Keybindings

rstudio_bindings.json

in ~/.R/rstudio/keybindings/rstudio_bindings.json:

{
    "activateTerminal": "Ctrl+3",
    "insertAssignmentOperator": "Ctrl+'",
    "insertPipeOperator": "Ctrl+Shift+'",
    "goToDefinition": "Ctrl+Shift+J"
}

addins.json

}

shrcts.yaml

using {shrtcts}.

in ~/shrtcts.yml:

- Name: Source ./packages.R
  Binding: |
    cat(glue::glue('> source(\"./packages.R\")\n\n'))
    source("./packages.R")
  Interactive: true
- Name: Output symbol at cursor
  Binding: |
    target <- mmmisc::rs_get_symbol_at_cursor(rstudioapi::getActiveDocumentContext())
    cat(glue::glue("> {target}\n\n"))
    eval(as.symbol(target))
  Interactive: true
- Name: Thead at symbol at cursor
  Binding: |
    target <- mmmisc::rs_get_symbol_at_cursor(rstudioapi::getActiveDocumentContext())
    eval(parse(text = glue::glue("t(head({target}))")))
  Interactive: true

QA Stuff:

• Shortcuts made with Garrick Aden-Buie's {shrtcts}
• {drake} manual
• Will Landau's rOpenSci community call
• {drake} for new R users? I didn't give a good answer to this in the talk. Like I mention in 'The {drake} post':

Building comfort with writing functions by forcing yourself to do it more often would be a great stepping stone to a workflow like this.

Anyone know any good resources for learning how to make R functions?
