- Replace jvm regex replacement script with mvn command.
- Replace cmake script for python version with python script.
- Automate rest of the manual steps.
The script can handle dev branch, rc release, and formal release version.
* [R] Use new interface for creating DMatrix from CSR.
- CSC is still using the old API.
The old API is not aware of `nthread` parameter, which makes DMatrix to use all available
thread during construction and during transformation lie `SparsePage` -> `CSCPage`.
- Use the standard package check (check on the tarball instead of the source tree).
- Run commands in parallel.
- Cleanup dependencies installation.
- Replace makefile.
- Documentation.
- Test using the image from rhub.
* [Python] Require black and isort for new Python files.
- Require black and isort for spark and dask module.
These files are relatively new and are more conform to the black formatter. We will
convert the rest of the library as we move forward.
Other libraries including dask/distributed and optuna use the same formatting style and
have a more strict standard. The black formatter is indeed quite nice, automating it can
help us unify the code style.
- Gather Python checks into a single script.
* [CI] Move lint to a separate script
* [CI] Improved lintr launcher
* Add lintr as a separate action
* Add custom parsing logic to print out logs
* Fix lintr issues in demos
* Run R demos
* Fix CRAN checks
* Install XGBoost into R env before running lintr
* Install devtools (needed to run demos)
