    "dev_history"),

  overwrite = FALSE,
  open = TRUE
)

Arguments

pkg: Path where to save file
dev_dir: Name of directory for development Rmarkdown files. Default to "dev".
flat_name: Name of the file to write in dev. Use the name of the main function of your template to get chunks pre-filled with this function name.
overwrite: Whether to overwrite existing flat Rmd template file with same name
open: Logical. Whether to open file after creation
template: Name of the template to use. See details.

Value

Create flat Rmd file(s) template(s) and return its (their) path

Details

Choose template among the different templates available:

"full": The full template with a reproducible package that can directly be inflated. It comes along with the "dev_history" template. Default.
"minimal_package": Minimal template to start a new package when you already know fusen, along with the "dev_history" template. Note that this is called "minimal" in create_fusen().
"minimal_flat" or "additional": Template for a new minimal flat file only.
"teaching": Template with a reproducible package, simpler than "full", but everything to teach the minimal structure of a package.
"dev_history": Template with functions commonly used during package development. This does not contain chunks to write your own functions.

Abbreviated names can also be used for the different templates: "add" for additional, "minflat" for minimal_flat, "minpkg" for minimal_package "teach" for teaching, "dev" for "dev_history".

add_additional(), add_minimal_flat(), add_dev_history(), add_minimal_package(), add_full() are wrapper around add_flat_template("additional"), ...

Examples

# Create a new project
dummypackage <- tempfile("dummy.package.flat")
dir.create(dummypackage)

# Add
add_flat_template(template = "teaching", pkg = dummypackage)
#> Created file .here in /tmp/Rtmp0PDCZ2/dummy.package.flat16f12b844262 . Please start a new R session in the new project directory.
#> [1] "/tmp/Rtmp0PDCZ2/dummy.package.flat16f12b844262/dev/flat_teaching.Rmd"
# Delete dummy package
unlink(dummypackage, recursive = TRUE)

# For classical use in your package
if (FALSE) {
# first time ever using 'fusen'
add_flat_template("full")

# first time in your new package
add_flat_template("minimal_package")

# add new flat file for new functions
add_flat_template("add")
add_additional()
add_minimal_flat()

# add only the dev_history file in an existing package
add_dev_history()

# add new flat template for teaching (a reduced full template)
add_flat_template("teaching")
