plumber2 (version 0.2.0)

get_opts: Retrieve options for creating a plumber2 api

Description

You can provide options for your plumber2 api which will be picked up when you create the API with api(). Options can be set either through the internal options() functionality, or by setting environment variables. In the former case, the name of the option must be prefixed with "plumber2.", in the latter case the variable name must be in upper case and prefixed with "PLUMBER2_". If the option is stored as an environment variable then the value is cast to the type giving in default. See the docs for api() for the default values of the different options.

Usage

get_opts(x, default = NULL)
all_opts()

Value

For get_opts The value of x, if any, or default. For all_opts() a named list of all the options that are set

Arguments

x

The name of the option

default

The default value, if x is not set

plumber2 options

The following options are currently recognized by plumber2. They are all read at creation time and have a parallel argument in api() where you can also see their default values. This means that changing an option after creation/during running will have no effect.

• host: The address to serve the server from

• port: The port to use for the server

• docType: The ui to use for serving OpenAPI documentation

• docPath: The path to serve the documentation from

• rejectMissingMethods: Should requests to paths that doesn't have a handler for the specific method automatically be rejected with a 405 Method Not Allowed response

• ignoreTrailingSlash: Should the trailing slash of a path be ignored when adding handlers and handling requests

• maxRequestSize: The maximum allowed size of request bodies

• sharedSecret: A shared secret the request must contain to be permitted

• compressionLimit: The threshold for response size before automatic compression is used

• async: The default async engine to use

Examples

# Using `options()`
old_opts <- options(plumber2.port = 9889L)
get_opts("port")
options(old_opts)

# Using environment variables
old_env <- Sys.getenv("PLUMBER2_PORT")
Sys.setenv(PLUMBER2_PORT = 9889)

## If no default is provided the return value is a string
get_opts("port")

## Provide a default to hint at the options type
get_opts("port", 8080L)

Sys.setenv(PLUMBER2_PORT = old_env)
