In shiny2docker: Generate Dockerfiles for 'Shiny' Applications

Configure GitLab CI pipeline for Docker builds

Description

Copies the .gitlab-ci.yml file provided by the shiny2docker package into the specified directory. The GitLab CI configuration is designed to build a Docker image and push the created image to the GitLab container registry.

Usage

set_gitlab_ci(path, tags = NULL)

Arguments

path	A character string specifying the directory where the .gitlab-ci.yml file will be copied. If missing, the user will be prompted to use the current directory.
tags	Optional character vector of GitLab runner tags. If provided, the function will add these tags to the generated CI job so the appropriate runner is selected. You can provide multiple tags.

Value

A logical value indicating whether the file was successfully copied (TRUE) or not (FALSE).

Examples

# Copy the .gitlab-ci.yml file to a temporary directory
set_gitlab_ci(path = tempdir())

# Copy the file and specify runner tags
set_gitlab_ci(path = tempdir(), tags = c("shiny_build", "prod"))
