# All tidy NSE functions like quo() unquote on capture:
quo(list(!!(1 + 2)))
# expr_interp() is meant to provide the same functionality when you
# have a formula or expression that might contain unquoting
# operators:
f <- ~list(!!(1 + 2))
expr_interp(f)
# Note that only the outer formula is unquoted (which is a reason
# to use expr_interp() as early as possible in all user-facing
# functions):
f <- ~list(~!!(1 + 2), !!(1 + 2))
expr_interp(f)
# Another purpose for expr_interp() is to interpolate a closure's
# body. This is useful to inline a function within another. The
# important limitation is that all formal arguments of the inlined
# function should be defined in the receiving function:
other_fn <- function(x) toupper(x)
fn <- expr_interp(function(x) {
x <- paste0(x, "_suffix")
!!! body(other_fn)
})
fn
fn("foo")
# }
