pipefittr
To take nested function calls and convert them to a more readable form using magrittr's pipes.
Examples:
e.g. (example taken from Hadley Wickham)
calling the add-in on:
foo_foo <- little_bunny()
bop_on( scoop_up( hop_through(foo_foo, forest), field_mouse ), head )
will return:
foo_foo <- little_bunny()
foo_foo %>%
hop_through(forest) %>%
scoop_up(field_mouse)
%>% bop_on(head)
installation
# install a dev version using
devtools::install_github("houstonusers/pipefittr")
This should automatically install a Rstudio add-in as well.
to do
another example which does not work currently
ostensibly, the (same?) function would also be able to remedy horrendous situations like this:
tmp_bunny1 <- foo_foo
tmp_bunny2 <- hop_through(tmp_bunny1, forest)
tmp_bunny3 <- scoop_up(tmp_bunny2, field_mouse)
tmp_bunny4 <- bop_on(tmp_bunny3, head)
this would resolve to:
foo_foo <- little_bunny()
tmp_bunny4 <- foo_foo %>%
hop_through(forest) %>%
scoop_up(field_mouse)
%>% bop_on(head)
same as above with the minor difference that it would now be assigned to tmp_bunny4
. It can be up to the user to change that later.
