#' Built-in chunk hooks to extend knitr
#'
#' Hook functions are called when the corresponding chunk options are not
#' \code{NULL} to do additional jobs beside the R code in chunks. This package
#' provides a few useful hooks, which can also serve as examples of how to
#' define chunk hooks in \pkg{knitr}.
#'
#' The function \code{hook_pdfcrop()} calls \code{\link{plot_crop}()} to crop
#' the white margins of PDF plots.
#'
#' The function \code{hook_optipng()} calls the program \command{optipng} to
#' optimize PNG images. Note the chunk option \code{optipng} can be used to
#' provide additional parameters to the program \command{optipng}, e.g.
#' \code{optipng = '-o7'}.
#'
#' The function \code{hook_pngquant()} calls the program \command{pngquant} to
#' optimize PNG images. Note the chunk option \code{pngquant} can be used to
#' provide additional parameters to the program \command{pngquant}, e.g.
#' \code{pngquant = '--speed=1 --quality=0-50'}.
#'
#' The function \code{hook_mogrify()} calls the program \command{mogrify}.  Note
#' the chunk option \code{mogrify} can be used to provide additional parameters
#' to the program \command{mogrify} (with default \code{-trim} to trim PNG
#' files).
#'
#' When the plots are not recordable via \code{grDevices::\link{recordPlot}()}
#' and we save the plots to files manually via other functions (e.g. \pkg{rgl}
#' plots), we can use the chunk hook \code{hook_plot_custom} to help write code
#' for graphics output into the output document.
#'
#' The hook \code{hook_purl()} can be used to write the code chunks to an R
#' script. It is an alternative approach to \code{\link{purl}}, and can be more
#' reliable when the code chunks depend on the execution of them (e.g.
#' \code{\link{read_chunk}()}, or \code{\link{opts_chunk}$set(eval = FALSE)}).
#' To enable this hook, it is recommended to associate it with the chunk option
#' \code{purl}, i.e. \code{knit_hooks$set(purl = hook_purl)}. When this hook is
#' enabled, an R script will be written while the input document is being
#' \code{\link{knit}}. Currently the code chunks that are not R code or have the
#' chunk option \code{purl=FALSE} are ignored. Please note when the cache is
#' turned on (the chunk option \code{cache = TRUE}), no chunk hooks will be
#' executed, hence \code{hook_purl()} will not work, either. To solve this
#' problem, we need \code{cache = 2} instead of \code{TRUE} (see
#' \url{https://yihui.org/knitr/demo/cache/} for the meaning of \code{cache =
#' 2}).
