rsconnect 0.8.29

Introduced support for publishing to Posit Cloud. This feature is currently in closed beta and requires access to an enabled account on Posit Cloud. See Posit Cloud’s Announcement for more information and to request access.
Update company and product names for rebranding to Posit.

rsconnect 0.8.28

Shiny applications and Shiny documents no longer include an implicit dependency on ragg when that package is present in the local environment. This reverts a change introduced in 0.8.27.

Shiny applications should add an explicit dependency on ragg (usually with a library("ragg") statement) to see it used by shiny::renderPlot (via shiny::plotPNG).

The documentation for shiny::plotPNG explains the use of ragg. (#598)
Fix bug that prevented publishing or writing manifests for non-Quarto content when a Quarto path was provided to the quarto argument of writeManifest(), deployApp(), and related functions.
Escape account names when performing a directory search to determine an appropriate server. (#620)

rsconnect 0.8.27

Quarto content will no longer silently deploy as R Markdown content when Quarto metadata is missing or cannot be gathered. Functions will error, requesting the path to a Quarto binary in the quarto argument. (#594)
Fix typo for .rscignore. (#599)
Quarto deployments specifying only an appDir and quarto binary but not an appPrimaryDoc work more consistently. A directory containing a .qmd file will deploy as Quarto content instead of failing, and a directory containing an .Rmd file will successfully deploy as Quarto content instead of falling back to R Markdown. (#601)
If the ragg package is installed locally, it is now added as an implicit dependency to shiny apps since shiny::renderPlot() now uses it by default (when available). This way, shiny apps won’t have to add library(ragg) to get consistent (higher-quality) PNG images when deployed. (#598)

rsconnect 0.8.26

Add ability to resend shinyapps.io application invitations (#543)
Show expiration status in shinyapps.io for invitations (#543)
Allow shinyapps.io deployments to be private at creation time (#403)
Update the minimum openssl version to 2.0.0 to enable publishing for users on FIPS-compliant systems without the need for API keys. (#452)
Added Quarto support to writeManifest, which requires passing the absolute path to a Quarto executable to its new quarto parameter
Added quarto parameter to deployApp to enable deploying Quarto documents and websites by supplying the path to a Quarto executable
Added support for deploying Quarto content that uses only the jupyter runtime
Added support for selecting a target image in the bundle manifest
The showLogs function takes a server parameter. (#57)
Added the rsconnect.tar option, which can be used to specify the path to a tar implementation instead of R’s internal implementation. The previous method, using the RSCONNECT_TAR environment variable, still works, but the new option will take precedence if both are set.

rsconnect 0.8.25

Use the curl option -T when uploading files to avoid out of memory errors with large files. (#544)
The rsconnect.max.bundle.size and rsconnect.max.bundle.files options are enforced when processing an enumerated set of files. Previously, these limits were enforced only when bundling an entire content directory. (#542)
Preserve file time stamps when copying files into the bundle staging directory, which then propagates into the created tar file. (#540)
Configuration directories align with CRAN policy and use the location named by tools::R_user_dir. Configuration created by earlier versions of this package is automatically migrated to the new location. (#550)

rsconnect 0.8.24

Added support for publishing Quarto documents and websites
Added support for .rscignore file to exclude files or directories from publishing (#368)

Use new Packrat release on CRAN, 0.6.0 (#501)

Warn, rather than err, when the repository URL for a package dependency cannot be validated. This allows deployment when using archived CRAN packages, or when using packages installed from source that are available on the server. (#508)
Err when the app-mode cannot be inferred; seen with empty directories/file-sets (#512)
Add verbose option to writeManifest utility (#468)

Insist on ShinyApps accounts in showUsers() (#398)
Improve the regex used for the browser and browseURL lints to include a word boundary (#400)

GitLab is seen as a valid SCM source (#491)
