error with assertive.types::assert_is_string()

[Former user]

Hello, I am getting an error when trying to use assert_is_a_string when the object is not a string. Using 0.0-8 of assertive.base and 0.0-3 of assertive.types.

> assertive.types::assert_is_a_string(1) 
Error in ass_condition(paste(predicate_name, msg, sep = " : "), caller,  : 
  object 'aer' not found
> traceback()
5: ass_condition(paste(predicate_name, msg, sep = " : "), caller, 
       predicate_name)
4: handler(ass_condition(paste(predicate_name, msg, sep = " : "), 
       caller, predicate_name))
3: give_feedback(handler_type, msg, predicate_name)
2: assert_engine(is_a_string, x, .xname = get_name_in_parent(x), 
       severity = severity)
1: assertive.types::assert_is_a_string(1)

I am guessing this is a new issue from the CRAN release of assertive.base 0.0-8?

Thanks, Kathryn

I’m pretty sure this is due to an extra “r” in “aer” on this line, although I haven’t tested: https://bitbucket.org/richierocks/assertive.base/src/f6451fa9c396c6e12c7cede36e541c7336c47ff9/R/conditions.R#lines-37
