rlang::abort() inside of evaluate().Setting ACTIONS_STEP_DEBUG=1 (as in a failing GHA workflow) will
automatically set log_echo and log_warning to TRUE (#175).
evaluate works on R 3.6.0 once again.
evaluate() improvements:
Now terminates on the first error in a multi-expression input, i.e.
1;stop('2');3 will no longer evaluate the third component. This
matches console behaviour more closely.
Calls from conditions emitted by top-level code are automatically stripped (#150).
Result has a class (evaluate_evaluation/list) with a basic print method.
Plots created before messages/warnings/errors are correctly captured (#28).
Handler improvements:
The default value handler now evaluates print() in a child of the
evaluation environment. This largely makes evaluate easier to test, but
should make defining S3 methods for print a little easier (#192).
The source output handler is now passed the entire complete input
expression, not just the first component.
evalute(include_timing) has been deprecated. I can't find any use of it on
GitHub, and it adds substantial code complexity for little gain.
is.value() has been removed since it tests for an object that evaluate
never creates.
New local_reproducible_output() helper that sets various options and env
vars to help ensure consistency of output across environments.
parse_all() adds a \n to the end of every line, even the last one if it
didn't have one in the input. Additionally, it no longer has a default
method, which will generate better errors if you pass in something unexpected.
New trim_intermediate_plots() drops intermediate plots to reveal the
complete/final plot (#206).
watchout() is no longer exported; it's really an implementation detail that
should never have been leaked to the public interface.
source output handler can now take two arguments (the unparsed src
and the parsed call) and choose to affect the displayed source.Prevent existing plots from leaking into evaluate() results (thanks, @dmurdoch, yihui/knitr#2297).
If the environment variable R_EVALUATE_BYPASS_MESSAGES is set to true, the arguments keep_message and keep_warning of evaluate() will be set to NA, regardless of user input, which means messages and warnings will not be captured by evaluate(). This provides a possibility to force logging messages and warnings (thanks, @slodge, yihui/yihui.org#1458).
plot_calls() that made the examples of recordGraphics fail to run on its help page (thanks, Kurt Hornik).evaluate() gains log_echo and log_warning arguments. When set to TRUE
these cause code and warnings (respectively) to be immediately emitted to
stderr(). This is useful for logging in unattended environments (#118).
Improved the error message when users accidentally called closeAllConnections() (thanks, @guslipkin, quarto-dev/quarto-cli#5214).
keep_message and keep_warning of evaluate() can take the value NA now, which means evaluate() will not capture the messages and they will be sent to the console. This is equivalent to the FALSE value before v0.19 (thanks, @gadenbuie, https://github.com/yihui/yihui.org/discussions/1458).In evaluate(), keep_message and keep_warning will completely drop messages and warnings, respectively, when their values are FALSE. Previously messages would still be emitted (to the console) even if they take FALSE values.
Fixed the bug that parse_all() fails with line directives (thanks, @ArcadeAntics, #114).
ggplot2::qplot().new_output_handler() gains a calling_handlers argument. These are passed to withCallingHandlers() before evaluate() captures any conditions.
Fixed #106: do not assume that is.atomic(NULL) returns TRUE (thanks, @mmaechler).
persp, before.plot.new, and before.grid.newpage set by users will be respected throughout the R session (thanks, @KKPMW, #96).Fix for regression introduced in 0.10.1 in parse_all.call() (fixes #77)
evaluate() now respects options(warn >= 2); all warnings are turned into errors (#81)
Added option for the evaluate function to include timing information of ran commands. This information will be subsequently rendered by the replay. Example usage: evaluate::replay(evaluate::evaluate('Sys.sleep(1)', include_timing = TRUE))
Added a new function flush_console() to emulate flush.console() in evaluate() (#61).
Added a inject_funs() function to create functions in the environment passed to the envir argument of evaluate().
allow_error to parse_all() to allow syntactical errors in R source code when allow_error = TRUE; this means evaluate(stop_on_error = 0 or 1) will no longer stop on syntactical errors but returns a list of source code and the error object instead. This can be useful to show syntactical errors for pedagogical purposes.filename to evaluate() and parse_all() (thanks, @flying-sheep, #58).Plots are no longer recorded when the current graphical device has been changed, which may introduce issues like yihui/knitr#824.
parse_all() can parse R code that contains multibyte characters correctly now (#49, yihui/knitr#988)
Actually use the text and graphics in new_output_handler
Multiple expressions separated by ; on the same line can be printed as expected when the result returned is visible, e.g. both x and y will be printed when the source code is x; y. In previous versions, only y is printed. (thanks, Bill Venables)
fixed yihui/knitr#600: when the last expression in the code is a comment, the previous incomplete plot was not captured
the empty plots produced by strwidth(), strheight(), and clip() are no longer recorded
evaluate() no longer records warnings in case of options(warn = -1); see yihui/knitr#610
for 'output_handler' in evaluate(), visible values from the 'value' handler will be saved to the output list; this makes it possible for users to save the original values instead of their printed side effects; this change will not affect those who use the default output handlers (#40, thanks, Gabriel Becker)
the 'value' handler in new_output_handler() may take an additional argument that means if the value is visible or not; this makes it possible to save the invisible values as well (#41, thanks, Joroen Ooms)
fixed #25: plots can be correctly recorded under a complex layout now (#25, thanks, Jack Tanner and Andy Barbour)
fixed yihui/knitr#582: evaluate() misclassified some plot changes as "par changes" and removed some plots when it should not; now it is better at identifying plot changes dur to par() (thanks, Keith Twombley)
Perspective plots from persp() are captured now (thanks to Harvey Lime and Yihui Xie)
If an error occurs during printing a visible value, evaluate will halt on a cryptic error "operator is invalid for atomic vectors" (#26, fixed by Yihui Xie)
If the internal connection was accidentally closed by the user, a more informative message will show up (#23)
Now the graphical device will always try to record graphics by default (when new_device = TRUE) (#34)
Some empty and incomplete plots caused by par() or layout() will be filtered out correctly for R 3.0 (#35)
Added output_handler argument to evaluate. Should be a output_handler object, which is a list of functions for handling each type of result, prior to printing of visible return values. This allows clients to override the console-like printing of values, while still processing them in the correct temporal context. The other handlers are necessary to convey the correct ordering of the output. This essentially provides stream-based processing, as an alternative to the existing deferred processing.
New option, stop_on_error which controls behaviour when errors occur. The default value, 0, acts like you've copied and pasted the code into the console, and continues to execute all code. 1 will stop the code execution and return the results of evaluation up to that point, and 2 will raise an error.
Compound expressions like x <- 10; x are now evaluated completely.
Chinese characters on windows now work correctly (thanks to Yihui Xie)
Graphics and output interleaved correctly when generated from a loop or other compound statements
By default, evaluate will now open a new graphics device and clean it up afterwards. To suppress that behaviour use new_device = FALSE
use show to display S4 objects.
replace deprecated .Internal(eval.with.vis) with correct withVisible
evaluate gains debug argument
test_package to avoid problems with latest version of testthatImport stringr instead of depending on it.
Test plot recording only in the presence of interactive devices.
try_capture_stack and create_traceback do a much better job of removing infrastructure calls from the captured traceback
visible results are automatically evaluated and their outputs are captured. This is particularly important for lattice and ggplot graphics, which otherwise require special handling. It also correctly captures warnings, errors and messages raised by the print method.
