Reorganize repo into package-ready structure with pkgdown + mock data + tests

[Kwan-Jenny]

Goal

Reorganize this repository into a package-ready R structure consistent with UCD-SERG repos (e.g., serocalculator), including:

1. standard R package checks (R CMD check)
2. automated documentation website builds (pkgdown)
3. deployment via GitHub Pages (gh-pages branch)

This PR should include the existing function files already created on this branch and integrate them into a clean package layout.

---

What to include in this PR

1) Standard R package structure

Create/confirm these top-level files and directories (package-root layout):

• DESCRIPTION (package metadata)
• NAMESPACE (generated via roxygen2)
• R/ (already contains the functions from this branch)
• man/ (roxygen output)
• tests/ + tests/testthat/
• vignettes/ (minimal vignette scaffold)
• data/ (will store .rda objects)
• data-raw/ (scripts that generate data/*.rda)
• .Rbuildignore, .gitignore
• README.md (package + website badges, basic usage)

2) pkgdown + GitHub Pages setup

Add pkgdown configuration consistent with UCD-SERG patterns:

• _pkgdown.yml (site config, navbar, reference index)
• GitHub Actions workflow to:
  • build pkgdown site on pushes to main
  • deploy to gh-pages
• Ensure pkgdown site output goes to docs/ or gh-pages (follow serocalculator style)

3) R CMD check CI

Add GitHub Actions workflow for R CMD check on:

• push to PR branches
• pull requests targeting main

Use r-lib/actions best practices (cache packages, matrix with OS if desired).

4) Mock data scaffold (no real Shigella data in this PR)

Because real Shigella .rda and the Excel dataset cannot be committed here:

• Create a data/ folder and commit small mock .rda objects needed to run examples/tests.
• Create a data-raw/ script that generates mock objects and saves them into data/.
• The mock objects should mimic the structure expected by the functions:
  • a mock “posterior draws” object in the same long format (Subject, Iso_type, Chain, Iteration, Parameter, value)
  • a mock “case dataset” object compatible with serodynamics::as_case_data() (id, antigen_iso, time in days, values)
• Add a clear note in README and vignette that real .rda will be uploaded later into data/.

5) Minimal tests + examples using mock data

Add minimal testthat coverage using mock data only:

• Tests should validate:
  • correct output columns + non-empty output
  • basic numeric sanity (finite values, non-negative RMSE, etc.)
  • pointwise vs aggregated summary levels
• Avoid brittle numeric expectations since mock data is random; use set.seed() inside mock-data generation.

6) Documentation consistency

Ensure roxygen documentation exists for exported functions and that devtools::document() produces man/*.Rd.

Export policy:

• keep high-level user-facing functions exported (e.g., compute_residual_metrics, model comparison table, fig2/newperson helpers if user-facing)
• keep low-level helper(s) internal if not intended for users (e.g., predict_posterior_at_times may be internal if preferred)

---

Function files included

This branch already has function files under R/ (e.g., predict_posterior_at_times, compute_residual_metrics, model comparison, newperson parameter prep, etc.). Keep these and ensure they are:

• properly roxygen documented
• included in NAMESPACE
• covered by minimal tests (with mock data)

---

Acceptance criteria

• R CMD check passes locally and in CI
• pkgdown site builds successfully in CI
• GitHub Pages deployment workflow is configured (gh-pages or docs)
• tests run with mock data (no private datasets required)
• repo matches UCD-SERG package-ready conventions

---

Notes

Real Shigella data + .rda objects will be added later to data/ (or kept external if not shareable). This PR focuses on the infrastructure and package readiness while keeping CI green.

Please review the PR description above and follow it to create the appropriate files and folder structure.
Additionally, please revise your earlier review and resolve the issues indicated in the images below, in line with the PR goals.

[Copilot]

@Kwan-Jenny I've opened a new pull request, #12, to work on those changes. Once the pull request is ready, I'll request review from you.

[Kwan-Jenny]

@copilot Now PR #11 (manuscript → main) has 5 failing CI checks. Please fix all of them:

---

1. Version increment check (CRITICAL — do this first)

PR branch version (0.0.0.9004) equals main branch version (0.0.0.9004). The CI requires the PR version to be higher.

Fix: In DESCRIPTION, bump the Version to 0.0.0.9005.

