Im trying to create a vignette using the following command from Hadley Wickham's R-package book:
devtools::use_vignette("my_package")
But get the following error:
Error: 'my_package' is not an exported object from 'namespace:devtools'

Do you have a line in your DESCRIPTION specifying `BuildVignettes: true`? – nya Dec 25 '19 at 14:21

No. But I tried to add it, but still receive the same error. – Oscar Kjell Dec 25 '19 at 14:32

You are looking at the old version of the book at http://r-pkgs.had.co.nz/vignettes.html.
Check out the newer version at https://r-pkgs.org/vignettes.html:
To create your first vignette, run:
usethis::use_vignette("my-vignette")
In newer versions of devtools, it relies on usethis for functions like use_vignette().
