Move Imports to Suggests to reduce dependencies

jangorecki opened this issue · comments

A suggestion to move some Imports to Suggests. Imports are the deps which are required to installed to install statar, so it wise to make it short. If I want to use only few functions from your package it is quite big overhead. Maybe some of non-core processing related deps can be moved from Imports to Suggests? I'm not up to date with latest CRAN policies but it may only require to wrap their body into if(require(.

You're right. I've just removed lubridate, felm, stringdist, so that's better now.
