--- title: "Available Hooks" description: > Check out all hooks this repo contains and how they can be customized output: rmarkdown::html_vignette vignette: > %\VignetteIndexEntry{available-hooks} %\VignetteEncoding{UTF-8} %\VignetteEngine{knitr::rmarkdown} editor_options: markdown: wrap: 72 --- Below is a comprehensive list with all hooks from {precommit} as well as their arguments or flags, if they take any. With the standard config file that gets placed in your project with `precommit::use_precommit()` all hooks should work out of the box, but you can further customize them as described below. Other repos also host hooks, many are listed [here](https://pre-commit.com/hooks.html). # Good to know **File modification** Some hooks will fail without changing the files you want to commit, like the `lintr` hook - and you need to make manual changes for the hook to pass on the next attempt. Other hooks like the `roxygenize` hook write to files, and if that changes the file, the hook will fail, but this means for most hooks you won't need to modify the file manually after the attempted commit, just stage the changes and try to commit again. Below, we indicate for every hook if it modifies files or not. **Arguments** Arguments for the hooks are specified as described in the [pre-commit.com documentation](https://pre-commit.com/#passing-arguments-to-hooks).[^1] You can specify arguments like this: [^1]: Note that there might be issues with arguments that contain special characters and you might have to quote them and the order of single, double and escaped quotes may not give identical results on one platform and may not be portable to all platforms either. ```{r, echo = FALSE, output = "asis", comment = "", message = FALSE} library(magrittr) rev <- paste0("v", packageVersion("precommit")) cat(glue::glue(" repos: - repo: https://github.com/lorenzwalthert/precommit rev: {rev} hooks: - id: lintr args: [--warn_only, --key=value] ")) ``` **Other hook settings** Apart from specifying the `args` key as described above, there are other hooks settings you can specify, e.g. file exclusion. If you don't, they are inherited from the default repository's configuration (i.e. the `.pre-commit-hooks.yaml` file in ). See the [pre-commit documentation](https://pre-commit.com/#pre-commit-configyaml---hooks), for the available settings. # Hooks ## `style-files` A hook to style files with [styler](https://styler.r-lib.org). Only commit code corresponding to the tidyverse style guide. You can pass arguments to [`style_file(...)`](https://styler.r-lib.org/reference/style_file.html) using the `--key=value` syntax like this: id: style-files args: [--scope=spaces, --reindention=specify_reindention('#')] In addition, the hook takes the following arguments that are not passed to [`style_file(...)`](https://styler.r-lib.org/reference/style_file.html): - Argument `style_pkg` and `style_fun` default to `styler` and `tidyverse_style`. If you want to use another style guide than the tidyverse style guide, you can specify it like this: id: style-files args: [--style_pkg=pkg.with.style.guide, --style_fun=exported.style.function] - The argument `--no-warn-cache` is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please remove it from your `.pre-commit-config.yaml`. - Argument `cache-root` is passed to `options()` to set `styler.cache_root`. Default value: `styler-perm`. The argument determines the sub-directory under the {R.cache} cache directory that {styler} uses. If you want {styler} to auto-clean up caches older than 6 days, set this to `"styler"`. For more information, see `help("caching", package = "styler")`. id: style-files args: [--cache-root=styler] - Argument `ignore-start` and `ignore-stop` is passed to `options()` to set `styler.ignore_start` and `styler.ignore_stop` respectively. Not set by default, so the {styler} defaults apply. This was introduced in {precommit} 0.2.2.9012. For example, if you want to restore old behavior of styler \< 1.6.2, where only the literals `styler: off` and `styler: on` were accepted, use this regex: id: style-files args: [--ignore-start="^# styler: on$", --ignore-stop="^# styler: off$"] This hook modifies files unless you specify `--dry=fail` (requires `{styler} > 1.3.2`). ## `readme-rmd-rendered` Make sure `README.Rmd` hasn't been edited more recently than `README.md`, i.e. remind you to render the `.Rmd` to `.md` before committing. This hook does not modify files. ## `parsable-R` Checks if your `.R` and `.Rmd` files are "valid" R code by checking if running `parse()` on them (or their `knitr::purl()`ed output for `.Rmd`) returns an error. This hook does not modify files. ## `no-browser-statement` Guarantees you that you don't accidentally commit code with a `browser()` statement in it. This hook does not modify files. ## `no-print-statement` Guarantees you that you don't accidentally commit code with a `print()` statement in it. This hook does not modify files. This hook was added in version 0.3.2.9020. ## `no-debug-statement` Guarantees you that you don't accidentally commit code with a `debug()` or `debugonce()` statement in it. This hook does not modify files. This hook was added in version 0.2.2.9012. ## `spell-check` Checks spelling with `spelling::spell_check_files()`. **Excluded files** When you invoke `precommit::use_precommit()` and `.pre-commit-config.yaml` is written to your repo (unless you specify `config_source` otherwise), we copy the expression in the `exclude:` key from spell check hook the default repository's configuration (i.e. the `.pre-commit-hooks.yaml` file in ) into your config file, so you can easily add or remove some files. As of `r paste0("v", packageVersion("precommit"))`, the