Building and developing shinyDAG

shinyDAG dev environment

I use the Dockerfile in this folder to create a fully-featured RStudio docker container that is pretty close to the final shinyDAG environment. Note that it's not perfect and if you install packages into this container, you'll need to also update the main shinyDAG docker file here.

To create the dev environment:

# make sure you're in the ./dev folder
cd dev

# make the dev image
docker build -t shinydag-dev .

# move back to shinyDAG proper and start up the dev image
cd ..
docker run --rm -p 8787:8787 -v $(pwd):/home/rstudio/shinydag -e PASSWORD="password" shinydag-dev

(Note that you should probably change the password above, but if you're only running locally it's not a big deal.)

Then navigate to localhost:8787 and login using the password you entered.

Create shinyDAG image

docker build -t gerkelab/shinydag:dev .

# To send up to docker hub
docker push

The :dev indicates that this image is tagged dev, but this can be anything you want. If you don't add a tag, it's assumed to be :latest which is kind of like git's master but for docker containers.
