assign_defaults(fun)

fun

A function object or a character string naming the function. See formals for details.

The goal is to make it easier to walk through the function body as top-level code for development and debugging. Arguments with no defaults and ... are silently ignored. In order for this to work, the function needs to be defined through one of these methods:

RStudio: Run the current function definition: With cursor in the function, do Ctrl+Alt+F (Windows/Linux) or Command+Option+F (Mac).
Source the file with function definition: Visit file in RStudio editor and do Ctrl+Shift+S (Windows/Linux) or Command+Shift+S (Mac). Or use source().
devtools::load_all(): Sensible if function is part of a package and you're developing with devtools.
library(...): Sensible if function is an exported function in an installed package.
