This repo is an example of a customized Rocker Tidyverse image with RStudio settings, keybindings, and .RProfile.
To create your own, you can fork this repo, then modify .config/rstudio/ and .Rprofile with your own versions. You can find the config stuff locally at ~/.config/rstudio/ on Mac. I think it's in the same spot on Linux and AppData/Roaming/RStudio on Windows. This will contain keybindings, RStudio preferences, and any custom themes.
You can add any .ttf files to the .config/rstudio/fonts/ directory, which will then become available as RStudio editor fonts. You can modify your rstudio-prefs.json file to use those fonts, adding lines like this to the JSON:
"server_editor_font": "FiraCode",
"server_editor_font_enabled": true
Finally, you can add any other packages to be installed in the Dockerfile. Currently, one CRAN package and one GitHub package are installed:
RUN install2.r --error --deps TRUE \
slider \
&& rm -rf /tmp/downloaded_packages/ /tmp/*.rds
RUN installGithub.r weecology/ratdat \
&& rm -rf /tmp/downloaded_packages/ /tmp/*.rds
To add more packages, just put them in newlines like this:
RUN install2.r --error --deps TRUE \
slider \
wesanderson \
&& rm -rf /tmp/downloaded_packages/ /tmp/*.rds
RUN installGithub.r weecology/ratdat \
thomasp85/gganimate \
&& rm -rf /tmp/downloaded_packages/ /tmp/*.rds
Finally, from this repo's directory, you can run bash build_run.sh, which will build and launch the customized Rocker container. You can also specify a password, or a random one will be generated by default.
