Ability to install functionality contained in compendium itself in DOCKERFILE #42

Often the repository itself might contain packaged functionality in which case it needs to be installed itself. Currently, in this demo research compendium, (repo), all dependencies are installed correctly but the additional functionality contained in the package itself is not and rendering of paper.Rmd fails

It would be great if there was either an option or even auto-installation of the repo if a DESCRIPTION file is present.

Just a heads up that I got this working by adding devtools::install() to the Dockerfile r command.

Great, thanks. I'll work out a way to incorporate this.
