R Markdown format for Distill articles

Description

Scientific and technical writing, native to the web.

Usage

distill_article(
  toc = FALSE,
  toc_depth = 3,
  toc_float = TRUE,
  fig_width = 6.5,
  fig_height = 4,
  fig_retina = 2,
  fig_caption = TRUE,
  dev = "png",
  smart = TRUE,
  code_folding = FALSE,
  self_contained = TRUE,
  highlight = "default",
  highlight_downlit = TRUE,
  mathjax = "default",
  extra_dependencies = NULL,
  theme = NULL,
  css = NULL,
  includes = NULL,
  keep_md = FALSE,
  lib_dir = NULL,
  md_extensions = NULL,
  pandoc_args = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

toc

TRUE to include a table of contents in the output

toc_depth

Depth of headers to include in table of contents

toc_float

Float the table of contents to the left when the article is displayed at widths > 1000px. If set to FALSE or the width is less than 1000px the table of contents will be placed above the article body.

fig_width

Default width (in inches) for figures

fig_height

Default height (in inches) for figures

fig_retina

Scaling to perform for retina displays (defaults to 2, which currently works for all widely used retina displays). Set to NULL to prevent retina scaling. Note that this will always be NULL when keep_md is specified (this is because fig_retina relies on outputting HTML directly into the markdown document).

fig_caption

TRUE to render figures with captions

dev

Graphics device to use for figure output (defaults to png)

smart

Produce typographically correct output, converting straight quotes to curly quotes, ⁠---⁠ to em-dashes, ⁠--⁠ to en-dashes, and ... to ellipses.

code_folding

Include code blocks hidden, and allow users to optionally display the code by clicking a "Show code" button just above the output. Pass a character vector to customize the text of the "Show code" button. You can also specify code_folding as chunk option for per-chunk folding behavior.

self_contained

Produce a standalone HTML file with no external dependencies, using data: URIs to incorporate the contents of linked scripts, stylesheets, images, and videos. Note that even for self contained documents MathJax is still loaded externally (this is necessary because of its size).

highlight

Syntax highlighting style. Supported styles include "default", "rstudio", "tango", "pygments", "kate", "monochrome", "espresso", "zenburn", "breezedark", and "haddock". Pass NULL to prevent syntax highlighting.

highlight_downlit

Use the downlit package to highlight R code (including providing hyperlinks to function documentation).

mathjax

Include mathjax. The "default" option uses an https URL from a MathJax CDN. The "local" option uses a local version of MathJax (which is copied into the output directory). You can pass an alternate URL or pass NULL to exclude MathJax entirely.

extra_dependencies

Extra dependencies as a list of the html_dependency class objects typically generated by htmltools:htmlDependency().

theme

CSS file with theme variable definitions

css

CSS and/or Sass files to include. Files with an extension of .sass or .scss are compiled to CSS via sass::sass().

includes

Named list of additional content to include within the document (typically created using the includes function).

keep_md

Keep the markdown file generated by knitting.

lib_dir

Directory to copy dependent HTML libraries (e.g. jquery, bootstrap, etc.) into. By default this will be the name of the document with _files appended to it.

md_extensions

Markdown extensions to be added or removed from the default definition of R Markdown. See the rmarkdown_format for additional details.

pandoc_args

Additional command line options to pass to pandoc

...

Additional function arguments to pass to the base R Markdown HTML output formatter html_document_base

Details

Distill articles feature attractive, reader-friendly typography, flexible layout options for visualizations, and full support for footnotes and citations.
