Rsconnect folder created in docs/ after using rsconnect::deployApp #2214

Closed telphick closed 1 year ago

telphick commented 1 year ago

Hello,

Has anyone else experienced a folder named rsconnect being created in /docs after using rsconnect::deployApp? Is there a way to stop it being built? It seems to inhibit future building of the site as it is treated as if it should be built along with the rest of the site.

Code used currently: rsconnect::deployApp(appDir = "docs/", appPrimaryDoc = "index.html", server = 'server_here', appId = 'app_id_here')

TIA!

I recently hit a similar issue, found the recordDir parameter in rsconnect::deployApp could be used to change the location the rsconnect folder is created, allowing you to sidestep the issue
