Generate HTML report based on existing RMarkdown documents

Source: R/generate_report2.R

This is a support function that accepts parameters and creates a HTML document based on an RMarkdown template. This is an alternative to generate_report() which instead creates an RMarkdown document from scratch using individual code chunks.

generate_report2(
  output_format = rmarkdown::html_document(toc = TRUE, toc_depth = 6, theme = "cosmo"),
  output_file = "report.html",
  output_dir = getwd(),
  report_title = "Report",
  rmd_dir = system.file("rmd_template/minimal.rmd", package = "wpa"),
  ...
)

Arguments

output_format

output format in rmarkdown::render(). Default is rmarkdown::html_document(toc = TRUE, toc_depth = 6, theme = "cosmo").

output_file

output file name in rmarkdown::render(). Default is "report.html".

output_dir

output directory for report in rmarkdown::render(). Default is user's current directory.

report_title

other arguments to be passed to params. For instance, pass hrvar if the RMarkdown document requires a 'hrvar' parameter.
