Hi,
Can you provide an example of what you want to achieve ? I am willing to help but I am not sure of the desired output.
The better is a small reproductible example to understand the undesired behavior you are observing.
It is wild guess but knitr as a render
option that could be used to provide a custom function for rendering a specific chunk in a specific way. See there https://yihui.name/knitr/options/
Hope it helps.
I don't think it is possible to create a reprex with chunks, so I'll improvise. If I make an R Markdown file with the following chunks
```{r setup, include=F}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
library(printr)
library(tibble)
?coef
head(as_tibble(iris))
I get the help text in my output, but the tibble is printed with `kable`
Now if I comment out `library(printr)`, I don't get the help output, but my tibble prints as a tibble.
What I want is a mixture: I want the help output, but I want `printr` to leave my tibbles alone.
So in summary:
| | `library(tibble)` | `#library(tibble)` | What I want |
| ------------- | ------------- |------------- | ------------- |
| help section printed | T | F | T|
| tibble printed with `kable` | T | F | F|
Thanks a lot ! This is a very helpful reprex. I understand now what you mean by modular. I get why it could be interesting to not have all the methods loaded but I am not sure how it could be done. This will need thinking.
As a workaround, for your specific case, you could deactivate the pretty printing for a chunk, and thus for a chunk with you tibble. You can use the render
option for that and set it to usual print
because you are looking at basic printing

title: "Test"
output: html_document

```{r setup, include=F}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
library(printr)
library(tibble)
?coef
head(as_tibble(iris))
Is this what you seek for your specific case ?

Sorry for the late reply, but yes, exactly what I want ;)
Thanks for this nice package. I am a teacher mainly interested in including sections of help pages in my xaringan presentations so that I can explain functions to students. However, I still want my tibbles printed in the regular way. Could you make the functionality modular so that we can choose what gets pretty-printed?
