Usage

build_home(pkg, quiet, next_page = NULL)

Arguments

pkg

a list generated from pkgdown::as_pkgdown() from the site/ folder of a lesson.

quiet

a boolean passed to build_html(). if TRUE, this will have pkgdown report what files are being built

next_page

the next page file name. This will allow the navigation element to be set up correctly on the navigation bar

Value

nothing. This is used for its side-effect

Details

The index page of the lesson is a combination of two pages:

  1. index.md (or README if the index does not exist)

  2. learners/setup.md

This function uses render_html() to convert the page into HTML, which gets passed on to the "syllabus" or "overview" templates in varnish (via the build_html() function as the {{{ readme }}} and {{{ setup }}} keys.
