Build an html Site from listdown Document Bundles

Description

This function creates an html website with each tab in the page being described by a listdown document bundle.

Usage

ld_build_html_site(
  doc_bundles,
  site_yaml,
  site_dir = tempdir(),
  rmd_dir = file.path(site_dir, "rmarkdown"),
  data_dir = file.path(site_dir, "data"),
  html_dir = file.path(site_dir, "html"),
  render_site = TRUE,
  view = interactive(),
  make_data_dir = TRUE,
  make_rmd_dir = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

doc_bundles	a named list of document bundles. There can be up to one unnamed bundle, which will be assumed to correspond to an index.rmd file.
site_yaml	a list of site information, which will be written to the _site.yml file.
site_dir	the directory where the site (rmd, data, and html files) will be written to.
rmd_dir	the directory where the R Markdown files will reside. By default an "rmarkdown" file is written to 'tempdir()'.
data_dir	the location where data can be found for each bundle. If the data is held in memory for a listdown document bundle, then it will be written to the specified directory. If multiple directories are specified, then the directory is specified per bundle, with index recycling used if the number of directories is not the same as the number of bundles.
html_dir	the location of the rendered document, relative to the directory specified by 'rmd_dir'. Note that this is an rmarkdown convention. By default a directory names "html" is created in the directory specified by 'rmd_dir' and rendered documents are place there.
render_site	should the page be rendered? If not then the 'html_dir' is not created.
view	should the output document be opened after rendering? By default, if 'render_doc' is 'TRUE' and this argument is 'TRUE' then the browser will open for you to examine the output.
make_data_dir	if the 'data_dir' directory is not present, should it be created? This can be set to 'FALSE' when data already resides on disk to verify that it is not being created and written.
make_rmd_dir	if the 'rmd_dir' directory is not present, should it be created? This can be set to 'FALSE' when data already resides on disk to verify that it is not being created and written.
...	argument to be passed to the 'rmarkdown::render_site()' function.

Value

The path to the created website.
