Generate HTML reference manual

Renders complete package reference manual in HTML format.

Usage

render_package_manual(package, outdir = ".", link_cb = r_universe_link)

render_base_manuals(outdir = ".")

r_universe_link(package)

Arguments

package

name of the package

outdir

where to put the html file

link_cb

callback function which can be used to customize hyperlinks to other packages. This function gets invoked when a help file contains links to another package, and should return the URL to the html reference manual for this other package. Set to NULL to drop cross-package links.

Value

path to the generated html document

Details

Math rendering and syntax highlighting are done server-side in R such that no JavaScript libraries are needed in the browser, which makes the documents portable and fast to load.

Examples

htmlfile <- render_package_manual('compiler', tempdir())
if(interactive()) utils::browseURL(htmlfile)