---

2. R-CMD-check: 3 WARNINGs

A. Invalid license file pointers: LICENSE

DESCRIPTION references a LICENSE file that doesn't exist.

Fix: Either:

• Create a LICENSE file in the repo root matching whatever license is declared in DESCRIPTION (e.g., if License: MIT + file LICENSE, create a LICENSE file with the MIT text and the copyright holder name), OR
• Change the License field in DESCRIPTION to one that doesn't require a file (e.g., License: MIT + file LICENSE needs the file; License: GPL-3 does not).

B. Non-ASCII characters in R/fmt_mci.R

R packages must use only ASCII in R code files (not in comments).

Fix: Open R/fmt_mci.R and find non-ASCII characters (likely special symbols like ±, ×, ≤, em-dashes, or curly quotes). Replace them with ASCII equivalents or use \uXXXX escape sequences. Run tools::showNonASCIIfile("R/fmt_mci.R") to find them.

C. Vignettes: no VignetteBuilder field

There is vignettes/getting-started.Rmd but DESCRIPTION has no VignetteBuilder field.

Fix: Add to DESCRIPTION:

VignetteBuilder: knitr

Also make sure knitr and rmarkdown are in Suggests:

Suggests:
    knitr,
    rmarkdown,
    ...

And ensure getting-started.Rmd has a proper vignette header:

---
title: "Getting Started with shigella"
output: rmarkdown::html_vignette
vignette: >
  %\VignetteIndexEntry{Getting Started with shigella}
  %\VignetteEngine{knitr::rmarkdown}
  %\VignetteEncoding{UTF-8}
---

---

3. R-CMD-check: 2 NOTEs

Unused Imports: future, future.apply, gridExtra, serodynamics

These packages are declared in Imports but never actually imported via @importFrom or import() in any R file.

Fix: Move future, future.apply, and gridExtra from Imports to Suggests in DESCRIPTION (they are likely only used in vignettes or scripts, not in exported functions). For serodynamics, since the ::: calls were replaced with internal functions, it's no longer needed in Imports either — move it to Suggests as well (it's still needed for Remotes installation but not as a runtime Import).

---

4. Spellcheck: 16 "misspelled" words

These are all domain-specific terms (IgA, IgG, SOSAR, MFI, isotype, serotype, tibble, ggplot, newperson, etc.) that are correct but not in the default dictionary.

Fix: Run spelling::update_wordlist() to add them to inst/WORDLIST, then commit the updated file. If inst/WORDLIST doesn't exist, create it with these words (one per line, sorted alphabetically):

df
ggplot
IgA
IgG
ipab
Iso
isotype
Isotype
isotypes
MFI
newperson
pre
serodynamics
serotype
SOSAR
tibble

---

5. lint-changed-files: 3 line length violations

• R/fmt_mci.R line 14: 101 characters
• R/prep_newperson_params.R line 17: 82 characters
• R/prep_newperson_params.R line 18: 108 characters

Fix: Break these lines to be ≤ 80 characters.

@copilot

Please address the review comments as follows:

1. Accept — compute_residual_metrics.R line 86: Fix the rename()
   call to use !!rlang::sym() instead of {{ }} since time_var
   and value_var are character strings, not symbols.

2. Verify first — compute_residual_metrics.R line 83: Check whether
   serocalculator exports get_values_var() (plural) or
   get_value_var() (singular). Use whichever is actually exported.
   Check with: ls("package:serocalculator", pattern = "get_value").

3. Accept — test-utils_internal.R: Internal functions ab() and
   get_timeindays_var() are not exported, so tests must use
   shigella:::ab() and shigella:::get_timeindays_var() to work
   during R CMD check.

4. Check first — test-predict_posterior_at_times.R: Check if
   predict_posterior_at_times() has an @export tag in its roxygen
   docs. If yes, this comment can be dismissed. If no, either add
   @export (since it's a user-facing function) or use shigella:::
   in the test.

5. Accept — utils_internal.R bt(): Handle t1 = 0 edge case.
   When t1 == 0, return y1 directly (instant peak) instead of
   computing log(y1/y0) / 0 which produces NaN.

6. Defer — model_comparison_table.R: The empty ids_common guard
   is a good suggestion but out of scope for this PR. Add a TODO
   comment instead: # TODO: add early error for empty ids_common.

After fixes, run devtools::document() to keep NAMESPACE in sync.

[Copilot]

@copilot

Please address the review comments as follows:
...

