R configurations for Docker

rocker

Overview

This repository contains Dockerfiles for different Docker containers of interest to R users.

Getting Started

To get started right away, ensure you have Docker installed and start a container with docker run --rm -ti rocker/r-base (see here for the docker run command options). In this case we are starting the r-base container (the base package to build from) in an interactive mode, see below for details of the other containers currently available. To get started on the rstudio container or its derivative containers (eg. hadleyverse and ropensci) you need to open a port, see the instructions in the wiki. The wiki also contains further instructions and information on the project, including how to extend these images and contribute to development.

Status

This is work in progress; please read our instructions to contributors and talk to @eddelbuettel and @cboettig about how to get involved.
