find_in_path {box}R Documentation

Find a module’s source location

Description

Find a module’s source location

Usage

find_in_path(spec, base_paths)

Arguments

spec

a mod_spec.

base_paths

a character vector of paths to search the module in, in order of preference.

Details

A module is physically represented in the file system either by ‘‹spec_name(spec)›.r’ or by ‘‹spec_name(spec)›/__init__.r’, in that order of preference in case both exist. File extensions are case insensitive to allow for R’s obsession with capital-R extensions (but lower-case are given preference, and upper-case file extensions are discouraged).

Value

find_in_path returns a mod_info that specifies the module source location.
