This patch release of workflowr includes minor improvements, updated documentation, bug fixes, and lots of internal refactoring.

Minor improvements

  • Workflowr functions check if the working directory exists (idea from @pcarbo, #185)

  • wflow_use_github() can now create repositories for GitHub organizations using the new argument organization. However, GitLab Groups should still be specified with the argument username for wflow_use_gitlab() (bug report from @stephens999, #186)

  • Any workflowr function that prompts for user input will continue to re-prompt until valid input has been entered (or canceled by hitting the key Esc) (idea from @pcarbo)

  • All functions that commit to the Git repository first check for the availability of the Git variables user.name and user.email (either global or local), which are required for creating a commit (#85)

  • The workflowr icon is displayed in browser tabs of workflowr websites (idea from @pcarbo)

Updated documentation

  • Document that GitLab.com provides private repositories with access control to the source code repository and the website (#187)

  • Update URL to RStudio-specific instructions for installing pandoc (bug report from @PietrH, #190)

  • Document in the FAQ vignette how to include an external image using an absolute URL to the image hosted on another website (idea from @JiaxiangBU, #159)

  • Document how to embed Shiny apps with knitr::include_app() and shinyapps.io (idea from @rsimon64, #130)

  • Update the FAQ on including external images to account for the breaking change in knitr::include_graphics() introduced in knitr version 1.28 (bug report from @ditordccaa, #103)

  • Add FAQ entry on how to use a Git hosting site that uses the HTTP protocol (idea from @antass, #163)

Bug fixes

  • Fix Windows-specific bug that caused the table of past versions to be missing from the workflowr report (bug introduced in version 1.5.0)

Internal refactoring

  • Internal refactoring for increased speed and improved error handling of input arguments

  • Check for class with inherits() (#189)

  • Switch to use pandoc option --include-in-header to insert workflowr-specific CSS and other metadata (surprisingly --include-before-body works fine)
