Boilerplate should include R component metadata #29

Closed nicolaskruchten closed 5 years ago

nicolaskruchten commented 6 years ago

Once @rpkyle is done adding R code generation to dash (see https://github.com/plotly/dash/issues/445) this repo will need to be updated to:

  1. Contain all the necessary directories required for the R classes to be put into the right place
  2. Contain all the necessary boilerplate files that an R package needs such that it can be installed via install_github() from https://github.com/r-lib/devtools
  3. The NPM scripts and README are updated such that both the Python and R packages are generated simultaneously

Note: nothing in this issue implies that the boilerplate should depend on any part of the R ecosystem being installed on the system of the component developer.

Note: most likely as a precursor to this broader project, https://github.com/plotly/dash-core-components/issues/357 and https://github.com/plotly/dash-html-components/issues/74 should be completed and the boilerplate that this repo generates should look similar to the ones we'll use there.
