Generate `utils::globalVariables()` from roxygen @autoglobal and @global tags.

## Installation

```r

# Install the released version from CRAN

install.packages("roxyglobals")

# Install the released version from r-universe

install.packages("roxyglobals", repos = "https://anthonynorth.r-universe.dev")

# Or the development version from GitHub:

# install.packages("remotes")

remotes::install_github("anthonynorth/roxyglobals")

```

## Setup

Add roxyglobals to an R package DESCRIPTION via:

```r

# Add to current R package

roxyglobals::use_roxyglobals()

# Or add to another R package

# install.packages("withr")

withr::with_dir("path/to/package", roxyglobals::use_roxyglobals())

```

## Config

By default, roxyglobals writes all discovered globals (including duplicates) to `R/globals.R`. You may configure the filename and global generation behaviour with:

```r

# write globals to R/generated-globals.R

roxyglobals::options_set_filename("generated-globals.R")

# only emit unique globals

roxyglobals::options_set_unique(TRUE)

```

## Usage

Add @autoglobal to a function roxygen comment block, example:

```r

#' Summarise responses

#'

#' @name summarise_responses

#' @param responses a data.frame of responses

#'

#' @autoglobal

#' @export

summarise_responses <- function(responses) {

  # station_name, station_type, end_time, start_time need to be added to 

  # utils::globalVariables() to keep R CMD CHECK happy

  responses |>

    dplyr::group_by(station_name, station_type) |>

    dplyr::summarise(

      count_responses = dplyr::n(),

      total_hours = sum(

        as.numeric(end_time - start_time, units = "hours"),

        na.rm = TRUE

      ),

      .groups = "drop"

    )

}

```

Or @global, example:

```r

#' Summarise responses

#'

#' @name summarise_responses

#' @param responses a data.frame of responses

#'

#' @global station_name station_type end_time start_time

#' @export

summarise_responses <- function(responses) {

  # station_name, station_type, end_time, start_time need to be added to 

  # utils::globalVariables() to keep R CMD CHECK happy

  responses |>

    dplyr::group_by(station_name, station_type) |>

    dplyr::summarise(

      count_responses = dplyr::n(),

      total_hours = sum(

        as.numeric(end_time - start_time, units = "hours"),

        na.rm = TRUE

      ),

      .groups = "drop"

    )

}

```

Run `devtools::document()` to generate `utils::globalVariables()` in your globals file (default `R/globals.R`). Example globals file:

```r

# Generated by roxyglobals: do not edit by hand

utils::globalVariables(c(

  "end_time", # 

  "start_time", # 

  "station_name", # 

  "station_type", # 

  NULL

))

```
