This function automatically selects the right function (texreg,
screenreg, htmlreg, or matrixreg) with the right set of
arguments for use with the knitr package, for example in RStudio. The
advantage of using this function with knitr is that the user does not
need to replace the texreg, htmlreg etc. function call in the
document when a different output format is selected.
knitreg works with...
R HTML documents (.Rhtml extension)
R Sweave documents (.Rnw extension) for PDF output via LaTeX,
rendered using...
the knitr package
the Sweave package
R Markdown documents (.Rmd extension), rendered as...
R Notebooks, including preview
If Markdown and HTML rendering are selected, htmlreg arguments
doctype = FALSE and star.symbol = "\*" are set to enable
compatibility with Markdown. With R HTML documents (but not Markdown) or
presentations (.Rpres extension), only doctype = FALSE is set.
For PDF/LaTeX documents, the texreg argument
use.packages = FALSE is set to suppress any package loading
instructions in the preamble. The user must load any packages manually in the
preamble of the document.
The knitr and rmarkdown packages must be installed for this
function to work.
