In MansMeg/msgProgressBar: Reference class for progress bar using message()

msgProgressBar

msgProgressBar is an equivalent to use txtProgressBar but uses message()instead of cat to print out the progress bar. This is good to use in R packages or in functions where one would like to supresse the progressbar using suppressMessages().

Installation

Currently the package is not on CRAN. Please install directly from github:

devtools::install_github("MansMeg/msgProgressBar")

Usage

> test_bar <- function(i = 10){
+   bar <- msgProgressBar::msgProgressBar(i)
+   for(j in 1:i){
+     bar$increment()
+     Sys.sleep(4/i)
+     }
+   }
> test_bar(100)
