settingsSync

R package and Rstudio Addin to sync its settings, keymaps and keyboard shortcuts, using Google Drive.

Installation

install.packages("settinsSync")
# or
pak::pak("notPlancha/settingsSync")
# or pak::pak("notPlancha/settingsSync@2.0.0") If you want a specific version

Version 2.0.0 is incompatible with CRAN policies, because it writes the files by default but it has a generally better api because of it. Otherwise it’s generally the same IMO.

Usage

You can directly call settingsSync::sync(), or use the Rstudio Addin (they do the same thing); and follow the instructions. The extension pulls the settings from Google Drive (if any), tries to merge them with the local settings (the package has conflict resolution), and then pushes the merged settings to Google Drive.

Contributing

I’m using pixi to ease development, and pre-commit. So after cloning:

# scoop install pixi
pixi install
pixi run hook-install

should do the trick. After that open the project in Rstudio. If you want to install the exact package versions I used, then run pak::lockfile_install().

All of this is optional, it just helps upkeep for me. If you know what you’re doing, don’t worry about it.

[!NOTE]
I didn’t add R to pixi because Windows versions are not updated and they don’t work well with rstudio (and rstudio in conda is also not updated as of writing).

Feel free to open an issue or a PR.
