devtools (version 1.1)

build_vignettes: Build package vignettes.

Description

Builds package vignettes using the same algorithm that R CMD build does. This means including non-Sweave vignettes, using makefiles (if present), and copying over extra files. You need to ensure that these files are not included in the built package - ideally they should not be checked into source, or at least excluded with .Rbuildignore

Usage

build_vignettes(pkg = ".", dependencies = "VignetteBuilder")

Arguments

pkg

package description, can be path or package name. See as.package for more information

dependencies

logical indicating to also install uninstalled packages which this pkg depends on/links to/suggests. See argument dependencies of install.packages.
