%P.% operator to print each step to the console? #14

Closed daranzolin closed 4 years ago

daranzolin commented 4 years ago

As the creator of ViewPipeSteps, I know there's interest for seeing the output of each step in a chain. What do you think about an operator that prints each step to the console? Maybe %P.%?

I have considered it, and have not dismissed it. I think my concern was that if this family grows we need to put more thought into what goes in or doesn't, we could also use View() on every step, or print the summary(), or the str(). Another that I would really like is to have a %C.% pipe to compare each output with the previous one. Some comparison functions exist but none is as flexible as I need so I'd need to build it myself I think (tidylog works only with tidy verbs, all.equal is not quite enough, arsenal::compare has interesting features but doesn't fit right in).

I'll add %P. % though it as it's the one that makes the most sense I guess!

Maybe put all the display/inspect/view options in a separate, complimentary package called {exhibitionist}?

it's done :), along with a %V.% pipe and assigning counterparts :)
