Modifying sentimentr (R package) data dictionaries

I am using sentiment analysis function sentiment_by() from R package sentimentr (by trinker). Would like to understand how to modify the negators, amplifiers, de-amplifiers. I could update the polarity table & valence shifters.

Would like to tinker around the dictionaries to make it suit for my domain. For ex "A frustrating experience - not cool to pay that much per month for a bad app like that. Unprofessional" is yielding me an ave.sentiment of 0. So I am trying to understand the dictionary and weights a little more

Also would like to understand if there are any specific text clean up utility to run before passing it to the sentiment_by() function (like in qdap ). There isn't much documentation available on these aspects for sentimentr package. Any help is appreciated
