quarto create wrapper

[maelle]

Would a function for for instance

quarto create-project mybook --type book

be in scope?

My use case is creating a function that creates a Quarto book (for testing code that will translate it), which is why I am not using the RStudio interface.

I second this request, but for creating Quarto websites.

It would also be nice if there were usethis like functions for add a chapter, or add appendix or other situations where some boilerplate needs to be added to the _quarto.yml and then you need to create a new .qmd with the same title.

eg:
add_chapter(name, .before, .after) could add name.qmd to the _quarto.yml file at the end of existing chapters or optionally before or after an existing one and then create and open name.qmd.

Please try current dev version. I added support for calling quarto_create_project(). it should ask for confirmation interactively, but you can opt-out for usage in a script workflow.
