Request: Add release tag to r2d3 about r2d3 HOT 6 CLOSED

Fantastic! Thank you @javierluraschi!

Also - I have this version of the package up on Anaconda cloud if it is helpful to anyone using conda:

anaconda download amandamasonsingh/r-r2d3

from r2d3.

@javierluraschi - Sure, sounds like a plan! I will regularly check back in whenever I am using the r2d3 package and will update it on my anaconda cloud account when I do so.

Thanks!

(UPDATE: The anaconda cloud version of the package r-r2d3 is updated to v0.2.2 as of May 30th, 2018 - the install instructions above are valid for installing this version.)

@amandamasonsingh tag available in https://github.com/rstudio/r2d3/releases/tag/v0.2.0

from r2d3.

@amandamasonsingh not sure how easy it is to update the anaconda release, but we made a couple tweaks to the v0.2.0 release tag, will they be automatically picked? Otherwise, the anaconda release would be missing minified JS files and avoid console errors on really old browsers, not deal breakers but would be nice to keep in sync CRAN and Anaconda releases.

@javierluraschi - it's fairly easy to update the anaconda package - but it does require a manual update each time. Since I have the anaconda package on my anaconda cloud account, that means that I would need to update it each time. I certainly am ok with updating the package whenever I need to use it, but I might not be as prompt in updating as someone who is closer to the project.

If your team would rather host this on your own anaconda cloud account then that's fine - OR see if anaconda can host it as one of their r-essentials packages. In such case, I think they might keep it up-to-date?

Here is a tutorial on how to build a conda package using conda skeleton: https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/tutorials/build-pkgs-skeleton.html
(in this case, we need conda skeleton cran https://github.com/rstudio/r2d3. Note also that you have to build a package for the htmlwidgets as well first, which I also have hosted on my anaconda cloud account anaconda download amandamasonsingh/r-htmlwidgets)

(Also note: If anyone needs an updated version to use at any time, they can always build their own conda package using the steps described above with the conda skeleton cran https://github.com/rstudio/r2d3 command.)

Hi @amandamasonsingh, I don't have enough bandwidth to also maintain the anaconda packages, so feel free to update this package in anaconda as your time permits. I just wanted to point out that there are new release tags that you might want to consider porting to the anaconda repo.
