README
## `drat` Repository for easy forking
`drat` ([CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/package=drat), [GitHub](https://github.com/eddelbuettel/drat), [docs](https://eddelbuettel.github.io/drat)) makes it easy to host your own
CRAN-like repositories for packages (or [data](https://journal.r-project.org/archive/2017/RJ-2017-026/index.html)).
Many users have started their own `drat` repo by forking the original [GitHub
repo](https://github.com/eddelbuettel/drat) -- but as time passes this _code_ repo
accumulates more _code_ for `drat`, as well as
[documentation](https://eddelbuettel.github.io/drat)
making it less of an ideal place to start for _your own_ repo. So this repo offers an alternative:
- Just fork this repo into your own domain, and you have a working `drat`
repo.
- Enable [GitHub Pages](https://docs.github.com/en/github/working-with-github-pages)
with the `docs/` folder in the main branch:
Note, however, that you currently **must** use the `drat` package directly
from its [GitHub repo](https://github.com/eddelbuettel/drat) in order to use
GitHub Pages off `docs/` in the main branch---and you need to enable this,
e.g. via `options(dratBranch="docs")` as the _released_ version only supports
a `gh-pages` branch. So in a sense this repo is currently "experimental" as
is the support in the not-yet-released `drat` version.
This repo was initiated (using command `dratPackage()`) with the source and
windows binary of the last CRAN release of `drat`. You can delete either or
both (for example via command `pruneRepo()`) and then
add your own (via `insertPackage()`).
