Re: [Rd] Wish List: base::source() + Add Execution Time Argument

There is a simple way to achieve something similar: one can add a time stamp to each line of output, e.g. using "ts" command from "moreutils". Tomas On 12/21/2017 06:45 PM, Jim Hester wrote: R does provide the addTaskCallback / taskCallbackManager to run a callback function after every top

Re: [Rd] Wish List: base::source() + Add Execution Time Argument

R does provide the addTaskCallback / taskCallbackManager to run a callback function after every top level command. However there is not an equivalent interface that would be run _before_ each command, which would make it possible to time of top level calls and provide other execution measurements.

Re: [Rd] Wish List: base::source() + Add Execution Time Argument

Is source() the right place for this? It may be, but we've had customers who would like this sort of thing done for commands entered by hand. And there are those who want a description of any "non-triivial" objects created in .GlobalEnv by each expression, ... Do they need a way to wrap each

Re: [Rd] Wish List: base::source() + Add Execution Time Argument

I did not know "progress" package existed, thank you Iñaki. However, something like that would be nice to have by default in source(), just something to add to R's "wish list", so that everybody can benefit from it without extra-packages, as most of us I suppose we will spend all day simply doing

Re: [Rd] Wish List: base::source() + Add Execution Time Argument

But by statement in the source file, I mean, for knowing during the execution how much time is taking, without having to wait till the end. 2017-12-21 13:06 GMT+01:00 Iñaki Úcar : > 2017-12-21 12:46 GMT+01:00 Juan Telleria : > > Dear R Developers, > > >

[Rd] Wish List: base::source() + Add Execution Time Argument

Dear R Developers, Adding to source() base function a Timer which indicates the execution time of the source code would be a very well welcome feature, and in my opinion not difficult to implement as an additional funtion argument. The source(timing = TRUE) function shall execute internally the
