Deploy a dashboard from an ‘r-universe’ “packages.json” file.

Description

Deploy a dashboard from an ‘r-universe’ “packages.json” file.

orgmetrics_deploy_r_univ(
  url = NULL,
  dest_dir = fs::path_temp(),
  title = NULL,
  aggregation_period = 90,
  action = NULL
)

url: URL of a ‘.r-universe.dev’ GitHub repository, containing a “packages.json” file defining the repositories contained within the ‘r-universe’. If the parameter is not specified, function is presumed to be called within local version of an r-universe-like repository.
dest_dir: A local directory where all repositories of the specified ‘r-universe’ will be cloned, and also where data generated for the ‘orgmetrics’ dashboard will be stored. The default is a temporary path, but a permanent local path is better for local usage of this function, to avoid re-generating the same data each time.
title: Title for ‘orgmetrics’ dashboard. Default is NULL, in which case the title is taken to be the terminal element of url.
aggregation_period: Period in days over which prior activity is to be aggregated.
action: One of “preview”, to start and open a live preview of the dashboard website, “render” to render a static version without previewing or opening, or NULL to set up the quarto structure in the current temporary directory without doing anything. This option is useful to generate the dashboard structure so that it can be moved to a non-temporary location, and deployed or previewed from there.
