Write package descriptions and a repository index as HTML

Description

This function generates an HTML file for each package in a repository and generates an index.html file that provides an alphabetized listing of the packages.

Usage

writeRepositoryHtml(reposRoot, title, reposUrl = "..", viewUrl = "../..",
                    reposFullUrl=reposUrl, downloadStatsUrl="",
                    devHistoryUrl="", link.rel = TRUE,
                    backgroundColor="transparent")

Arguments

reposRoot	string specifying the path to the root of the CRAN-style package repository.
title	string giving the title for the repository
reposUrl	string giving the prefix for URL in links generated on the package description pages. The default is "..." which works well if the package description HTML files are written to an html subdirectory under the root of the repository.
viewUrl	string giving the prefix for the URL in links to the view pages. The biocViews terms will be linked to views summary pages with this prefix.
reposFullUrl	string giving the full prefix for URL in links generated on the package description pages. The default is reposUrl.
downloadStatsUrl	string giving the prefix for the URL in links to the download history statistics pages.
devHistoryUrl	string giving the prefix for the URL in links to the development changelog.
link.rel	logical indicating whether the index page should generate relative URL links. The default is TRUE. If you are generating HTML for a remote repository, you will want to set this to FALSE.
backgroundColor	A character vector giving the background color for the body in the CSS file.
