New Quarto Project "Type:Website" ERROR: Unsuppported project type site #756

Closed jslingsby closed 2 years ago

jslingsby commented 2 years ago

I've just discovered Quarto and it looks like the answer to all my bugbears! You're my heroes! So much so that I want to abandon the Hugo Wowchemy website I've been working on for a week and start again with Quarto, but when I try:

New Project > New Directory > Quarto Project > and choose "Type: Website" I get:

"ERROR: Unsuppported project type site"

I've tried with and without the git repo and renv options and get the same result. The "(Default)" and "Book" options work fine, as do the Terminal commands quarto create-project mysite --type website etc

I suspect the "ppp" in "Unsuppported" may help find where the error is flagged? If nothing else, pedantically pointing out the spelling error may justify submitting an issue even if this is user error? :)

My RStudio version is not 2022.02, which I suspect is the issue... but when I check for updates I get "You're using the newest version of RStudio". I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling RStudio to see if the updater is missing something as it's bed time in Cape Town... I figure you may tell me to do that in the morning... And then we can start a new issue on RStudio's update checker ;)

Thanks!

Yes, that is indeed a result of the older version of RStudio creating a legacy syntax. I would super strongly recommend updating to RStudio 2022.02 (we just actually put out a patch release today that has a couple of quarto related fixes). Note that you can fix the project you generated by changing to type: website and renaming the site key to website

Yup, that fixed it. Weird that the IDE wasn't detecting a new version when I went "Help > Check for updates".

Thanks!
