Create an app DESCRIPTION file

Add a DESCRIPTION template to a Shiny app.

use_appdesc(base_path = ".", title, author = "Matthew Leonawicz",
  url = "https://leonawicz.github.io/", license = "MIT",
  mode = "Showcase", tags)

Arguments

base_path

output directory.
title

app title.
author

author name.
url

author url.
license

license type.
mode

Shiny display mode.
tags

optional tags. May be a vector. See details.

Details

This file is used with Shiny app showcase mode. Since snapmeta is a developer package used by the SNAPverse author/maintainer, most arguments to use_appdesc have contextual defaults that you must otherwise override. title and tags do not have defaults. If missing, they should be updated directly in the generated DESCRIPTION file. Tags passed in the form tags = c("random variables", "plotmath") will result in random-variables, plotmath.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
use_appdesc()
# }
