Create a WebR REPL sharelink from R code

webr_repl_link.Rd

Generates a shareable URL for R code that can be executed in the webR environment. The code is compressed, base64-encoded, and embedded in the URL.

Usage

webr_repl_link(
  code,
  filename = "script.R",
  path = NULL,
  autorun = FALSE,
  mode = NULL,
  version = "latest",
  base_url = NULL
)

Arguments

code

Character string containing R code to share

filename

Name for the file (default: "script.R")

path

Full path where the file will be placed in WebR (default: "/home/web_user/{filename}")

autorun

Logical. Whether to auto-execute the code when link is opened (default: FALSE)

mode

Character vector or string specifying which WebR interface components to show. Valid components: "plot", "files", "terminal", "editor". Can be c("plot", "files") or "plot-files". If NULL (default), shows all components.

version

WebR version to use ("latest" or specific version >= "v0.5.4")

base_url

WebR application URL. If NULL, uses global option or builds from version

Value

Character string containing the complete WebR sharelink URL

Examples

# Simple code sharing
code <- "plot(1:10)"
link <- webr_repl_link(code, autorun = TRUE)

# Show only plot and editor
link <- webr_repl_link(code, mode = c("plot", "editor"))

# String format for mode
link <- webr_repl_link(code, mode = "plot-files-terminal")

# Custom path and version with mode
link <- webr_repl_link(code,
                      path = "/tmp/my_script.R",
                      mode = c("editor", "terminal"),
                      version = "v0.5.4")
