Hi All, I wish everyone a happy new year.
I have the following code: -- cut -- modules <- c("t_calculate_RFM_model.R", "t_count_na.R", "t_export_table_2_xls.R", "t_find_duplicates_in_variable.R", "t_find_originals_and_duplicates.R", "t_frequencies.R", "t_inspect_dataset.R", "t_merge_variables.R", "t_openxlsx_shortcuts.r", "t_rename_variables.R", "t_select_chunks.R") toolbox <- new.env(parent = emptyenv()) for (file in modules) { source(file = file.path( c_path_full$modules, # path to modules file), echo = TRUE) } -- cut -- I would like to know how I can source the modules into the newly created environment called "toolbox"? I had a look at the help file for ?source but this function can read in only in the current environment or the global environment (= default). I tried also the following -- cut -- for (file in modules)) { do.call( what = "source", args = list( file = file.path(c_path_full$modules, file), echo = TRUE ), envir = toolbox ) } -- cut -- But this did not work, i. e. it did not load the modules into the environment "toolbox" but into the .GlobalEnv. I also had a look at "assign", but assign() askes for a name of an object in quotes. This way I could not figure out how to use it in a loop or function to name the element in "toolbox" after the modules names: assign("t_add_sheet", t_add_sheet, envir = toolbox) # works assign(quote(t_add_sheet), t_add_sheet, envir = toolbox) # does NOT work assign(as.name(t_add_sheet), t_add_sheet, envir = toolbix) # does NOT work Is there a way to load the modules directly into the "toolbox" environment?
