R Markdown is a document format that turns analysis in R into high-quality documents, reports, presentations, and dashboards.
R Tools for Visual Studio (RTVS) provides a R Markdown item template, editor support (including IntelliSense for R code within the editor), file generation capabilities, and live preview.
Using R Markdown
Close Visual Studio.
(One time only) Install
pandocfrom pandoc.org.Restart Visual Studio, which should pick up the pandoc installation.
Install the
knitrandrmarkdownpackages, which you can do from the interactive window:install.packages("knitr") install.packages("rmarkdown")Create a new R Markdown file using the File > New > File menu command and selecting R > R Markdown from the list. In the context of a project, right-click the project in Solution Explorer and select Add R Markdown (or Add > New Item and selecting R Markdown from the list).
The default contents of the new file are as follows:
--- title: "Untitled" output: html_document --- This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and Microsoft Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see <http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com>. When you select the **R Tools | Publish | Preview** button, a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this: ```{r} summary(cars) ``` You can also embed plots, for example: ```{r, echo=FALSE} plot(cars) ``` Note that the `echo = FALSE` parameter was added to the code chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the plot.
Previews
Visual Studio 2017 version 15.5 and later automatically provide live preview for R Markdown. To turn on automatic sync between the editor and the preview, select R Tools > Markdown > Automatic Sync (Ctrl+Shift+Y). If you aren't using automatic sync, you can refresh the preview using R Tools > Markdown > Reload R Markdown Preview.
You can also preview the file in HTML, PDF, and Microsoft Word formats by right-clicking in the editor and selecting one of the Preview commands. The same commands are also available on the R Tools > Markdown menu. (In earlier versions of Visual Studio these commands are found on the R Tools > Publish menu.)
