.cstr_apply

Exported for custom constructor design. If recurse is TRUE (default), we recurse to construct args and insert their construction code in a fun(...) call returned as a character vector. If args already contains code rather than object to construct one should set recurse to FALSE.

Usage

.cstr_apply(
  args,
  fun = "list",
  ...,
  trailing_comma = FALSE,
  recurse = TRUE,
  implicit_names = FALSE,
  new_line = TRUE,
  one_liner = FALSE,
  unicode_representation = c("ascii", "latin", "character", "unicode"),
  escape = FALSE
)

Arguments

args

A list of arguments to construct recursively, or code if recurse = FALSE. If elements are named, the arguments will be named in the generated code.

fun

The function name to use to build code of the form "fun(...)"

...

Options passed recursively to the further methods

trailing_comma

Boolean. Whether to leave a trailing comma after the last argument if the code is multiline, some constructors allow it (e.g. tibble::tibble()) and it makes for nicer diffs in version control.

recurse

Boolean. Whether to recursively generate the code to construct args. If FALSE arguments are expected to contain code.

implicit_names

When data is provided, compress calls of the form f(a = a) to f(a)

new_line

Boolean. Forwarded to wrap() to add a line between "fun(" and ")", forced to FALSE if one_liner is TRUE

one_liner

Boolean. Whether to return a one line call.

unicode_representation

By default "ascii", which means only ASCII characters (code point < 128) will be used to construct strings and variable names. This makes sure that homoglyphs (different spaces and other identically displayed unicode characters) are printed differently, and avoid possible unfortunate copy and paste auto conversion issues. "latin" is more lax and uses all latin characters (code point < 256). "character" shows all characters, but not emojis. Finally "unicode" displays all characters and emojis, which is what dput() does.

escape

Boolean. Whether to escape double quotes and backslashes. If FALSE we use single quotes to surround strings (including variable and element names) containing double quotes, and raw strings for strings that contain backslashes and/or a combination of single and double quotes. Depending on unicode_representation escape = FALSE cannot be applied on all strings.

Value

A character vector of code

Examples

a <- 1
.cstr_apply(list(a=a), "foo")
#> [1] "foo(a = 1)"
.cstr_apply(list(a=a), "foo", data = list(a=1))
#> [1] "foo(a = a)"
.cstr_apply(list(a=a), "foo", data = list(a=1), implicit_names = TRUE)
#> [1] "foo(a)"
.cstr_apply(list(b=a), "foo", data = list(a=1), implicit_names = TRUE)
#> [1] "foo(b = a)"
.cstr_apply(list(a="c(1,2)"), "foo")
#> [1] "foo(a = \"c(1,2)\")"
.cstr_apply(list(a="c(1,2)"), "foo", recurse = FALSE)
#> [1] "foo(a = c(1,2))"
