pkgdown

Travis-CI Build Status CRAN_Status_Badge

pkgdown is designed to make it quick and easy to build a website for your package. You can see pkgdown in action at http://hadley.github.io/pkgdown/: this is the output of pkgdown applied to the latest version of pkgdown. Learn more in vignette("pkgdown") or ?build_site.

Installation

pkgdown is not currently available from CRAN, but you can install the development version from github with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("hadley/pkgdown")

Usage

Run pkgdown from the package directory each time you release your package:

pkgdown::build_site()

This will generate a docs/ directory. The home page will be generated from your package's README.md, and a function reference will be generated from the documentation in the man/ directory. If you are using GitHub, the easiest way to make this your package website is to check into git, then go settings for your repo and make sure that the GitHub pages source is set to "master branch /docs folder".

The package also includes an RStudio add-in which you can bind to a keyboard shortcut. I recommend Cmd + Shift + W: it uses Cmd + Shift, like all other package development worksheets, it replaces a rarely used command (close all tabs), and the W is mnemonic for website.
