docker_alias {docknitr}

Create an alias for a Docker R markdown engine

Description

Create an alias for a Docker R markdown engine

Usage

docker_alias(name, ...)

Arguments

name

The name of a new Docker R markdown engine

...

Options for the new Docker R markdown engine

Details

For example, after writing

docker_alias("ubuntu", image="ubuntu:latest", command="bash")

you can use ‘⁠```{ubuntu}⁠’ instead of ‘⁠```{r engine="docker", image="ubuntu:latest", command="bash"}⁠’ to process R markdown chunks through Ubuntu bash using Docker

The alias name must consist entirely of letters, digits, and underscores, or else 'knitr' will not recognize it as a valid code chunk in R markdown.

Examples

docker_alias("ubuntu", image="ubuntu:latest", command="bash")
