How to build the Book

Book files based on https://github.com/rstudio/bookdown-demo

A good reference is also http://seankross.com/2016/11/17/How-to-Start-a-Bookdown-Book.html

Info on how to best save the figures https://www.jumpingrivers.com/blog/r-knitr-markdown-png-pdf-graphics/

Build the html book with

bookdown::render_book(input = "index.Rmd", output_format = "bookdown::gitbook")

Build the PDF with bookdown::render_book(input = "index.Rmd", output_format = "bookdown::pdf_book")

one can directly run the (executable) builder.sh to do that (or use that to "build the book" in RStudio)

The output wil be in the docs/ folder - so we can easily built a github page website from this

About the content of the book

TOC of the paper was

  • 01 Introduction
  • 02 The benefits and advantages of using R in hydrology
  • 03 R packages in a typical hydrological workflow
  • 04 Challenges and solutions when using R in hydrology
  • 05 A roadmap for the future of R in hydrology
  • 06 Conclusions

I think this could be a sensible start - Section 3 could probably become some chapters and we should have case studies?
