`rsconnect::deploySite()` `siteName` parameter doesn't accept names with periods. #607

Closed antass closed 1 year ago

When deploying a site via the reconnect::deploySite() command in RStudio, the siteName parameter rejects names with periods. This is not the case when deploying Shiny apps, for example, with RStudio's built-in "Publish" button.

This fails: reconnect::deploySite(siteName="project-name.analysis.date").

This works: reconnect::deploySite(siteName="project-name_analysis_date").

When I run this code, I get a pretty clear error:

POST https://colorado.posit.co/rsc/__api__/applications
Application name must be between 3 and 64 alphanumeric characters, dashes, and underscores.

i.e. this is a restriction of connect application names.
