A template for a combined docker-renv environment

• Clone this/use as a template
• Start working within R. Populate your renv environment. Don't forget to renv::snapshot()
• Adjust the Dockerfile. The default includes Stata, you may not need it.
• Adjust the (hidden) .myconfig.sh in particular the name and where you want to store the Docker image.
• Build the docker image with build-r.sh: cd build; bash ./build-r.sh. It will use the renv.lock file to populate packages into the image. These will be available next time you run the image.
• Launch Rstudio as a web app by running bash ./start_rstudio.sh.

System Requirements

• Works with command line Docker on Linux. Not tested in any other environment.
• The resulting Docker image should be usable in any environment.
