GitHub - sahilseth/params: Simplify parameters

sahilseth.github.io/params

Setting/loading and extracting various options from/into the R environment

A package level alternative for options and getOptions, to prevent cluttering the space.

• load from files: ability to store all default options as a tab delimited OR comma delimited files
• check options: if a option relates to a file path, automatically check if it exists
• embeddable set OR retrieve multiple options as list
• clean: print all or few options as a pretty table

• set_opts(): set options into a custom environment
• get_opts(): retrieve options from a custom environment
• load_opts(): Read a tab/comma delimited file using read_sheet() and load them using set_opts()
• new_opts(): create a options manager (to be used in a R package etc...)
• print.opts(): print options as a pretty table, used by get_opts()

Setting up some options

library(params)
set_opts(
	name = "John",
	verbose = TRUE, 
	my_dir = "~/mypath")
get_opts()	

Retrieving all options using get_opts()

name            value        
--------------  -------------
default_regex   (.*)         
my_conf_path    ~/flowr/conf 
my_dir          ~/mypath     
my_path         ~/flowr      
my_tool_exe     /usr/bin/ls  
name            John        
verbose         TRUE  

Retrieving a specific option

get_opts("my_dir")

Loading several options from a conf file

conf = system.file("conf/params.conf", package = "params")
load_opts(conf)

Nested options, re-use options as part of other options

• This feature is based on logic-less templating using a R implementation of mustache.
• Say we define two options first_name and last_name; to create full_name, either we could again use the actual values or first and last names or define full_name as {{{first_name}}} {{{last_name}}}

set_opts(first = "John", last = "Doe",
	full = "{{{first}}} {{{last}}}")
get_opts('full')
"John Doe"

• both set_opts and load_opts, support auto-complete
• this is especially useful in case of paths, and is really inspired by BASH environment variable system

Params creates a environment object and stores all parameters in that object. Thus multiple packages using params packages may be loaded each with a separate set of options.

Setup: One liner to to be included in a package !

The above object provides three functions to load, set and fetch params:

• myopts$get()
• myopts$set()
• myopts$load()

## stable version from CRAN
install.packages("params") 

## latest, development version
devtools::install_github("sahilseth/params")

This package is under active-development, you may watch for changes using the watch link above.

Here is a example conf file::

## ----------------------- p a r a m s     config ------------------------ ##
## the file by default, sits in the R pacakge
## --------------------------------------------------------------------- ##

## Following lines, as a tab delimited table, with two columns
## Always use load_conf(); after editing this file !

## options ending with path, exe or dir are checked for existence. file.exists
my_path	~/flowr
my_tool_exe	/usr/bin/ls
my_dir	path/to/a/folder


## you can define nested options
## these are parsed line by line

my_conf_path	{{{my_path}}}/conf

## --- all options are parsed as chracter
default_regex	(.*)
