liftr 0.9.2 (2019-06-18)

Bug Fixes

• Switched to absolute URLs for the contributing guidelines and contributor code of conduct in the readme.

liftr 0.9.1 (2019-06-18)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed the issue of parsing Bioconductor package names (#45) for R >= 3.5 and the introduction of BiocManager. We thank Tiago Lubiana for contributing the patch.

liftr 0.9 (2018-05-13)

Improvements

• Added a new argument dry_run in render_docker() for debugging: when set to TRUE, it will only return the Docker commands and not actually run them.
• New URL for the documentation website: https://nanx.me/liftr/.

liftr 0.8 (2017-12-12)

New Features

• Added a new argument prune in render_docker() to automatically clean up dangling containers and images in case the image build or compilation was not successful (#27). We thank Nicolas Roelandt for suggesting this feature (#25).
• Added functions prune_container_auto(), prune_image_auto(), and prune_all_auto() for automatic pruning of dangling containers or images without particular names specified.
• Added function install_docker() for guiding the installation of Docker.
• Added function check_docker_install()for checking if Docker is properly installed and discoverable.
• Added function check_docker_running() for checking if Docker daemon is running.

Improvements

• The argument purge_info was renamed to prune_info in render_docker().
• Previous functions for cleaning up specific Docker containers and images purge_container() and purge_image() are now renamed to prune_container() and prune_image().
• RStudio addin: the old addin for removing Docker images was refactored into two new addins: one for removing dangling containers and images, one for removing the successfully built image that corresponds to the current document.
• Added two new vignettes. Check out vignette("liftr-addins") and vignette("liftr-tidyverse").

liftr 0.7 (2017-09-29)

Improvements

• Use system font stack instead of Google Fonts in vignettes to avoid pandoc SSL issue.

liftr 0.6 (2017-07-23)

New Features

• Supports parsing the liftr metadata from a standalone YAML congfiguration file. This feature makes it possible to run liftr without editing the original R Markdown file [#22].

liftr 0.5 (2017-04-11)

New Features

• Added RStudio addins as shortcuts to containerize and render R Markdown documents.
• Added new argument cache in render_docker() to improve rendering speed significantly by caching Docker image layers [#18].
• Added new argument purge_info to render_docker(). This argument controls whether to output the Docker image and container name into an YAML file for purging purposes later.
• Separate the creation and removal of Docker containers and images: removed the old argument reset in render_docker(); added purge_container() and purge_image() for cleaning up.
• The ghpkg field is now deprecated. The new remotes field supports devtools remote package name format. Now packages can be installed from GitHub, Bitbucket, Git/SVN servers, URLs, etc.
• Added new metadata field include for including any custom Dockerfile snippets into the final Dockerfile. This also fixes #21.

Improvements

• Renamed drender() to render_docker(). drender() is now deprecated.
• Better naming scheme for liftr metadata fields.
• Tidy up the output Dockerfile by lift().
• Added two new examples in inst/examples/: explore tidyverse and Bioconductor RNA-Seq workflow.
• New documentation website generated by pkgdown, with a full set of function documentation and vignettes available.
• Added Appveyor support for continuous integration under Windows.
• Removed Rabix support temporarily to embrace its new version in the future.
• Added a new demo video.

Bug Fixes

• Removed -t and -i from docker run to fix #17.

liftr 0.4 (2016-08-05)

Improvements

• Maintainer email updates.

liftr 0.3 (2015-10-10)

New Features

• Support specifying CRAN package version precisely.

Improvements

• Modified examples in documentation to comply with the lastest CRAN Repository Policy.
• Installing packages with https.

liftr 0.2 (2015-07-30)

Bug Fixes

• Correctly rendered the vignette with Pandoc 1.15.0.6.

New Features

• Added new R Markdown header option pandoc to control Pandoc installation. Automatically set this to false for rocker/rstudio and bioconductor/... images. This solves #12.

liftr 0.1 (2015-07-10)

New Features

• Initial version of liftr. This version implemented two functions lift() and drender(). They provide basic support for dockerizing R Markdown documents, with support for running Rabix workflows/tools before rendering R Markdown documents in Docker containers.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
