spot_pkgs {funspotr}

Spot Packages

Description

Extract all pkg called in either library(pkg), require(pkg) requireNamespace("pkg") or pkg::fun(). Will not identify packages loaded in other ways not typically done in interactive R scripts (e.g. relying on a DESCRIPTION file for a pkg or something like source("lib-calls.R")). Inspiration: blogdown#647.

Usage

spot_pkgs(
  file_path,
  show_explicit_funs = FALSE,
  copy_local = TRUE,
  as_yaml_tags = FALSE
)

Arguments

file_path

String of path to file of interest.

show_explicit_funs

In cases where a function is called explicitly, show both the package dependency and the function together. For example a script containing dplyr::select() (as opposed to ⁠library(dplyr); select()⁠) would have spot_pkgs(show_explicit_funs = TRUE) return the item as "dplyr::select" rather than just "dplyr")

copy_local

Logical, default is TRUE. If changed to FALSE will not copy to a local temporary folder prior to doing analysis. Many processes require file to already be a .R file and for the file to exist locally, hence this should usually be set to TRUE.

as_yaml_tags

Logical, default is FALSE. If set to TRUE flattens and puts into a format convenient for pasting in "tags" section of YAML header of a Rmd document for a blogdown post.

Details

In cases where show_explicit_funs = TRUE and there are explicit calls in the package, "pkg:fun" is returned instead.

Packages are extracted solely based on text – not whether the package actually exists or not. Hence even packages that you do not have installed on your machine but show-up in the script will be returned in the character vector.

Value

Character vector of all packages loaded in file.

Examples

library(funspotr)

file_lines <- "
library(dplyr)
require(tidyr)
library(madeUpPkg)

as_tibble(mpg) %>%
  group_by(class) %>%
  nest() %>%
  mutate(stats = purrr::map(data,
                            ~lm(cty ~ hwy, data = .x)))

made_up_fun()
"

file_output <- tempfile(fileext = ".R")
writeLines(file_lines, file_output)

spot_pkgs(file_output)

# To view `purrr::map` as an explicit call
spot_pkgs(file_output, show_explicit_funs = TRUE)

# To output for blogdown post YAML header tags
cat(spot_pkgs(file_output, as_yaml_tags = TRUE))
