If you have (or are thinking about) moving away from GitHub, GitLab is one alternative. If you're a regular #QuartoPub or #RStats user, you might find it hard to find information about how those work with #GitLab.

So here's a blog post showing you a few different ways to deploy Quarto documents with GitLab Pages!

One of my recent side projects has been building a little #QuartoPub dashboard to track patterns in ScotRail delays and cancellations. ScotRail *do* currently publish this data, in the form of an often hard to find, inaccessible PDF with a different file for every single day 😭

So I set up an #RStats script to scrape all the data regularly, and stuck it in a Quarto dashboard to see how things are changing over time! 📊

RE: https://social.treehouse.systems/@whitequark/116454915873481567

Anyone publishing a Quarto blog with Codeberg Pages? I'm new to this automation stuff, and can't decide between WebHooks, Forgejo Actions, and WoodPecker CI. If I use actions or WoodPecker, it would be just for "quarto render"; any R code output is frozen and will be run on my own computer. I have a custom domain.

#QuartoPub #CodebergPages #GitPages #ForgejoActions #WoodPeckerCI

Prefix plot filenames with figure number in knitr/ #QuartoPub

```
knitr::opts_hooks$set(label = function(options) {
this_label <- knitr::opts_current$get("label")
if (!startsWith(this_label, "fig")) {
return(options)
}

all_chunks <- knitr::all_labels(startsWith(label, "fig"))
fig_num <- which(all_chunks == this_label)
n <- formatC(fig_num, width = 3, flag = "0")
new_path <- paste0(options$fig.path, n, "_")

options$fig.path <- new_path
return(options)
})
```

Back on a train this morning, this time on my way to Osnabrück to give a workshop on literate programming and #Quarto at the STaPs conference (Sprachwissenschaftliche Tagung für Promotionsstudierende) tomorrow afternoon. If you're in or close to Osnabrück and want to join last minute, get in touch with me, I'm sure we can make that possible! https://staps.stuts.eu/

@stepan

Thanks!

Replacing the clipboard didn't work for me (just tested it) but I think I partially isolated the problem:

it seems to happen only with #QuartoPub files.

Latter I'll test which plugin, LSP or what is causing it

Seriously, how would one submit the LaTex output of creating a manuscript that uses a #QuartoPub theme / extra format for a journal?

Is everything except figures now included in the "*.tex file", and anyone else should be able to "compile" it without using `quarto`?

I've never done a LaTex journal submission before ....

If you're interested in learning #JuliaLang and are currently an #RStats user (or even if you're not!), then here's a little introduction to getting started! 📊

Blog post: https://nrennie.rbind.io/blog/introduction-julia-r-users/

#QuartoPub #Julia #RLadies

Since I'm on a #FOSS instance, I thought I'll share the top 5 #foss tools I use & recommend:

1. #JuliaLang:For Computational Modeling & Data Science

2. #ExcaliDraw: For Digital Whiteboarding

3. #MarkText: WYSIWYG Markdown Editor

4. #QuartoPub: For technical publishing (presentations, blogging, WiKis, Textbooks etc.) & computational notebooks. #Quarto + JuliaLang + #ExcaliDraw = 🔥

5. #DrawIO: Diagramming for publications.

@flourn0 Thanks! Most are made using my #rstats package for #Rasch #psychometrics with #quartopub to enable analysis code and documentation in the same document. https://pgmj.github.io/raschrvignette/RaschRvign.html

New preprint on #psychometrics criteria for "valid & reliable" measures, and reporting guidelines https://doi.org/10.31219/osf.io/3htzc

Also, we present an #rstats package to simplify psychometric analysis with #Rasch and combine analysis code and documentation with #quartopub https://pgmj.github.io/raschrvignette/RaschRvign.html

I've finally managed to put together a sort of vignette for the #rstats package for conducting #Rasch #psychometric analysis documented with #quartopub : https://pgmj.github.io/raschrvignette/RaschRvign.html

Link to the package (not available on CRAN): https://github.com/pgmj/RISEkbmRasch

One of the most underused ways to work with validity in #psychometrics is item hierarchy. Researchers should be able to hypothesize (roughly) how item locations will be arranged. This could even be pre-registered. Here is an item hierarchy figure made with a function from the #rstats #rasch package I’m working on (for #quartopub use).

