These options will be used on functions, i.e. objects of type "closure", "special" and "builtin".

Usage

opts_function(
  constructor = c("function", "as.function", "new_function"),
  ...,
  environment = TRUE,
  srcref = FALSE,
  trim = NULL
)

Arguments

constructor

String. Name of the function used to construct the object, see Details section.

...

Additional options used by user defined constructors through the opts object

environment

Boolean. Whether to reconstruct the function's environment.

srcref

Boolean. Whether to attempt to reconstruct the function's srcref.

trim

NULL or integerish. Maximum of lines showed in the body before it's trimmed, replacing code with .... Note that it will necessarily produce code that doesn't reproduce the input, but it will parse and evaluate without failure.

Value

An object of class <constructive_options/constructive_options_function>

Details

Depending on constructor, we construct the object as follows:

  • "function" (default): Build the object using a standard function() {} definition. This won't set the environment by default, unless environment is set to TRUE. If a srcref is available, if this srcref matches the function's definition, and if trim is left NULL, the code is returned from using the srcref, so comments will be shown in the output of construct(). In the rare case where the ast body of the function contains non syntactic nodes this constructor cannot be used and falls back to the "as.function" constructor.

  • "as.function" : Build the object using a as.function() call. back to data.frame().

  • "new_function" : Build the object using a rlang::new_function() call.
