1 year ago Ah interesting - I didn't know that pluck() functionality worked in map(), so this isn't built into tidytable::map(). pluck() itself isn't implemented in tidytable either.
In general I've decided not to add any more purrr functions to tidytable, so for more complicated use cases (like using pluck()) I would just recommend using purrr. There are a lot of purrr helpers, so it's a pretty slippery slope if I start adding more. In hindsight I'm not positive I would have added map() and just focused on dplyr/tidyr functionality, but it's been exported for so long it's going to stay.
But I'll have to think about this one. It still might be worth adding this functionality to tidytable::map().

I was recently trying the following code...
list1 <- list(l1 = list(a = 1:5, b = 1:10, c = 1:20, d = letters[1:5]), l2 = list(a = 11:15, b = 11:20, c= 11:30, d = letters[3:8]), l3 = list(a = 21:25, b = 21:30, c = 21:40, d = letters[6:11]))
list1 %>% map_dfc("b") %>% map_dbl(mean) %>% mean()
This works with the tidyverse. But using tidytable gives me the following error...
Error in get(x, envir = env, mode = "function") : object 'b' of mode 'function' was not found
I also tried it using the pluck() function - map_dfc(pluck("b")) but got the same error.
Is the pluck function not implemented in tidytable map function?
Thank you for all the hard work!
