assert_expr_list: Is an Argument a List of Expressions?

Description

Checks if the argument is a list of expressions.

Usage

assert_expr_list(
  arg,
  required_elements = NULL,
  named = FALSE,
  optional = FALSE,
  arg_name = rlang::caller_arg(arg),
  message = NULL,
  class = "assert_expr_list",
  call = parent.frame()
)

Value

The function throws an error if arg is not a list of expressions. Otherwise, the input it returned invisibly.

Arguments

arg

A function argument to be checked

Default value

none

required_elements

A character vector of names that must be present in arg

Default value

NULL

named

If set to TRUE, an error is issued if not all elements of the list are named.

Default value

FALSE

optional

Is the checked argument optional? If set to FALSE and arg is NULL then an error is thrown.

Default value

FALSE

arg_name

string indicating the label/symbol of the object being checked.

Default value

rlang::caller_arg(arg)

message

string passed to cli::cli_abort(message). When NULL, default messaging is used (see examples for default messages). "{arg_name}" can be used in messaging.

Default value

NULL

class

Subclass of the condition.

call

The execution environment of a currently running function, e.g. call = caller_env(). The corresponding function call is retrieved and mentioned in error messages as the source of the error.

You only need to supply call when throwing a condition from a helper function which wouldn't be relevant to mention in the message.

Can also be NULL or a defused function call to respectively not display any call or hard-code a code to display.

example_fun <- function(vars) {
  assert_expr_list(vars)
}
example_fun(exprs(DTHDOM = "AE", DTHSEQ = AESEQ))

try(example_fun(exprs("AE", DTSEQ = AESEQ, !!list("a"), !!list("a"))))