Also, note the disordered item thresholds for q9, and distances between T2 and T3 for many items. Response categories will be a topic for another Friday! :)

I've made an #rstats package to simplify #Rasch #psychometrics with #quartopub reporting. This is the "targeting" figure (output from a single function), a sort of Wright Map that shows person and item threshold locations on the same logit scale.

The top part shows person location histogram, the middle part a histogram of item threshold locations, and the bottom individual item threshold locations. The histograms also show means and standard deviations.

@lakens I’m wrapping up a paper where we propose new reporting guidelines for #psychometric papers that clarify basic criteria for measurement. I’ve developed an #Rstats package that vastly simplifies conducting #Rasch analysis with #quartopub that follows our reporting guidelines. We also include a brief checklist for intervention scientists to assess psychometric quality of measures. Hopefully this is useful to improve quality of measurement. Preprint available in December.

Do you like #sveltejs? Do you like #quartopub? Sverto 1.0 is here! https://github.com/jimjam-slam/sverto/releases/tag/v1.0.0

Easily include Svelte-powered #datavis in your Quarto docs and have them seamlessly react to your Observable JavaScript!

This new release is much easier to use, and I’ll be showing it off at #positconf2024!

We are submitting an article to MDPI Metabolites (yes, I'm aware of the general opinion of MDPI as a likely predatory publisher, I can't persuade my PI otherwise, so that's where it's going).

I'm reaching the limits of Rmd or qmd -> Word, so I'm considering using the #QuartoPub template by @thias_mittner.

https://github.com/ihrke/mdpi

Has anyone else successfully used this template for an actual journal submission to an MDPI journal?

TIA.

#AcademicPublishing #RStats

Hi #econtwitter #rstats,

Looking for great blog posts or talks on reproducible workflows w/ #QuartoPub in R/Python.
Also, examples of high-profile irreproducibility blunders 😉. I'm interested in literate programming, version control w/ Git/GitHub, & dep management with uv & renv. Any suggestions?

Help! I'm trying to write a blog post but I've fallen into the customizing-my-quarto-blog quicksand! The more I struggle to get out the deeper I sink! I've written more CSS for this R blog post than R!

been playing about with my website. I have moved my blog here: https://blog.ritsokiguess.site/ and am filling it up with my old posts. Gotta say I like the quarto blog mechanism. #rstats #QuartoPub

TIL: If you're using #QuartoPub to render #python, you need to use

```
execute:
daemon: false
```

Or quarto will essentially reuse python sessions and NO REPRODUCIBILITY FOR YOU!

Hey #Fediverse! I made a thing... 🚀

A minimalist #Quarto template to help you:
✔️ Create a portfolio website
✔️ Document projects faster
✔️ Publish presentation slides
✔️ Maintain a technical blog
✔️ Showcase author profiles

👉 Live Demo: https://starter.hervyqa.dev
👉 Repository: https://git.sr.ht/~hervyqa/starter

Perfect when you need clean publishing without distractions!

#Quarto #QuartoPub #RStats #WebDev

My #QuartoPub website has had a little bit of a makeover recently!

✅ Dark-mode option
✅ New cover page (obviously made with #ggplot2)
✅ Cleaner fonts and higher contrast for improved accessibility
✅ Hopefully easier to find things

Your quarto html looks nice but the PDF brings that boring LaTex look back again?
I feel a bit like a wizard now, but...
`quarto render <doc.qmd> && wkhtmltopdf <doc.html> <doc.pdf>`
... is really cool :).

If I render my Quarto blog post, even with draft: true in the YAML, it seems to change some _site files. This causes issues when I have a draft I'm working on for a few days, because I have another version of my blog repo on a cloud server that updates events listings daily with a cron job. git conflicts! Is there some Quarto or git setting I'm missing? Or is doing this with multiple machines a bad idea altogether? Details here: https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-cli/discussions/13628 #QuartoPub #Quarto

I made my first #lua filter today, with some #copilot aid.
My #quartopub to hugo-md was not rendering figures with alt/caption in a way that let the #hugo theme deal with the styling.

This lua filter make sure that all images will render to markdown style from quarto, not html, letting hugo rendering hooks for whatever style you use do their job!
