I have an R blog with several posts. One of these posts (let's call this one "Post X") contains code that takes very long (several minutes) to complete. (This is a call to animate() from the {gganimate} package.)
When I am writing a new post, I'd like to see a preview before deploying the whole blog anew (to Netlify in my case). But I do not want to wait for Post X zu complete every time I'm building the site. (I'm simply using the "Build Website" button in RStudio's "Build" pane.)
But, of course, as soon as I finish the new post, I still want Post X to be included in the blog. What I want is an option that allows me to "skip" building of Post X and use the old files that are already there from the last build (or some other idea I cannot think of right now). I tried setting draft: true in the yaml of Post X but it's getting built anyhow.
Do you have any ideas?
