doclisting

doclisting automatically generates itemized lists of methods for a generic function, suitable for inclusion in roxygen2 documentation. Each method links to its help topic, and methods from other packages are clearly labeled.

Installation

You can install the released version from CRAN:

install.packages("doclisting")

Or the development version from GitHub:

pak::pak("hadley/doclisting")

Usage

methods_list() and methods_inline() generate Rd markup listing all methods for a generic:

cat(doclisting::methods_list("mean"))
#> \itemize{
#>   \item \code{\link[=Dates]{Date}}
#>   \item \code{default}
#>   \item \code{\link[=difftime]{difftime}}
#>   \item \code{\link[=DateTimeClasses]{POSIXct}}
#>   \item \code{\link[=DateTimeClasses]{POSIXlt}}
#>   \item \code{quosure} (\pkg{rlang})
#> }
cat(doclisting::methods_inline("mean"))
#> \code{\link[=Dates]{Date}}, \code{default}, \code{\link[=difftime]{difftime}},
#> \code{\link[=DateTimeClasses]{POSIXct}},
#> \code{\link[=DateTimeClasses]{POSIXlt}}, \code{quosure} (\pkg{rlang})

You can use it in roxygen2 documentation in two ways:

• Compute methods when the package is documented (i.e. at devtools::document() time), use inline R code in your roxygen comment:

  #' @description
  #' `r doclisting::methods_list("my_generic")`

  You’ll need to add doclisting to Suggests.

• Compute methods when documentation is rendered (i.e. at ? time), use an Rd code block:

  #' @description
  #' `Rd doclisting::methods_list("my_generic")`

  You’ll need to add doclisting to Imports and add dummy call to methods_list() to eliminate the R CMD check note:

  ignore_unused_imports <- function() {
      doclisting::methods_list
  }
