renv_lockfile_from_manifest: Generate 'renv.lock' from an RStudio Connect 'manifest.json'

In renv: Project Environments

Generate renv.lock from an RStudio Connect manifest.json

Description

Use renv_lockfile_from_manifest() to convert a manifest.json file from an RStudio Connect content bundle into an renv.lock lockfile.

This function can be useful when you need to recreate the package environment of a piece of content that is deployed to RStudio Connect. The content bundle contains a manifest.json file that is used to recreate the package environment. This function will let you convert that manifest file to an renv.lock file. Run renv::restore() after you've converted the file to restore the package environment.

Usage

renv_lockfile_from_manifest(
  manifest = "manifest.json",
  lockfile = NA,
  project = NULL
)

Arguments

manifest	The path to a manifest.json file.
lockfile	The path to the lockfile to be generated and / or updated. When NA (the default), the generated lockfile is returned as an R object; otherwise, the lockfile will be written to the path specified by lockfile.

Value

An renv lockfile.
