Repo

<p dir="auto"><span><a href="https://github.com/pzhaonet/rmd" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">https://github.com/pzhaonet/rmd <h4>What is the project about? <p dir="auto">Since 'rmarkdown' and 'knitr', more and more members (rticles, bookdown, mindr...) have been joining the R Markdown family. Users can write elegant reproducible documents, manuscripts, dissertations, books, blog posts, posters, and slides within the framework of R markdown. It is exciting, while the installation and maintenance becomes annoying. In the meanwhile, there are plenty of useful RStudio addins, which equip the RStudio IDE as a powerful markdown editor. However, these little tools are often hidden somewhere deep in the community, and it is difficult to dig them out. <p dir="auto">With 'rmd' you can easily explore, install, and load them for both R users and non-users. Furthermore, 'rmd' provides a RStudio addin to explore the R Markdown family and install them with a single click. <p dir="auto">Forget R, and enjoy the wonderful world of R Markdown. <h3>What are the current features? <ul> <li><p dir="auto">Load multiple functions with one command <p dir="auto">When 'rmd' is loaded, multiple useful markdown packages are loaded. Uses can directly write all kinds of documents with them. <pre><code>require('rmd') >> Loading required package: rmd >> -- Attaching packages --------------------------------------------- rmd 0.1.3 -- >> √ rmarkdown 1.11.2 √ tinytex 0.9 >> √ knitr 1.21 √ xaringan 0.8 >> √ bookdown 0.9 √ citr 0.2.0 >> √ blogdown 0.10 √ mindr 1.1.10 >> √ rticles 0.6 √ bookdownplus 1.5.4 <ul> <li><p dir="auto">'rmd' provides four main functions currently. <ul> <li><p dir="auto">rmd_conflicts(): check the conflicts of the functions in 'rmd' and other loaded packages. <li><p dir="auto">rmd_deps(): list all the 'rmd' dependencies. <li><p dir="auto">rmd_packages(): list all packages in 'rmd'. <li><p dir="auto">rmd_update(): check to see if all rmd packages (and optionally, their dependencies) are up-to-date, and will install after an interactive confirmation. <li><p dir="auto">'rmd' provides an RStudio addin. Click the 'Addins' button on the tool bar and find 'R Markdown Family' under 'RMD'. A table of suggested R markdown packages will pop out. A package in a green row has already been installed. Click a row to install or remove the package. <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pzhaonet/rmd/master/inst/media/rmd-addin.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pzhaonet/rmd/master/inst/media/rmd-addin.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pzhaonet/rmd/master/inst/media/rmd-addin.jpg 2x" /> <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pzhaonet/rmd/master/inst/media/rmd-addin-window.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pzhaonet/rmd/master/inst/media/rmd-addin-window.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pzhaonet/rmd/master/inst/media/rmd-addin-window.jpg 2x" /> <h3>List of R markdown family members <p dir="auto">The R markdown family members in the 'rmd' addin can be found <a href="https://github.com/pzhaonet/rmd#list-of-r-markdown-family-members" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">on GitHub.
