# rmdformats
[](https://cran.r-project.org/package=rmdformats)
[](https://github.com/juba/rmdformats/actions?query=workflow%3AR-CMD-check)
> **Note for quarto users:** these templates are only suitable for RMarkdown documents. I published one quarto custom format called [bookup](https://github.com/juba/bookup-html) which is a porting of the `robobook` template.
This R package provides ready-to-use HTML output formats and templates for
RMarkdown documents. The goal is to produce clean documents "out of the box",
with or without the RStudio IDE.
## Formats gallery
The package provides several HTML output formats. Click on any image to see an HTML output sample.
### `downcute`
Taken from the [docute](https://github.com/egoist/docute) project theme and its adaptation by [John Coene](https://twitter.com/jdatap). Responsive, with a dynamic table of contents and a dark theme switcher.
[](https://juba.github.io/rmdformats/articles/examples/downcute.html)
`downcute chaos` is a variation created by [Zac Garland](https://github.com/zac-garland). It has a slightly different color theme, and defaults to dark mode. To use it, add a `downcute_theme: "chaos"` option in your YAML preamble.
[](https://juba.github.io/rmdformats/articles/examples/downcute_chaos.html)
### `robobook`
Adapted from the [bookdown](https://bookdown.org/) theme, with Roboto family fonts. Fully responsive with dynamic table of contents and collapsible navigation.
[](https://juba.github.io/rmdformats/articles/examples/robobook.html)
### `material`
Format taken from the [Material design theme for Bootstrap 3](https://mdbootstrap.com/). Document is split into pages at each `
` header, and the table of contents allows an animated navigation between these pages (you can use the `cards: false` preamble parameter to disable the splitting and display all the cards at once).
[](https://juba.github.io/rmdformats/articles/examples/material.html)
### `readthedown`
Adapted from the corresponding `readtheorg` theme of the [org-html-themes](https://github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes) project, fully responsive with dynamic table of contents and collapsible navigation.
[](https://juba.github.io/rmdformats/articles/examples/readthedown.html)
### `html_clean`
Simple and clean template with dynamic table of contents, very similar to the one from the great [knitrBootstrap package](https://github.com/jimhester/knitrBootstrap) by Jim
Hester.
[](https://juba.github.io/rmdformats/articles/examples/html_clean.html)
### `html_docco`
Simple template, no table of contents. CSS heavily inspired from the default one of the [docco](https://ashkenas.com/docco/) project.
[](https://juba.github.io/rmdformats/articles/examples/html_docco.html)
### `lockdown`
`lockdown` is an exact copy of the default RMarkdown `html_document` template, with an added functionality : each time you click on a link to get out, you'll see a friendly reminder to wash your hands and wear a mask. Yes, it is a (bad) attempt at a (bad) joke, sorry !

### Helpers
The package also provides RStudio document
templates to easily generate an empty and ready to use rmarkdown file with
several configuration directives.
It also provides the `pilltabs()` helper function, which allows to display a crosstab dynamically. See [one of the output samples](https://juba.github.io/rmdformats/articles/examples/robobook.html#table) for a live example.
## Installation
You can install the latest stable release from CRAN :
```r
install.packages("rmdformats")
```
Or the latest development snapshot from GitHub :
```r
install.packages(remotes) # if necessary
remotes::install_github("juba/rmdformats")
```
## Creating a new document
Just create a new `Rmd` file and add the following in your YAML preamble :
```yaml
---
output: rmdformats::
---
```
Within RStudio , you can also choose `File` > `New File...` > `R Markdown...`, then select `From Template`. You should then be able to create a new document from one of the package templates.
## Options
Depending on the features provided by the template, you can add the following options to your YAML preamble. Look at the template function help page for a valid list :
- `fig_width` : figures width, in inches
- `fig_height` : figures height, in inches
- `fig_caption` : toggle figure caption rendering
- `highlight` : syntax highlighting
- `thumbnails` : if TRUE, display content images as thumbnails
- `lightbox` : if TRUE, add lightbox effect to content images
- `gallery` : if TRUE, add navigation between images when displayed in lightbox
- `use_bookdown` : if TRUE, will use `bookdown` instead of `rmarkdown` for HTML rendering, thus providing section numbering and [cross references](https://bookdown.org/yihui/bookdown/cross-references.html).
- `embed_fonts` : if `TRUE` (default), use local files for fonts used in the template instead of links to Google Web fonts. This leads to bigger files but ensures that the fonts are available
- additional aguments are passed to the base `html_document` RMarkdown template
Example preamble :
```yaml
---
title: "My document"
date: "`r Sys.Date()`"
author: John Doe
output:
rmdformats::downcute:
self_contained: true
thumbnails: true
lightbox: true
gallery: false
highlight: tango
---
```
