document how an R package can depend on CmdStanR (even if on CRAN)

Open jgabry opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

We should document how an R package can depend on CmdStanR via the Additional_repositories field in the DESCRIPTION file (e.g., how brms does it).

This will definitely be interesting. However I think it would still be much better if CmdStanR can make it to CRAN. Even if you start with a low version number and not everything has panned out yet etc. Again, we are happy to help. Please let us know how we could help :)

@wlandau Related to this issue, do you want to add something to one of the CmdStanR vignettes about developing packages with your new instantiate package? A natural place for that could be in

Thanks @jgabry, that sounds great! Would a couple sentences and a link to the instantiate package docs be enough?

Great, yeah that sounds good. Thanks!
