pformat_parse: Preparses a format string

In lurodrigo/pformat: pformat brings powerful string formatting to the R language.

Description

Parses a format string into an internal representation compatible with pformat().

Usage

pformat_parse(format_string)

Arguments

format_string

the format string

Details

This function actually only parses a "layer" of the format string markup. Recursive format strings depend on data, and thus can't be completely parsed yet. In these cases, pformat_parse() will still be called by pformat() with format specifications needing expanding.

Value

an object of class pformat.compiled containing an internal representation of the format string.

Examples

pformat_parse("{} {}")
pformat_parse("{1} {2}")
