pak. Still some
limitations when using less common Linux distributions (e.g. Alpine) or
older distributions (e.g. Debian 11). However, for up-to-date Debian and
Ubuntu distributions, this should be fairly seemless and should result
in potentially huge installation speedups. See PPM
documentation and related
GitHub issues for some light bedtime reading on this subject.verbose to the
tugboat::create() function. If verbose = TRUE,
the resulting Dockerfile will be printed to the R console.In tugboat::build() the default value for the
build_context is now build_context = here::here() instead
of build_context = dirname(dockerfile). This resolves a
potential issue where, if the user saves the Dockerfile in a different
directory than the build context, tugboat::build()
incorrectly infers the build context as the directory containing the
Dockerfile. Now tugboat::build() will infer the build
context as the current project directory regardless of the Dockerfile
location. As always, the user can explicitly specify both of these
arguments to override the default values.
tugboat::create() will now execute
renv::install() before renv::snapshot() when
running in non-interactive mode. This resolves the issue where
renv::snapshot() won’t snapshot packages that are not
installed when being run non-interactively, thus potentially leaving
essential packages out of the Docker image.
tugboat no longer relies on the dockerfiler package. This allows support for a much wider range of base images and minimizes the dependencies for tugboat.
