Preview Markdown and R Markdown files

Description

Launch a web page to list and preview files under a directory.

Usage

roam(dir = ".", live = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

dir

A directory path.

live

Whether to enable live preview. If enabled, the browser page will be automatically updated upon modification of local files used by the page (e.g., the Markdown file or external CSS/JS/image files). If disabled, you can manually refresh the page to fully re-render it.

...

Other arguments to be passed to xfun::new_app().

Details

Markdown files will be converted to HTML and returned to the web browser directly without writing to HTML files, to keep the directory clean during the preview. Clicking on a filename will bring up an HTML preview. To see its raw content, click on the link on its file size instead.

Value

A URL (invisibly) for the preview.
