# R Docker template
A minimal template for using R with renv inside a Docker image.
## Description
This template uses the base Docker image [`vigenere23/renv-dev`](https://github.com/vigenere23/renv-docker) for using R with `renv`. It also sets up some sweat volumes for hot reloading and cache.
## Known problems
- Figures are outputed as pdf files instead of interactive windows
- Files created by the Docker image require root privileges, meaning you can't modifiy or remove them without "sudo-ing"
## Usage
### Enable X11
```shell
./scripts/init.sh
```
This will add remote control access on X11 for Docker. To remove access, simply run :
```shell
./scripts/uninit.sh
```
### Build image
This will build the R image and sets up volumes, install dependencies, and create `renv` related files.
```shell
docker-compose up --build
```
### Launch interactive R shell
```shell
docker-compose run r
```
### Launch a R script
```shell
docker-compose run r Rscript test.r
```
### Execute a R command
```shell
docker-compose run r Rscript -e 'renv:::renv_paths_cache()'
```
