env_unbind: Remove bindings from an environment

Description

env_unbind() is the complement of env_bind(). Like env_has(), it ignores the parent environments of env by default. Set inherit to TRUE to track down bindings in parent environments.

Usage

env_unbind(env = caller_env(), nms, inherit = FALSE)

Value

The input object env with its associated environment modified in place, invisibly.

Arguments

env

An environment.

nms

A character vector of binding names to remove.

inherit

Whether to look for bindings in the parent environments.

Examples

Run this code
env <- env(foo = 1, bar = 2)
env_has(env, c("foo", "bar"))

# Remove bindings with `env_unbind()`
env_unbind(env, c("foo", "bar"))
env_has(env, c("foo", "bar"))

# With inherit = TRUE, it removes bindings in parent environments
# as well:
parent <- env(empty_env(), foo = 1, bar = 2)
env <- env(parent, foo = "b")

env_unbind(env, "foo", inherit = TRUE)
env_has(env, c("foo", "bar"))
env_has(env, c("foo", "bar"), inherit = TRUE)