All changes made in commit 190c42f:

1. rename() fix — changed to !!rlang::sym(time_var) / !!rlang::sym(value_var) in compute_residual_metrics.R:86-89.
2. get_values_var() verified — confirmed serocalculator::get_values_var() (plural) is exported and returns the single column name; current usage is correct.
3. Internal function tests — test-utils_internal.R now uses shigella:::ab() and shigella:::get_timeindays_var() throughout.
4. predict_posterior_at_times tests — updated to shigella:::predict_posterior_at_times() since it has @keywords internal and is not exported.
5. t1 = 0 edge case — bt() now returns 0 when t1 == 0, and ab() short-circuits to return y1 for the instant-peak case (t ≤ 0), then applies the decay formula for t > 0.
6. TODO comment added — # TODO: add early error for empty ids_common placed after ids_common is computed in make_model_comparison_table().

@copilot

The ab() function in R/utils_internal.R must exactly match the original from serodynamics. Please replace the current ab() and bt() implementations with the exact code from the upstream packages. Do NOT add any edge case handling or modifications.

1. Replace bt() with exact copy from serocalculator

Source: https://github.com/UCD-SERG/serocalculator/blob/main/R/bt.R

bt <- function(y0, y1, t1) {
  to_return <- log(y1 / y0) / t1
  return(to_return)
}

No t1 == 0 handling. The original doesn't have it, so we don't add it.

2. Replace ab() with exact copy from serodynamics

Source: https://github.com/ucdavis/serodynamics/blob/main/R/ab.R

ab <- function(t, y0, y1, t1, alpha, shape) {
  beta <- bt(y0, y1, t1)
  yt <- ifelse(
    t <= t1,
    y0 * exp(beta * t),
    (y1^(1 - shape) - (1 - shape) * alpha * (t - t1))^(1 / (1 - shape))
  )
  return(yt)
}

This is already vectorized (uses ifelse(), not if()), so it will work correctly inside dplyr::mutate().

3. Keep the roxygen comments and source reference

Keep the @keywords internal and @noRd tags, and the comment noting these are mirrors of the upstream functions.

4. Update the t1 = 0 edge case test

In tests/testthat/test-utils_internal.R, the test "ab() does not error when t1 = 0" should be updated. The original bt() produces Inf when t1 = 0, which causes ab() to return NaN. This is the expected behavior of the original function. Change the test to:

test_that("ab() handles t1 = 0 same as upstream", {
  # When t1 = 0, bt() returns Inf, which is expected
  # upstream behavior. We don't add special handling.
  result <- shigella:::ab(
    t = c(0, 10, 30),
    y0 = 200, y1 = 2000, t1 = 0,
    alpha = 0.02, shape = 1.2
  )
  expect_length(result, 3)
  # Results may be NaN/Inf — that's OK, matches upstream
})

5. Principle

Our internal ab() and bt() must be exact copies of the originals, not "improved" versions. If the originals have edge case issues, we match that behavior exactly. Any improvements should be made upstream in serodynamics/serocalculator, not here.

6. Audit: find any other duplicated functions

After fixing ab() and bt(), please do the following audit:

1. List every function defined in R/ files in this PR (including utils_internal.R and all other .R files).
2. For each function, check whether a function with the same name or identical purpose already exists in:
   • ucdavis/serodynamics R/ directory: https://github.com/ucdavis/serodynamics/tree/main/R
   • UCD-SERG/serocalculator R/ directory: https://github.com/UCD-SERG/serocalculator/tree/main/R
3. If a match is found, report it in a comment with:
   • The function name in our repo
   • The matching file in serodynamics or serocalculator
   • Whether our version is identical, slightly different, or substantially different
4. For functions that are identical or near-identical to upstream versions: consider whether we should replace our internal copy with a proper import (e.g., serodynamics::function_name() or serocalculator::function_name()) instead of maintaining a duplicate. Only keep internal copies when the upstream function is not exported (i.e., we'd need :::).

Goal: Minimize duplicated code between shigella and its upstream dependencies. Duplicates lead to silent divergence and bugs — exactly what happened with ab().

After all changes, run devtools::document() and commit.

These are all valid suggestions. Defensive checks and additional test coverage for exported functions (fmt_mci, prep_newperson_params, fig2_overall_newperson, make_model_comparison_table) will be addressed in a follow-up issue after this infrastructure PR is merged.
