cli_div {cli}

Generic CLI container

Description

See containers. A cli_div container is special, because it may add new themes, that are valid within the container.

Usage

cli_div(
  id = NULL,
  class = NULL,
  theme = NULL,
  .auto_close = TRUE,
  .envir = parent.frame()
)

Arguments

id

Element id, a string. If NULL, then a new id is generated and returned.

class

Class name, sting. Can be used in themes.

theme

A custom theme for the container. See themes.

.auto_close

Whether to close the container, when the calling function finishes (or .envir is removed, if specified).

.envir

Environment to evaluate the glue expressions in. It is also used to auto-close the container if .auto_close is TRUE.

Details

Custom themes

d <- cli_div(theme = list(h1 = list(color = "cyan",
                                    "font-weight" = "bold")))
cli_h1("Custom title")
cli_end(d)

#>                                                                                 
#> Custom title                                                                    

Auto-closing

By default a cli_div() is closed automatically when the calling frame exits.

div <- function() {
  cli_div(class = "tmp", theme = list(.tmp = list(color = "yellow")))
  cli_text("This is yellow")
}
div()
cli_text("This is not yellow any more")

#> This is yellow                                                                  
#> This is not yellow any more
