extracted from the "BugReports" or "URL" fields on the DESCRIPTION file. cffr tries to identify the url of the source on the following repositories:

Example 
# Installed package on GitHub

cff_create("jsonlite")$`repository-code`
#> [1] "https://github.com/jeroen/jsonlite"



# GitLab

gitlab <- system.file("examples/DESCRIPTION_gitlab", package = "cffr")
