opts_hooks: Hooks for code chunk options

In knitr: A General-Purpose Package for Dynamic Report Generation in R

Hooks for code chunk options

Description

Like knit_hooks, this object can be used to set hook functions to manipulate chunk options.

Usage

opts_hooks

Format

An object of class list of length 7.

Details

For every code chunk, if the chunk option named, say, FOO, is not NULL, and a hook function with the same name has been set via opts_hooks$set(FOO = function(options) { options }) (you can manipuate the options argument in the function and return it), the hook function will be called to update the chunk options.
