FR: getDocumentContent() #281

Closed olivroy closed 11 months ago

olivroy commented 11 months ago

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to add getDocumentContent()

For unsaved files, I don't know how to read lines

or readDocumentLines

Does rstudioapi::getSourceEditorContext() give you what you need? You can pass it an id as retrieved from rstudioapi::documentId().

Oh, yes sorry. I didn't realise it returned a list. This does the trick indeed.

rstudioapi::getSourceEditorContext()$content
