access R running in Docker container

[januz]

For reproducibility I would like to implement the following workflow using renv and Docker

• navigate to project directory root and start nvim
• start R running in a Docker container by
  • getting the R version used in the project by parsing renv.lock
  • start rocker container with the specified R version
  • on start-up, mount local directories to Docker container
    • current path so that code and outputs are written to local machine
    • ideally also local directory for renv cache that can be shared across projects

I have a similar workflow set up for use with RStudio Server running in a rocker container but would like to leave RStudio behind and do all my development going forward using neovim/R.nvim. Does anyone have a workflow set up that uses a local nvim session connecting to R running in a Docker container? I know that there have been several issues about this in the Nvim-R repo but I didn't see any actual solutions:

jalvesaq/Nvim-R#259
jalvesaq/Nvim-R#467
jalvesaq/Nvim-R#570
jalvesaq/Nvim-R#572

Thanks for your help!
