Can RStudio automatically generate an roxygen template for a function?
r, roxygen, roxygen2, rstudio
Solution
(Converting @Crops comment into a full answer)
In RStudio v0.99 there is a new option under the "Code" menu for `.R` files: "Insert Roxygen Skeleton". There is an image of it in RStudio's blog post about v0.99 preview.
Problem
Does RStudio support any automated roxygen template creation? In Emacs-ESS, `C-x C-o` will produce an roxygen template for a function. For example, it will automagically convert this: ``` foo <- function(x,y) x+y ``` into this: ``` ##' .. content for \description{} (no empty lines) .. ##' ##' .. content for \details{} .. ##' @title ##' @param x ##' @param y ##' @return ##' @author David foo <- function(x,y) x+y ``` Does similar functionality exist within RStudio? updates - as of ESS 12.09-2, the command has been changed to `C-c C-o C-o` - this feature has been implemented in Rstudio: CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+R
