Workflow

view_create

Create an enhanced view of R objects in the browser

Opens an interactive, browser-based viewer for R objects with syntax highlighting, tabbed interfaces, and enhanced data table support. Handles data frames, plots, lists, functions, and more with appropriate rendering for each type.


Usage

view_create(x, title = NULL, max_rows = 5000)

Arguments

Argument Description
x

The data to view (data.frame, plot, list, function, or other R object)

title

Optional title for the view. If NULL, uses the object name.

max_rows

Maximum number of rows to display for data frames (default: 5000). Large data frames are automatically truncated with a warning.

Returns

Invisibly returns NULL. Function is called for its side effect of opening a browser window with the rendered view.

Examples

# View a data frame with interactive table
view_create(mtcars)

# View a plot
library(ggplot2)
p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, hp)) + geom_point()
view_create(p, title = "MPG vs HP")

# View a list with YAML and R structure tabs
view_create(list(a = 1, b = 2, c = list(d = 3)))