following regex is used to exclude files following the [verbose python regex syntax](https://pre-commit.com/#regular-expressions): ```{r, echo = FALSE, comment = ""} readLines(system.file("pre-commit-hooks.yaml", package = "precommit")) %>% gsub("^ *exclude *: *>", " exclude: |", .) %>% yaml::yaml.load() %>% purrr::keep(~ .x$id == "spell-check") %>% magrittr::extract2(1) %>% magrittr::extract2("exclude") %>% cat(sep = "\n") ``` **language** The `lang` arg will be passed to `spelling::spell_check_files()`. id: spell-check args: [--lang=] **read only** The `--read-only` flag will be passed to spell check. This flag makes this hook idempotent. id: spell-check args: [--read-only] This hook does not modify input files. It will add all words not found in the dictionary to `inst/WORDLIST`, assuming they were spelled correctly but were not in the dictionary. An example might be "RStudio". The hook error message will contain all words written to `inst/WORDLIST`, so if there were really some typos, make sure to fix them and remove them from `inst/WORDLIST`. If there were not typos, or you fixed all, stage `inst/WORDLIST` and this time, the commit should pass. To opt out of updating `inst/WORDLIST` provide the `--read-only` flag. ## `roxygenize` A hook to run `roxygen2::roxygenize()`. Makes sure you commit your `.Rd` changes with the source changes. To take advantage of caching, you don't need to run `roxygen2::roxygenize()` manually anymore. The argument `--no-warn-cache` is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please remove it from your `.pre-commit-config.yaml`. Because the hook will write the version of {roxygen2} to `DESCRIPTON`, you should either make sure the version you use when you call {roxygen2} interactively matches the one from in {precommit} or simply not run {roxygen2} manually. If you specify additional roclets through the `Roxygen:` field in `DESCRIPTION`, e.g. from [{pkgapi}](https://github.com/r-lib/pkgapi) you must specify the dependencies explicitly such that `renv::install()` understands it, e.g. id: roxygenize additional_dependencies: - r-lib/pkgapi This hook does not modify input files, but writes to `.Rd` files in `man/`, `NAMESPACE` and potentially others depending on which roxygen roclets you specified in `DESCRIPTION`. **Arguments** id: roxygenize args: [--root=] - Argument `root` specifies the directory in the git repo that contains the R package. Defaults to `.` since for most R package git repos, the git and R package root coincide. Added in version 0.3.3.00000. ## `deps-in-desc` Checks if packages used with the `pkgname::fun()` syntax are listed in your DESCRIPTION file. Note that `README.Rmd` is never checked. **Arguments** - Flag `allow_private_imports` lets the user specify that private imports into the package namespace are tolerable, e.g. `somepkg:::x()`. Flag not set by default, i.e. the hook will fail if such a call is found. id: deps-in-desc args: [--allow_private_imports] - Argument `root` specifies the directory in the git repo that contains the R package. Defaults to `.` since for most R package git repos, the git and R package root coincide. Added in version 0.3.2.9000. id: deps-in-desc args: [--root=] This hook does not modify the file `DESCRIPTION` because the user should decide for each package if it should go to `Imports:` or `Suggests:`, which can be done easily with `usethis::use_package()`. ## `use-tidy-description` A hook to run `usethis::use_tidy_description()` to ensure dependencies are ordered alphabetically and fields are in standard order. This hook does modify the file `DESCRIPTION`. **Arguments** id: use-tidy-description args: [--root=] - Argument `root` specifies the directory in the git repo that contains the R package. Defaults to `.` since for most R package git repos, the git and R package root coincide. Added in version 0.3.3.00000. ## `lintr` A hook to run `lintr::lint()` to check that R files are lint free. Argument `warning_only` changes the behavior of the pre-commit to be non-blocking. You should set this with the field `verbose: true`. id: lintr args: [--warn_only] verbose: true When configured this way, lintr prints lint errors as they appear. Other arguments are not supported. Instead, `lintr` config should be specified in a `.lintr` config file in Debian Control Field Format as specified in the [`.lintr` documentation](https://github.com/r-lib/lintr#project-configuration). This hook does not modify any file. ## `codemeta-description-updated` Make sure `DESCRIPTION` hasn't been edited more recently than `codemeta.json`, i.e. remind you to run `codemetar::write_codemeta()` in order to keep `codemeta.json` in sync with `DESCRIPTION`. This hook does not modify any file. **Arguments** id: codemeta-description-updated args: [--root=] - Argument `root` specifies the directory in the git repo that contains the R package. Defaults to `.` since for most R package git repos, the git and R package root coincide. Added in version 0.3.3.00000. ## `pkgdown` Check if your {pkgdown} config file (e.g. `_pkgdown.yml` in your root) has the correct entries for references and articles. This hook skips the time-consuming parts of building the index and reference and only performs the validation. Hence we don't rely on the extensive dependency graph of {pkgdown} being installed, including packages with heavy build-time dependencies and system libraries. For this check, we rely on the the global R package library and require all development dependencies of the package you want to run this hook for to be installed, as well as {pkgdown} (without its dependencies). This hook does not modify files. Added in version 0.3.2.9003.
