markdownToLatex {BiocWorkflowTools}R Documentation

Convert R markdown to F1000 latex

Description

Turn Rmarkdown version of workflow document into latex file that can be uploaded to F1000 Overleaf.

Usage

markdownToLatex(input, output = NULL, compress = TRUE)

Arguments

input

path to Rmd file to be converted

output

Specifies the folder where the output should be written. If left NULL this defaults to the same folder as the input file.

compress

If TRUE a zip file of the output directory is created, which can be uploaded to Overleaf

Details

This function has been deprecated. The recommended way to create the F1000 LaTeX and pdf version is to ensure your Rmarkdown document has the property 'output: BiocWorkflowTools::f1000_article' in the YAML header, and to use the function render in the rmarkdown pacakge on the document (or use the 'knit' button in RStudio).

Value

No value is returned, but a tex file is written to disk, and is given an identical name to the input Rmd except for the file extension. Accompanying figures are copied to the output directory long with style files and figures required to match the F1000 Research format.

Optionally the output directory can be compressed into a zip archive, which can then be uploaded to Overleaf either manually, or by passing it to the function uploadToOverleaf.
