You can set another FROM in `new()` ```{r} library(dockerfiler) # Create a dockerfile template my_dock <- Dockerfile$new() my_dock$MAINTAINER("Colin FAY", "contact@colinfay.me") ``` Wrap your raw R Code inside the `r()` function to turn it into a bash command with `R -e`. ```{r} my_dock$RUN(r(install.packages("attempt", repo = "http://cran.irsn.fr/"))) ``` Classical Docker stuffs: ```{r} my_dock$RUN("mkdir /usr/scripts") my_dock$RUN("cd /usr/scripts") my_dock$COPY("plumberfile.R", "/usr/scripts/plumber.R") my_dock$COPY("torun.R", "/usr/scripts/torun.R") my_dock$EXPOSE(8000) my_dock$CMD("Rscript /usr/scripts/torun.R ") ``` See your Dockerfile : ```{r} my_dock ``` If you've made a mistake in your script, you can switch lines with the `switch_cmd` method. This function takes as arguments the positions of the two cmd you want to switch : ```{r} # Switch line 8 and 7 my_dock$switch_cmd(8, 7) my_dock ``` You can also remove a cmd with `remove_cmd`: ```{r} my_dock$remove_cmd(8) my_dock ``` This also works with a vector: ```{r} my_dock$remove_cmd(5:7) my_dock ``` `add_after` add a command after a given line. ```{r} my_dock$add_after( cmd = "RUN R -e 'remotes::install_cran(\"rlang\")'", after = 3 ) ``` Save your Dockerfile: ```{r eval = FALSE} my_dock$write() ``` ## Create a Dockerfile from a DESCRIPTION You can use a DESCRIPTION file to create a Dockerfile that installs the dependencies and the package. ```{r, eval = FALSE} my_dock <- dock_from_desc("DESCRIPTION") my_dock$CMD(r(library(dockerfiler))) my_dock$add_after( cmd = "RUN R -e 'remotes::install_cran(\"rlang\")'", after = 3 ) ```
