partition_chunk {knitr}

R Documentation

Partition chunk options from the code chunk body

Description

Chunk options can be written in special comments (e.g., after ⁠#|⁠ for R code chunks) inside a code chunk. This function partitions these options from the chunk body.

Usage

partition_chunk(engine, code)

Arguments

engine	The name of the language engine (to determine the appropriate comment character).
code	A character vector (lines of code).

Value

A list with the following items:

options

The parsed options (if any) as a list.

src

The part of the input that contains the options.

code

The part of the input that contains the code.

Note

Chunk options must be written on continuous lines (i.e., all lines must start with the special comment prefix such as ⁠#|⁠) at the beginning of the chunk body.

Examples

# parse yaml-like items
yaml_like = c("#| label: mine", "#| echo: true", "#| fig.width: 8", "#| foo: bar",
    "1 + 1")
writeLines(yaml_like)
knitr::partition_chunk("r", yaml_like)

# parse CSV syntax
csv_like = c("#| mine, echo = TRUE, fig.width = 8, foo = 'bar'", "1 + 1")
writeLines(csv_like)
knitr::partition_chunk("r", csv_like)
