  prompt = TRUE
)
orderly_use_source(

Arguments

resources, sources

Character vector of resources or sources to add. These must be filenames relative to the report directory, must exist, and must not already be present in the orderly.yml

name

Name of the report to modify. Like orderly_develop_start() this can be NULL if you have already set the working directory to be the source directory.

root

The path to an orderly root directory, or NULL (the default) to search for one from the current working directory if locate is TRUE.

locate

Logical, indicating if the configuration should be searched for. If TRUE and config is not given, then orderly looks in the working directory and up through its parents until it finds an orderly_config.yml file.

show

Logical, indicating if we should print the proposed changes to screen

edit

Logical, indicating if we should actually edit the orderly.yml file.

prompt

Logical, indicating if we should prompt before editing the orderly.yml file. Only has an effect if edit is TRUE.

packages

Character vector of package names to add. These must not already exist in the orderly.yml

Value

Invisibly, this function returns information about the file it would edit. This information is primarily for debugging purposes and the format is subject to change.

Details

The orderly_use_gitignore configures a basic .gitignore file at the root of your orderly project that will prevent files from being added to git. This is only really useful if you are using (or will use) git, but it is harmless at worst.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
path <- orderly::orderly_example("minimal")

# Suppose we wanted to use the mtcars data within our report.
# First, the file must exist:
write.csv(mtcars, file.path(path, "src", "example", "mtcars.csv"),
          row.names = FALSE)

# Preview expected changes
orderly::orderly_use_resource("mtcars.csv", "example", path, edit = FALSE)

# Modify the orderly.yml file within src/example:
orderly::orderly_use_resource("mtcars.csv", "example", path, prompt = FALSE)

# The result is a file that now has a 'resources' section
# containing our new file
writeLines(readLines(file.path(path, "src", "example", "orderly.yml")))

# (of course, we'd still need to modify the script to use it).
# }
