rtemps

My personal favourite R templates for doing reproducible data analyses.

Available Themes

• United HTML Document: a bootstrap-based single R Markdown document

• Bookdown Lite: a single-paged bookdown-based document

Install

From CRAN:

install.packages("rtemps")

Note that the package imports among others the libraries DT, ggplot2 and xfun.

Usage

Once the templates are installed, you can use them in 2 ways:

1. Within the templates in RStudio (highly advised - easiest way):

• File > New File > R Markdown... > From Template (United HTML Theme)
• File > New Project... > New Directory > Bookdown Lite project (Bookdown Lite Theme)

2. By calling the create_rtemp() function which allows you to create a new directory with all the template files inside, ready to be used/rendered.

Notes

United HTML Theme

• To create and render the template from an R session, run:

rtemps::create_rtemp(dirname = "new-dir", template = "united_html")
rmarkdown::render(input = "new-dir/index.Rmd", output_format = "html_document", output_dir = "new-dir")

Bookdown Lite Theme

• To create and render the template from the command line, run:

Rscript -e "rtemps::create_rtemp(dirname = 'new-dir', template = 'bookdown_lite')"
cd new-dir
./_build.sh

• The output of the Bookdown Lite theme is placed under a docs directory, so that it can easily be rendered with GitHub Pages.
• The Bookdown Lite can be easily converted to a multi-paged document by configuring the split_by property in the _output.yml template file (check the doc).

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.
