Run Sweave and Patch — SweaveMiktex • patchDVI

This is a simple script to run Sweave, then convert the LaTeX file, then patch it.

Usage

SweaveMiktex(Rnw, main,
    cmd = "texify",
    options = "--tex-option=-src-specials --tex-option=-interaction=nonstopmode",
    includedir = "--tex-option=--include-directory=",
    stylepath = FALSE,
    source.code = NULL,
    make = 1,
    preview = 'yap "%s"',
    patchLog=TRUE,
    sleep = 0, ...)

SweavePDFMiktex(Rnw, main,
    cmd = "texify --pdf",
    options = "--tex-option=-synctex=-1 --tex-option=-interaction=nonstopmode",
    includedir = "--tex-option=-include-directory=",
    stylepath = FALSE,
    source.code = NULL,
    make = 1,
    preview = NULL,
    patchLog = TRUE,
    sleep = 0, ...)

SweaveDVI(Rnw, main,
    texinputs = NULL,
    source.code = NULL,
    make = 1,
    links = NULL,
    preview = NULL,
    patchLog = TRUE, ...)

SweavePDF(Rnw, main,
    texinputs = NULL,
    source.code = NULL,
    make = 1,
    links = NULL,
    preview = NULL,
    patchLog = TRUE, ...)

SweaveDVIPDFM(Rnw, main,
    latex = "latex", latexOpts = "-synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode",
    dvipdfm = "dvipdfm", dvipdfmOpts = "",
    texinputs = NULL,
    source.code = NULL,
    make = 1,
    preview = NULL,
    patchLog = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

Rnw: The .Rnw input file
main: The .tex file on which to run latex, defaulting to the output file from Sweave
cmd: The LaTeX command to run
options: Options to pass to LaTeX
includedir: The prefix for an option to give the location of Sweave.sty
stylepath: stylepath argument to pass to Sweave
source.code: If not NULL, a filename to source before running Sweave
make: Value to pass to SweaveAll to control which Sweave files are processed
preview: Command to use to preview result, or NULL for no preview
patchLog: Whether to attempt to patch the console log and .log file
sleep: Number of seconds to sleep if an error is detected in the run
texinputs: Extra paths to pass to texi2dvi
links: If not NULL, an option to turn on production of source links via Synctex or source specials
latex,latexOpts: The function to call to convert the .tex to .dvi, and options to put on the command line.
dvipdfm, dvipdfmOpts: The function to call to convert the .dvi to .pdf, and options to put on the command line.
...: Additional options to pass to SweaveAll

Details

If the Rnw argument is a filename ending in .tex, then weaving is skipped, but the .dvi file is still patched (because one of the other files in the project might have come from Sweave).

The source.code argument may be used to temporarily install code before running the document through the weaver (e.g. Sweave). It could install an experimental version of Sweave, or set up some variables to be used by other code chunks, etc. (Note that things are sourced locally, whereas Sweave runs things in the global environment, so the file will need to make explicit assignments there, and it should avoid using names that clash with the argument names to SweaveMiktex or SweavePDFMiktex.)

The functions invoke Latex differently. SweaveMiktex is designed to call Miktex's texify command to produce a .dvi file. SweavePDFMiktex does the same, but produces a .pdf. SweaveDVI and SweavePDF are similar, but use a modified version of R's texi2dvi function to invoke Latex. SweaveDVIPDFM does the conversion to .pdf in two stages.

The patchLog option makes use of the new patchLog function.

Value

These functions are run for the side effects.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
SweaveMiktex("chapter.Rnw", "book.tex")
} # }
