Roxygen2:在重载R基函数(cor)时记录用作S4的S3类

时间:2017-08-28 11:05:52

标签: r documentation roxygen2

我有以下背景:

我做了重载cor基函数,所以我在我的包.R文件中有以下语句:

#'export
setGeneric("cor")

现在我想为我的对象创建一个特定的函数(类stranger) - 这里为了简单起见我只考虑我的对象是一个data.table,其中一个名为.id的列。< / p>

#' Correlation for stranger objects
#' describeIn cor Correlation method for stranger objects.
setMethod("cor",signature(x="stranger"),function(x, method = c("pearson", "kendall", "spearman")){
  selectMethod("cor","ANY")(x[,-'.id',with=FALSE],y=NULL, use="everything",method=method)
})

如果我理解setGeneric,它依赖于S4类 - 因此signature参数。

但是,我没有使用S4类,而是用简单的旧方法构建我的stranger对象:

buildClass <- function(x,...){
  #... prepare out object as data.table with .ìd column 
  class(out) <- c("stranger", class(out))
  return(out)
}

也就是说,我的对象没有S4课程。 Dispacthing仍然有效:在我的对象上调用cor正确应用专用方法。

我的问题是用ROxygen2正确记录。目前,在加载我的功能时,我会遇到以下消息:

Updating stranger documentation
Loading stranger
Creating a generic function for 'cor' from package 'stats' in package 'stranger'
in method for 'cor' with signature 'x="stranger"': no definition for class "stranger"

我已经仔细阅读过roxygen2上的Hadley插图以及一些似乎与stackoverflow相关的问题,但他们只处理经典的S3机制或纯S4,而我没有setClass的S4构造函数setGeneric依赖于S4。

答案 0 :(得分:1)

您可以将其重新定义为S3泛型并为其定义方法,而不是为cor()设置S4泛型方法。为了说明,我创建了一个只有两个R文件的R包,“buildClass.R”和“cor.R”,转载如下:

<强> buildClass.R:

#' Stranger Class Constructor
#'
#' Put some details about it
#'
#' @param x an object
#'
#' @export
buildClass <- function(x){
    class(x) <- c("stranger", class(x))
    return(x)
}

<强> cor.R

#' Cor
#'
#' Put some details about it
#'
#' @param x an object
#' @param ... other arguments
#'
#' @rdname cor
#' @export
cor <- function(x, ...) {
    UseMethod('cor', x)
}

#' @rdname cor
#' @export
cor.stranger <- function(x, ...) {
    return(1)
}

#' @rdname cor
#' @export
cor.default <- function(x, ...) {
    return(stats::cor(x, ...))
}

然后,如果你加载你的包(在我的案例中命名为“anRpackage”),将警告用户该包掩码stats::cor,但cor.default()的定义方式为stats::cor()调用不属于类stranger的对象:

library(anRpackage)

Attaching package: ‘anRpackage’

The following object is masked from ‘package:stats’:

    cor

set.seed(1234)
regular_mat <- matrix(rnorm(100), nrow = 25)
stranger_mat <- buildClass(regular_mat)
cor(regular_mat)

            [,1]       [,2]        [,3]       [,4]
[1,]  1.00000000  0.1531414 -0.01948986 -0.3737424
[2,]  0.15314141  1.0000000  0.17531423 -0.1752925
[3,] -0.01948986  0.1753142  1.00000000  0.4371213
[4,] -0.37374237 -0.1752925  0.43712127  1.0000000

cor(stranger_mat)
[1] 1

使用默认devtools::check()检查包cran = TRUE时(使用与CRAN使用相同的设置检查“),不会引发任何错误,警告或注释:
