simulate <- function(n){
data.frame(
x = stats::rnorm(n),
y = rpois(n, 1)

}Then, we will analyze each dataset with multiple analysis methods.

lm(y ~ + x, data = d)
}
reg2 <- function(d){
d$x2 <- d$x ^ 2
lm(y ~ x2, data = d)

## 15 coef_regression2_large coefficients(regression2_large)Each row is an intermediate step, and each command generates a target. A target is an output R object (cached when generated) or output file (specified with single quotes), and a command just an ordinary piece of R code (not necessarily a single function call). As input, commands may take objects imported from your workspace, targets generated by other commands, or initial input files. These dependencies give your project an underlying network.

plot_graph(my_plan, width = "100%", height = "500px")See also dataframes_graph(), render_graph(), and config() for faster and more customized regraphing.
You can also check the dependencies of individual targets.

For the dynamic report, we have to make sure the files are single-quoted. Single quotes denote file targets and file imports, and double quotes denote literal strings that should not be treated as dependencies where they are mentioned. Also, knit() needs to be somewhere visible in the workflow plan command so that drake knows to dig into the active code chunks of 'report.Rmd' and look for dependencies mentioned in calls to loadd() and readd().
report <- workplan(
report.md = knit('report.Rmd', quiet = TRUE), # nolint
file_targets = TRUE, strings_in_dots = "filenames")
report## target command

In other words, make() notices when your dependencies are different from last time, rebuilds any affected targets, and continues downstream. In particular, drake watches for nontrivial changes to
knit('your_report.Rmd') as a command in your workflow plan data frame), targets and imports mentioned in calls to readd() and loadd() in the code chunks to be evaluated. Drake treats these targets and imports as dependencies of the compiled output target (say, ‘report.md’).To explore the dependencies, please refer to the deps() and tracked() functions. Better yet, generate interactive graphs with plot_graph() as shown above. Hover over the nodes in the graph to see the content that drake watches.
There is more to reproducibility than just using drake to watch for dependencies. Packrat creates a tightly-controlled local library of packages to extend the shelf life of your project. And with Docker, you can execute your project on a virtual machine to ensure platform independence. Together, packrat and Docker can help others reproduce your work even if they have different software and hardware.
Drake has extensive high-performance computing support, from local multicore computing on your laptop to serious supercomputing across multiple nodes of a large cluster. See the parallelism vignette for the full details.
