search_text: Search for text in R files

In DagHjermann/rmann:

Description

This function searches for text in text files with (by default) R and Rmd extension.

Usage

search_text(string, dir = ".", extension = c("R", "Rmd"), pattern = NULL,
  fixed = FALSE, ignore.case = TRUE, deep = FALSE)

Arguments

string	text string to search for. If fixed = FALSE (the default), regular expressions may be used
dir	directory (by default, the working directory)
extension	file extension of files to search, by default .R and .Rmd
pattern	if you want to search for files with a particular name (takes presedence over extension)
fixed	if TRUE, the literal string will be searched for; if FALSE (the default), regular expressions may be used (see ?grep)
ignore.case	if TRUE (default), character case will be ignored (i.e., if you search for "Md" the function will search for "md", "mD" and "MD" as well)
deep	if TRUE, it will also search in subdirectories

Examples

search_text("Mod. 1")
search_text("image.plot(", "H:/Documents/seksjon 214/2015_01_FjordBloom/Analyser", fixed = TRUE, deep = TRUE)
# Use fixed = TRUE when the search text contains e.g. parantheses:
search_text("save(", fixed = TRUE)
