Basic Usage • pracpac

The pracpac package includes individual functions to add a template Dockerfile, build the source of an R package to be added to the Docker image, and define dependencies for that package in an renv lock file. All files created are moved to the Docker directory specified by the user, which as a default is set to a docker/ subdirectory of the R package. For convenience, the pracpac functionality is wrapped into the use_docker() function.

The example that follows uses the hellow R package that ships with pracpac. With pracpac installed, the hellow source code can be found with the following command:

To motivate the basic usage we will demonstrate how to use the example package copied to a tempdir().

NOTE: In practice, it is likely more convenient to use pracpac functions within the flow of R package development (i.e., with the working directory at the package root). As such, the file copying here may not be necessary for most usage.

The contents of the hellow package source are structured as follows:

├── DESCRIPTION
├── LICENSE
├── LICENSE.md
├── NAMESPACE
├── R
│   └── hello.R
├── hellow.Rproj
└── man
    └── isay.Rd

To create the template for a Docker image that contains the hellow R package the developer can use use_docker():

├── DESCRIPTION
├── LICENSE
├── LICENSE.md
├── NAMESPACE
├── R
│   └── hello.R
├── docker
│   ├── Dockerfile
│   ├── hellow_0.1.0.tar.gz
│   └── renv.lock
├── hellow.Rproj
└── man
    └── isay.Rd

With defaults set, this function will create a Dockerfile with the following contents:

FROM rocker/r-ver:latest

## copy the renv.lock into the image
COPY renv.lock /renv.lock

## install renv
RUN Rscript -e 'install.packages(c("renv"))'

## set the renv path var to the renv lib
ENV RENV_PATHS_LIBRARY renv/library

## restore packages from renv.lock
RUN Rscript -e 'renv::restore(lockfile = "/renv.lock", repos = NULL)'

## copy in built R package
COPY hellow_0.1.0.tar.gz /hellow_0.1.0.tar.gz

## run script to install built R package from source
RUN Rscript -e 'install.packages("/hellow_0.1.0.tar.gz", type='source', repos=NULL)'

And an renv.lock with the dependencies of hellow (in this case just the praise package):

{
  "R": {
    "Version": "4.0.2",
    "Repositories": [
      {
        "Name": "CRAN",
        "URL": "https://cran.rstudio.com"
      }
    ]
  },
  "Packages": {
    "praise": {
      "Package": "praise",
      "Version": "1.0.0",
      "Source": "Repository",
      "Repository": "CRAN",
      "Hash": "a555924add98c99d2f411e37e7d25e9f",
      "Requirements": []
    }
  }
}

The use_docker() defaults will produce the behavior described above. However, the functionality can be customized further. For example, the user can optionally specify a use case to create variants of template files (described in more detail in other vignettes). Another option is to specify an img_path defining where the files used to build the Docker image should be written, which may be useful for developers who prefer not to build images within the R package root. The following shows how this could be used to write the Docker template files to the directory above the package root:

├── Dockerfile
├── hellow
│   ├── DESCRIPTION
│   ├── LICENSE
│   ├── LICENSE.md
│   ├── NAMESPACE
│   ├── R
│   │   └── hello.R
│   ├── hellow.Rproj
│   └── man
│       └── isay.Rd
├── hellow_0.1.0.tar.gz

For a full list of options see ?use_docker.

The use_docker() function includes an option to “build”. By default this parameter is set to FALSE. The pracpac templates are likely to require some editing by the developer. However, after editing the Dockerfile and any constituent files to be added the user can call build_image() to build the Docker image:

Note that if the user has specified a different img_path in use_docker(), then the same path needs to be used with build_image().

By default the image will be built and tagged with the name of the R package and a “latest” and version suffix:

hellow                            0.1.0        e1a9bc2ebbb5   15 seconds ago   828MB
hellow                            latest       e1a9bc2ebbb5   15 seconds ago   828MB

The tagging scheme can be altered with the “tag” argument. The build_image() function also includes a parameter to leverage the Docker build “cache” feature. For more details see ?build_image. To use additional build parameters the user can call the Docker daemon directly on the host or use a client like stevedore.
