Witold,

Vignettes, in the package sense, are and must be entirely self-contained as
far as I know. They are run automatically in completely clean R sessions.
I'm not sure a parameterized vignette makes a ton of sense within that
context.

The defaults for parameters are contained in the source, so a vignette using default parameter values would be completely self-contained.

It seems like a good way to document parameterized reports: Include one as a vignette that has more explanation about what the parameters mean, how they are used, etc. Then users can try it out with new parameter values before customizing it to their own needs.

Can you explain what you would want to have happen when the package is
built that would require parameterization?

Hello,

I have a package which includes some parameterized r-markdown report
which I would also like to build as package vignettes.

Is there a way to run the parameterized vignette creation with the
package build or package check?

Thank you
