RStudio add-in to add some code snippets, or help with code editing. It is aimed to be used on Windows. It requires RStudio (>= 0.99.1111) and rstudioapi (>= 0.5-1).
Currently it contains following functions:
- Insert and reformat pipe
- Reverse slashes
- Copy data to Clipboard (vectors, tables, arrays, matrices, data frames)
This functionality inserts pipes at the current position(s) of the cursor(s) or replaces all selections. It reformats pipe(s) surroundings to achieve following format:
sub <- data %>%
select(column.1, column.2) %>%
filter(column.1 > x) %>%
group_by(column.1) %>%
summarise(n=n_distinct(column.2)) %>%
ungroup
- exactly one space before %>%
- line cannot start with %>% (unless it is first line of the file).
- It will find last non-empty line before the cursor position.
- new line after %>%
- next line will be indented as the current line is + N spaces;
- where N is dependent on the RStudio settings
- then it's followed by the next word, or it is the end of the line.
This functionality is especially useful, when copying paths in Windows.
It will reverse all slashes either in the selected block(s) of code, or if there is no selection (or only whitespace is selected), it will reverse all slashes in the clipboard and paste it to the current cursor(s) position(s).
At the moment this is Windows only function.
Function will copy the content of the variable 'under the cursor' into the clipboard. It will be represented as a tab separated value for an easy paste to MS Excel.
There is no need to precisely select the name of the variable. Cursor can be placed anywhere in the name, or variable name needs to be first valid name in the code selection. Add-in will adjust the selection. In the case that it is not possible to generate tsv, message will be written to the console. Otherwise tsv will be 'silently' copied to clipboard without any messages.
At the moment following data structures are supported:
Vectors are represented in a horizontal fashion. If they are named, then first row will contain names and second values. If they are unnamed then only one row with values is copied into the clipboard.
Value copied to clipboard will either have M x N or (M+1) x N, M x (N+1) or (M+1) x (N+1) cells, where M and N are matrix dimensions. If matrix has specified columns names and/or rows names than they will be displayed in the first column and/or row.
In the case that both columns' names and rows' names are specified, the content of the top left cell will be constructed from dimensions' names, if they exist; in the following format: Rows names dimension name, backslash, columns names dimension name. Examples below shows all cases. If dimensions are not named, then variable name will be used.
mat.1 <- matrix( 1:9
, nrow=3
, dimnames=list( rows=letters[1:3]
, columns=letters[24:26]
)
)
| rows\columns | x | y | z |

Data frames act as matrices.
1D arrays act as vectors.
2D arrays act as matrices.
3+D arrays will be flatten into a matrix. Matrix will have N+1
columns where N is a number of dimensions and M or M+1 rows, where M is
a product of array dimensions. E.g. if array has following dimensions
dim=c(2, 4, 2), then the output table will have N=3+1=4 columns and
M=242=16 rows. If array dimensions are named, then header row will be added.
First N columns will be take names from dimensions' names and the last column
will be named after variable. Missing names will stay empty.
See examples below.
3D array with defined dimension names. One of the dimension names is missing.

, z=c('x', 'y')
