drake
is superseded. The targets
R package is the long-term successor of drake
, and it is more robust and easier to use. Please visit https://books.ropensci.org/targets/drake.html for full context and advice on transitioning. The counterpart of drakeplanner
in targets
is targetsketch
: https://github.com/wlandau/targetsketch.

workflow and produce a downloadable R script to get your project
started.
