# freebase

A 'usethis'-esque Package for Base R Versions of 'tidyverse' Code

## Description

The 'tidyverse' is awesome, but can take a bit to compile on systems

where there are no pre-built binary packages. Methods are provided which use

the facilities of the 'usethis' package to snap-in base versions of useful

'tidyverse' functions that are mostly equivalent (some are more complete

than others). The base R counterpart functions will likely be slower than

the 'tidyverse' equivalents but using them will decrease 'Imports' 

dependencies. 

Use deliberately and with caution.

    

## NOTE

This package shares core concepts with [`noplyr`](https://github.com/yonicd/noplyr) (and the author of `noplyr` is a contributor to `freebase`). For valid, needed reason, `noplyr` uses `rlang` and that introduces a compilation dependency/requirement which `freebase` is trying to avoid. The goal of `freebase` is 100% base R implementation of core/most frequently used `tidyverse` components primarily for use by package authors who prefer `tidyverse` idioms and would like to use them in package development but do not want to introduce compilation and/or third-party dependencies.

As noted _just above_, `freebase` should be uses deliberately and with caution.

## What's Inside The Tin

The following functions are implemented:

- `use_detect`:	Use base R versions of `purrr` `detect` functions (these support `~{}` formula functions)

- `use_infix_helpers`: Use infix-helpers

- `use_isers`: Use "is_" tester functions

- `use_keepers`: Use base R versions of `purrr` `keep` functions (these support `~{}` formula functions)

- `use_mappers`: Use base R versions of `purrr` `map` functions (these support `~{}` formula functions) along with `set_names()`

- `use_safely`:	Use base R versions of `purrr` `safely` functions

- `use_tidylite()`: Use base R versions of core `tidyr` functions

- `use_walkers`: Use base R versions of `purrr` `walk` functions (these support `~{}` formula functions)
