write_dockerfileR: Convert the output from 'sessioninfo::package_info()' into...

In setgree/PrejMetaFunctions: Some functions John-Henry Pezzuto and I wrote for a forthcoming meta-analysis

Convert the output from sessioninfo::package_info() into the contents of a Dockerfile

Description

Convert the output from sessioninfo::package_info() into the contents of a Dockerfile

Usage

write_dockerfileR(
  write_file = TRUE,
  org = "rocker",
  image = "r-base:latest",
  apt_packages = TRUE,
  dir = "./",
  filename = "Dockerfile"
)

Arguments

write_file	Defaults to TRUE, which will write a dockerfile. Else, output will be written to console (or whatever connection is open). console (or whatever connection you have open). The dockerfile's name will combine the dir and filename parameterss: by default, './Dockerfile'. Writing a file will overwrite any Dockerfile in the same location. 'TRUE' is probably appropriate for exporting to a tool like mybinder.org; 'FALSE ' is appropriate if you already have a Dockerfile and you prefer to paste sections from this function into it.
org	Defaults to Rocker (https://www.rocker-project.org/); another option is Docker's official R images (https://hub.docker.com/_/r-base). For more on Rocker, see https://arxiv.org/abs/1710.03675.
image	Defaults to r-base:latest, whose source code is on Rocker's GitHub: https://github.com/rocker-org/rocker/blob/master/r-base/latest/Dockerfile. available tags for r-base are listed here: https://hub.docker.com/r/rocker/r-base/tags.
apt_packages	should standard needed apt packages be installed? Defaults to true and installs libcurl4-openssl-dev, libssl-dev, and libxml2-dev. Other Rocker images can be browsed here: https://hub.docker.com/u/rocker.
dir	Defaults to current directory, './'.
filename	Defaults to 'Dockerfile', making the composite file './Dockerfile'.
