Neal Richardson created ARROW-6258:
--------------------------------------
Summary: [R] Add macOS build scripts
Key: ARROW-6258
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6258
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: R
Reporter: Neal Richardson
Assignee: Neal Richardson
CRAN builds binary packages for Windows and macOS. It generally does this by
building on its servers and bundling all dependencies in the R package. This
has been accomplished by having separate processes for building and hosting
system dependencies, and then downloading and bundling those with scripts that
get executed at install time (and then create the binary package as a side
effect).
ARROW-3758 added the Windows PKGBUILD and related packaging scripts and ran
them on our Appveyor. This ticket is to do the same for the macOS scripts.
The purpose of these tickets is to bring the whole build pipeline under our
version control and CI so that we can address any C++ build and dependency
changes as they arise and not be surprised when it comes time to cut a release.
A side benefit is that they also enable us to offer a nightly binary package
repository with minimal additional effort.
