repo_stash: Quickly store temporary data

In repo: A Data-Centered Data Flow Manager

Description

A very simplified call to put that only requires to specify a variable name.

Usage

repo_stash(object, rename = deparse(substitute(object)))

Arguments

object	The object to store in the repo.
rename	An optional character containing the new name for the item. Otherwise the name of object is used as item's name.

Details

The name parameter is used to search the parent (or a different specified) environment for the actual object to store. Then it is also used as the item name. The reserved tags "stash" and "hide" are set. In case a stashed item by the same name already exists, it is automatically overwritten. In case a non-stashed item by the same name already exists, an error is raised. A different name can be specified through the rename parameter in such cases.

Value

Used for side effects.
