rhino 1.7.0

CRAN release: 2024-02-22

See How-to: Rhino 1.7 Migration Guide

  1. Introduce linters for box::use statements:
    • box_universal_import_linter checks if all imports are explicit.
    • box_trailing_commas_linter checks if statements include trailing commas.
    • box_func_import_count_linter checks if the number of function imports does not exceed the limit.
    • box_separate_calls_linter checks if packages and modules are imported in separate statements.
  2. Major refactor of rhino::app():
    • The request parameter is now correctly forwarded to the UI function when using a legacy_entrypoint (#395).
    • Force evaluation of arguments in higher-order functions to avoid unexpected behavior due to lazy evaluation (internal).
  3. Add support for shiny.autoreload.

    • Upgrade all remaining Node.js dependencies to latest versions and fix vulnerabilities.
    • The minimum supported Node.js version is now 16.
  4. Introduce RHINO_NPM environment variable to allow using npm alternatives like bun and pnpm.

rhino 1.3.1

CRAN release: 2023-05-12

  1. test_r() now clears the environment of loaded box modules before tests are run. This removes the need for box::reload() calls in tests.

  1. Rhino now works with shinytest2 out of the box.

rhino 1.2.0

CRAN release: 2022-11-27

  1. Don’t use symbolic links internally. This fixes a couple of issues with Node.js tools on Windows:
    • Developer Mode is no longer needed.
    • The build_js() and build_sass() functions now work with watch = TRUE.
    • The lint_js() function now works when imports are used in JavaScript.
  2. Drop dependency on Yarn - only Node.js is now required.
  3. Improved Rhino CI:
  4. The lint_r() now accepts a paths argument which can be used to run it on specific files.
  5. The init() function will refuse to run in the home directory unless force = TRUE is passed.
  6. Shiny bookmarking works better with legacy_entrypoint: source (the UI function no longer needs to take an argument).
  7. Upgraded to lintr >= 3.0.0 and updated linter rules.
