I wrote a function for a package optiRumcalled generatePDFthat wraps knitr:::knit2pdfto add the addition of date components and some other bits and parts.
This usually works fine, but I found an odd case where data.tablefunctionality errors .
Example file:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
<<>>=
library("data.table")
df<-data.table(expand.grid(seq(10000,200000,1000),seq(10000,200000,2000),seq(100000,400000,5000)))
setnames(df,c("Var1","Var2","Var3"),c("ad","fm","value"))
df<-df[ad+fm<value*.9&ad+fm>=value*.6]
df<-df[,`P Value`:=paste0(round(value/1000,2),"k")]
df<-df[,`ad Amount`:=paste0(round(ad/1000,2),"k")]
df<-df[,ratio:=(ad+fm)/value]
@
<<>>=
ggplot(df[value %in% seq(100000,400000,50000)&fm==50000],aes(x=ratio,y=ad,group=value,colour=`P Value`))+
geom_line()
@
\end{document}
When I use optiRum:::generatePDF, for example.
install.packages("optiRum")
library("optiRum")
generatePDF( srcname="sample" ,destname="sample")
I get the following kinds of errors:
# Error: object 'ad' not found
knit2pdfIt works fine on it. If I take the code generatePDFand make it a global function and run it again, it also works great. As far as I know, I am not doing anything strange in terms of volume.
Does anyone have any tips on how to resolve?
generatePDF <- function (srcpath = getwd(), srcname, destpath = getwd(), destname,
DATED = FALSE, CLEANUP = TRUE, ...)
{
require("knitr")
stopifnot(is.character(srcpath), is.character(srcname), is.character(destpath),
is.character(destname), is.logical(DATED), is.logical(CLEANUP),
file.exists(file.path(srcpath, paste0(srcname, ".Rnw"))))
knit2pdf(input = file.path(srcpath, paste0(srcname, ".Rnw")),
output = file.path(destpath, paste0(destname, ifelse(DATED,
format(Sys.Date(), "%Y%m%d"), ""), ".tex")), compiler = "pdflatex")
if (CLEANUP)
file.remove(dir(path = destpath, pattern = "*aux|*out|*toc",
full.names = TRUE))
}
Update
:
in particular ways. See help(":="). Check is.data.table(DT) is TRUE.
