checkmate (version 1.6.1)

checkEnvironment: Check if an argument is an environment

Description

Check if an argument is an environment

Usage

checkEnvironment(x, contains = character(0L))

assertEnvironment(x, contains = character(0L), .var.name)

testEnvironment(x, contains = character(0L))

expect_environment(x, contains = character(0L), info = NULL, label = NULL)

Arguments

x
[any] Object to check.
contains
[character] Vector of object names expected in the environment. Defaults to character(0).
.var.name
[character(1)] Name for x. Defaults to a heuristic to determine the name using deparse and substitute.
info
[character(1)] Extra information to be included in the message for the testthat reporter. See expect_that.
label
[character(1)] Same as .var.name, but passed down to expect_that.

Value

  • Depending on the function prefix: If the check is successful, all functions return TRUE. If the check is not successful, assertEnvironment throws an error message, testEnvironment returns FALSE, checkEnvironment returns a string with the error message. The function expect_environment will return an expectation.
