Description

Add a snippet to a .snippets file.

Usage

snippet_add(name, text, language = "r", path = snippets_path(language))

Arguments

name	of the snippet to add
text	text of the snippet to add, as a character vector
language	language of the snippet. Choices are "r", "c_cpp", "html", "css", "java", "javascript", "python", and "sql". Ignored if path is specified.

Details

Note that a .snippets file for a language may not yet exist. If it does not exist, go to Preferences->Code->Edit Snippets in RStudio, make a trivial change to the language of choice (for example, a new empty line), and click Save. This will create the language file in ~/.R/snippets/<language>.snippets with defaults included.
