Data Visualization with R

PMAP 8101 β€’ Summer 2023

Quarto + {targets} + {renv} = magic! πŸͺ„


How to build the site

  1. Install RStudio version 2022.07.1 or later since it has a Quarto installation embedded in it. Otherwise, download and install Quarto separately.
  2. Open datavizs23.Rproj to open an RStudio Project.
  3. If it’s not installed already, R should try to install the {renv} package when you open the RStudio Project for the first time. If you don’t see a message about package installation, install it yourself by running install.packages("renv") in the R console.
  4. Run renv::restore() in the R console to install all the required packages for this project.
  5. Run targets::tar_make() in the R console to build everything.
  6. πŸŽ‰ All done! πŸŽ‰ The complete website will be in a folder named _site/.

{targets} pipeline

I use the {targets} package to build this site and all its supporting files. The complete pipeline is defined in _targets.R and can be run in the R console with:

targets::tar_make()

The pipeline does several major tasks:

  • Build Quarto website: This project is a Quarto website, which compiles and stitches together all the .qmd files in this project based on the settings in _quarto.yml. See the Quarto website documentation for more details.

  • Upload resulting _site/ folder to my remote server: Quarto places the compiled website in a folder named /_site/. The pipeline uses rsync to upload this folder to my personal remote server. This target will only run if the UPLOAD_WEBSITES environment variable is set to TRUE, and it will only work if you have an SSH key set up on my personal server, which only I do.

The complete pipeline looks like this:

(This uses mermaid.js syntax and should display as a graph on GitHub. You can also view it by pasting the code into https://mermaid.live.)
