An R package to run you R code in different R implementations and platforms in Docker containers.

Installation

You can install the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("ismailsunni/altRnative")

Documentation

Documentation is created with roxygen2 and the website with pkgdown. Render both with the following commands:

roxygen2::roxygenise(roclets = c('rd', 'collate', 'namespace', 'vignette'))
pkgdown::build_site()

The file README.md is generated from README.Rmd. A pre-commit hook added with usethis should be configured to make sure the Markdown file is always up to date with the R Markdown file. Add the following to a file .git/hooks/pre-commit:

#!/bin/bash
README=($(git diff --cached --name-only | grep -Ei '^README\.[R]?md$'))
MSG="use 'git commit --no-verify' to override this check"

if [[ ${#README[@]} == 0 ]]; then
  exit 0
fi

if [[ README.Rmd -nt README.md ]]; then
  echo -e "README.md is out of date; please re-knit README.Rmd\n$MSG"
  exit 1
elif [[ ${#README[@]} -lt 2 ]]; then
  echo -e "README.Rmd and README.md should be both staged\n$MSG"
  exit 1
fi
