Open certain files in RStudio #27

Open ck37 opened 6 years ago

ck37 commented 6 years ago

Hello,

Thanks for all of the work integrating R and RStudio, it is much appreciated. After a gentle prodding by Yuvi, I would like to put in a feature request to allow a "launch binder" button to open rstudio-server and also have 1 or more files (R notebooks or source files especially) open by default within rstudio.

This would be a better user experience so that people don't have to manually open 1 or more specific R notebooks, but instead would have at least the main notebook already open (and ideally allow for 2+ files to be open). Maybe this is already possible?

It seems like this could be implemented as URL arguments and/or as an option specified in a configuration file.

Thanks, Chris

Do you know where the documentation is for these options in RStudio?

Unfortunately I don't. I haven't worked with configuring rstudio binder/jupyter launching before, but use Rstudio on a daily basis for general data science work.

I wonder if the rstudioapi could be useful here.

Opening an Rstudio session when the user clicks on an Rstudio project file (.Rproj) in the file browser would indeed be very convenient.
