# Update function names data from previous data and newly updated CRAN ## Description Update function names data from previous data and newly updated CRAN packages only. ## Usage ```r pkgstats_fns_update( prev_results = NULL, results_file = NULL, chunk_size = 1000L, num_cores = 1L, results_path = tempdir() ) ``` ## Arguments * `prev_results`: Result of previous call to this function, if available. Submitting previous results will ensure that only newer packages not present in previous result will be analysed, with new results simply appended to previous results. This parameter can also specify a file to be read with `readRDS()`. * `results_file`: Can be used to specify the name or full path of a `.Rds` file to which results should be saved once they have been generated. The '.Rds' extension will be automatically appended, and any other extensions will be ignored. * `chunk_size`: Divide large archive trawl into chunks of this size, and save intermediate results to local files. These intermediate files can be combined to generate a single `prev_results` file, to enable jobs to be stopped and re-started without having to recalculate all results. These files will be named `pkgstats-results-N.Rds`, where "N" incrementally numbers each file. * `num_cores`: Number of machine cores to use in parallel, defaulting to single-core processing. * `results_path`: Path to save intermediate files generated by the `chunk_size` parameter described above. ## Seealso Other archive: `[dl_pkgstats_data](dl_pkgstats_data)()`, `[pkgstats_cran_current_from_full](pkgstats_cran_current_from_full)()`, `[pkgstats_fns_from_archive](pkgstats_fns_from_archive)()`, `[pkgstats_from_archive](pkgstats_from_archive)()`, `[pkgstats_update](pkgstats_update)()` ## Concept archive ## Value A `data.frame` object with one row for each function in each package and the following columns: * Package name * Package version * Function name
