Better mechanisms to show rendering errors #189

Closed etiennebacher closed 9 months ago

etiennebacher commented 9 months ago

render_docs() showed that rendering plot2.Rd failed, but I had no information about why. This means that I had to do altdoc:::.rd2qmd("man/plot2.Rd", ".") and then quarto::quarto_render("plot2.qmd", output_format = "markdown") to see that the error was simply due to the fact that the package basetheme was not installed.

We should have an easier way to show errors when needed.

What did you see with verbose=TRUE?

Forgot we had that argument 😅
