errorist (version 0.1.0)

enable_warning_shim: Enable and Disable Warning or Error Capture

Description

Add or remove a listener to top-level task callbacks that checks for whether a new warning or error occurs and then triggers a search browser.

Usage

enable_warning_shim(
  warning_search_func = getOption("errorist.warning", searcher::search_google)
)
disable_warning_shim()
enable_error_shim(
  error_search_func = getOption("errorist.error", searcher::search_google)
)
disable_error_shim()

Arguments

error_search_func, warning_search_func

The search function from searcher that should be called when an error or warning occurs. By default, searches are routed through Google.

Error Shim

The error shim uses R's default handler for errors set by specifying a function for error in options().

Warning Shim

For the warning shim, a top-level task callback added to the environment via base::addTaskCallback(). This causes the warning handler to fire each time a new function call occurs in R regardless of whether it triggers an error.
