Create a workflow to render Rmd files

[spsanderson]

I'm not finding what I'm looking for as I search around but is it possible to create a workflow to do something like rmarkdown::render(input = ...)

There is an example workflow about Rendering one or more Rmarkdown files when they change and commit the result.

https://github.com/r-lib/actions/tree/v2-branch/examples#render-rmarkdown

You have other examples for rmarkdown like building a bookdown website there too that you can adapt.

Steps are:

• Checkout project
• Install pandoc
• Install R
• Install your dependencies (listing in workflow file, using renv, or using a DESCRIPTION file for example)
• Render the document (calling rmarkdown::render())
• Commit the resutls, or deploy your outputs

If you think that stuff are missing from current example, I can try update or adapt them for a more specific use case. thanks!
