Build bookdown as epub

script.R

#### Convert bookdown to epub ####

library(devtools)

## Clone to folder

book_repo <- "hadley/adv-r"

dest_folder <- "~/documents/github"

usethis::create_from_github(book_repo,dest_folder,TRUE,protocol = "https")

# (Now manually open the .rproj file)

## Install packages

devtools::install_deps() # cross fingers and apply debug where necessary

## Bookdown to epub

bookdown::render_book(input = "index.rmd", output_format = bookdown::epub_book()) # cross fingers (and prepare pest control)

# epub should appear somewhere (_book in this case, I think) after it builds all the way
