Copies an HTML dependency to a subdirectory of the given directory. The
subdirectory name will be name-version (for example,
"outputDir/jquery-1.11.0"). You may set options(htmltools.dir.version =
FALSE) to suppress the version number in the subdirectory name.
copyDependencyToDir(dependency, outputDir, mustWork = TRUE)A single HTML dependency object.
The directory in which a subdirectory should be created for this dependency.
If TRUE and dependency does not point to a
directory on disk (but rather a URL location), an error is raised. If
FALSE then non-disk dependencies are returned without modification.
The dependency with its src value updated to the new
location's absolute path.
In order for disk-based dependencies to work with static HTML files, it's generally necessary to copy them to either the directory of the referencing HTML file, or to a subdirectory of that directory. This function makes it easier to perform that copy.
makeDependencyRelative can be used with the returned
value to make the path relative to a specific directory.
