Use on Google Compute Engine

• https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/google/
• https://hub.docker.com/r/rocker/shiny/
• https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/containers/container_vms

gcloud --project iih-tools-analytics \
  compute instances create r-shiny-server \
  --image container-vm \
  --zone europe-west1-b

gcloud --project iih-tools-analytics \
  compute firewall-rules create shiny-server --allow tcp:3838
  
gcloud --project iih-tools-analytics \
  compute ssh --zone europe-west1-b r-shiny-server

Now should be logged in to GCE

## docker working?
sudo docker run hello-world

sudo apt-get update

## why does this not work on port 80?
## runs internally, configure virtual hosts on Apache
sudo docker run -d \
        --restart=always\
        -p 3838:3838 \
        -v /srv/shinyapps/:/srv/shiny-server/ \
        -v /srv/shinylog/:/var/log/ \
        markedmondson1234/shiny-server
        
## CTRL-D to get back to local

Log in to docker container and setup if needed

## get name of docker container
docker ps

## example logging in for container called 'focused_hawking'
sudo docker exec -it focused_hawking bash

### Now in docker container, do stuff:

## install stuff under sudo to make sure all users can use it
sudo su - -c "R -e \"install.packages('shiny', repos='http://cran.rstudio.com/')\""
sudo su - -c "R -e \"devtools::install_github('MarkEdmondson1234/googleAuthR')\""
sudo su - -c "R -e \"devtools::install_github('MarkEdmondson1234/privatePackage', auth_token='YOUR_PAT_TOKEN')\""

Running Shinyapps / RMarkdown

Put shiny apps in /srv/shinyapps/appdir where /appdir/ will appear at http://localhost:3838/appdir/

## copy app files up from your local to GCE
sudo gcloud --project iih-tools-analytics \
      compute copy-files ~/dev/RMarkdownTraining \
      r-shiny-server:/srv/shinyapps/r-markdown-training \
      --zone europe-west1-b

• If multiple .Rmd files, rename one of the .Rmd files to index.Rmd to make it work...
• RMarkdown apps then available at http://instance-ip:3838/folder-name/app-name

Launching new GCE instances

Launch with docker image predone via configuration.yaml
