post_new_article: Post a markdown file to dev.to

In DaveParr/dev.to.ol: dev.to.ol

Description

Create a new post from an .Rmd.

Usage

post_new_article(file, key = NA)

Arguments

file	The path to the file
key	Your API key, Default: NA

Details

Will look for an api key in the '.REnviron' file. Seems to check if the body is identical to a previous article and error if so with '"Body markdown has already been taken"'. The following YAML arguments are read from the file YAML frontmatter if present:

title

A character string

series

A character string

published

A boolean

tags

list of character strings: ["tag1", "tag2"]

dev.to will not allow tags with spaces, so tags with spaces will be automatically collapsed.

The default table output method renders a very large print code block. The workaround is to use kable.

Value

The response
