Create a New Quarto Blog Post

Source: R/qpost.R
qpost.Rd

qpost() opens an interactive dialog for entering a post's title and other metadata, then scaffolds the corresponding blog post file.

Usage

qpost()

Value

Nothing. What matters are the side effects:

  • create a folder named with the date followed by the kebab-case post title

  • create an index.qmd file

  • copy the (optional) image file into the folder

  • populate the YAML front matter

  • open the new file in RStudio or Positron for editing

Details

qpost() requires a pane-capable IDE (RStudio or Positron) because it relies on rstudioapi to display the dialog and open the resulting file. It cannot be used in a plain R console or non-interactive script.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # interactive()
qpost()
}
