The goal of typr is to render Typst documents from R. By default, it will try to use the Typst CLI. If the Typst CLI is not installed, it will try to use Quarto, which bundles Typst.

Installation

You can install the development version of typr from GitHub with:

# install.packages('pak')
pak::pak('christopherkenny/typr')

Example

The following example shows how to use typr to render a Typst document. It can take a path to a file or lines to use. Below, I pass lines to compile:

library(typr)
doc <- c(
  '#set page(height: auto, width: auto)',
  '= Example Doc',
  'Some text'
)
typr_compile(doc, output_format = 'png')
#> C:/Users/chris/AppData/Local/Temp/Rtmpeow7sK/filea881b5c2983.png
