Add kableExtra package, please

[ciaranmci]

I want to produce a publicaiton-ready table using the kableExtra package in R. I previously requested installation of the magick package because the developers of kable libraries mentioned it as a dependency...but of course I never requested installation of kableExtra.

I haven't needed the other dependency (webshot package) to produce the publication-ready table when running a local instance of R (not in the OpenSAFELY docker). Would it be worth installing that too, or is its webpage functionality a No-No for containers?

I've noticed that the kableExtra and webshot packages have been installed. Thank you.

My local OpenSAFELY docker container still fails to save a kable table object using the kableExtra::save_kable().
The guidance on feature dependency notes that the machine might need to run webshot::install_phantomjs():

Trying to call webshot::install_phantomjs() obviously throws an error in my local OpenSAFELY docker container (I assume because a call is being made to download something from outside).

Am I correct to assume that my lovely kable tables are probably not possible if kableExtra needs PhantomJS installed in the environment?

Yes, that sounds like the case. We may be able to install it into the docker image, depending on how big it is. I'll look into it.
