escape_rd_for_md {roxygen2}R Documentation

Escape Rd markup, to avoid interpreting it as markdown

Description

This is needed, if we want to stay compatible with existing markup, even if markdown mode is switched on. Fragile Rd tags (tags that may contain markup that can be picked up by the markdown parser), are replaced by placeholders. After the markdown to Rd conversion is done, the original text is put back in place of the placeholders.

It puts back the protected fragile Rd commands into the text after the markdown parsing.

Usage

escape_rd_for_md(text)

unescape_rd_for_md(rd_text, esc_text)

Arguments

text

Input text. Potentially contains Rd and/or markdown markup.

rd_text

The markdown parsed and interpreted text.

esc_text

The original escaped text from escape_rd_for_md().

Details

The list of protected Rd tags is in escaped_for_md.

Some Rd macros are treated specially:

See also roclet-rd.R for the list of tags that uses the markdown-enabled parser. Some tags, e.g. @aliases, @backref, etc. only use the standard Roxygen parser.

Value

For escape_rd_for_md: A “safe” version of the input text, where each fragile Rd tag is replaced by a placeholder. The original text is added as an attribute for each placeholder.

For unescape_rd_for_md: Rd text.
