Travis CI for R packages: no deploy key found

I try to set up a R Package with a pkgdown website, which I want to connect to Travis CI. I'm new to Travis and I don't have any clue why it still fails with the error massage

Deploying application
Error: No deploy key found, please setup with `travis::use_travis_deploy()`
Execution halted
Script failed with status 1
failed to deploy

Executing the call travis::use_travis_deploy() within RStudio returns 

> travis::use_travis_deploy()
i Querying Github deploy keys from repo.
i Getting environment variables for `j3ypi/inductive` on Travis CI.
> Deploy keys for Travis CI (`.org`) already present. No action required.

indicating that everything is as it's supposed to be. When Travis CI sets the environment variables it even says

Setting environment variables from repository settings
$ export TRAVIS_DEPLOY_KEY=[secure]
$ export GITHUB_PAT=[secure]

For the .travis.yml file I oriented towards the one of the dplyr package. It looks like this

# R for travis: see documentation at https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/r

language: r
os: linux
dist: trusty
cache: packages
latex: false

jobs:
  include:
    before_cache: Rscript -e 'remotes::install_cran("pkgdown")'
    deploy:
      provider: script
      script: Rscript -e 'pkgdown::deploy_site_github()'
      skip_cleanup: true
      github-token: $GITHUB_PAT

env:
  global:
  - _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_=false
  - MAKEFLAGS="-j 2"
  - TRAVIS_CXXFLAGS="-Wall -Wextra -pedantic -Werror"
  - R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS=true
  - _R_CHECK_SYSTEM_CLOCK_=FALSE

Does anyone have an idea? Weirdly enough, the deploy key on Github says it's never been used. The GITHUB_PAT, R_TRAVIS and R_TRAVIS_ORG variables are specified within the .Renviron. The R CMD check passed locally without any errors or warnings.

Solution

  • I still have no idea why the code I used failed, since it works for so many packages from the tidyverse. But I got it running eventually.

    Just use tic::use_tic() from the tic package, which will setup your .travis.yml file properly. The .travis.yml file will look similar to this:

    # tic documentation: https://docs.ropensci.org/tic/dev/
