retrieve_appdata: Retrieve 'KinPairData' object from appdata (single)

In kindisperse: Simulate and Estimate Close-Kin Dispersal Kernels

Description

This function is part of a suite of functions handling the interface between the kindisperse app & R package. Due to how shiny's interactive programming works, ordinary objects are not visible to the reactive functions embedded in the app. The solution implemented here is to construct a custom environment, env_appdata, that is accessible within the app and outside of it.

This function accesses the app interface environment and retrieves an object (typically of class KinPairData or KinPairSimulation) with the name nm, making it accessible from within our outside the app. This can be used to load simulation objects that were saved from the interface while using the app into the regular R environment (after closing the app). (The app uses this function internally to load objects from the interface into its own internal environment for display & processing.)

Usage

retrieve_appdata(nm)

Arguments

nm	character. Name of item as stored in appdata

Value

Returns KinPairData object accessible by name nm
