• Folder for notebooks (R Notebooks) to report/develop analysis.
• Folder for data to host data, files in this folder are not sync to the git repository.
• Folder for code to host scripts to populate data folder.
• Container to reproduce workstation environment using docker.

Clone the repository git clone, and populate the data folder

|-- .gitignore
|-- LICENSE.md
|-- README.md
|-- docker-compose.yml
|-- code
    |-- script-to-populate-data_dir.sh 
|-- data
    |--.gitignore

1. To use the docker images you first need to install Docker:

• For Mac: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/
• For Windows: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/
• For Linux: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/

2. Create a .env_dev file with development environment variables
   We want to keep passwords secret, so this file won't be in the repository and the .gitignore has been instructed to ignore it

# random seed for reproducible models
random_seed=42

#database password
db_password=1234

3. Run docker-compose build --no-cache. This will build the development image with all the packages I defined installed within it.
4. Run docker-compose up and navigate to your browser to find Rstudio running on http://localhost:8787.
5. Access it by entering user rstudio and the password local_dev.
6. Once you are done, remember to shutdown the server and docker
   Go to the terminal and Press Ctrl+C
   docker-compose down
