Which R version are you using to produce the problem? A few first indications:
- The regex in ".install_extras" does not match your file endings: Change "Rmd_tmp$" into "Rmd_t$" - Try "output: rmarkdown::html_vignette" instead of "output: html_document" in the header of the file "ABVignetteWithLocalChild.Rmd" (and possibly other "*.Rmd"s) - Try to specify the child doc name directly in the chunks via "```{r child = "NoBuildVignette.Rmd_t"}" instead of "```{r includChild, child = child_docs}" Note the possible typo in the tag "includChild" (-> "includeChild"?) (and possibly other "*.Rmd"s) PS: You can find a working example of child Rmds for a CRAN package here: https://github.com/aryoda/tryCatchLog/tree/master/vignettes On Wed, 2018-11-07 at 13:33 +0100, Witold E Wolski wrote: > Hello, > > This is a problem I posted about already some time ago: > https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2018-September/076786.html > > Finally, I did had some time to create a minimal package to reproduce > the problem that vignettes with child can not be build. > https://github.com/wolski/RmarkdownVignetteProblem > > The problem basically is that while all the vignettes can be build by running > > devtools::build_vignettes > or > rmarkdown::render > > they will all fail to build when running > devtools::build() > or > R CMD build > > except of the > ABVignetteWithLocalChild.Rmd > for which I did apply the workaround suggested by Duncan in this github > issue: > https://github.com/yihui/knitr/issues/1540 > > > Best regards > Witek > > > ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
