Output redirection

Description

Temporarily divert output to a file via sink(). For sinks of type message, an error is raised if such a sink is already active.

Usage

with_output_sink(new, code, append = FALSE, split = FALSE)

local_output_sink(
  new = list(),
  append = FALSE,
  split = FALSE,
  .local_envir = parent.frame()
)

with_message_sink(new, code, append = FALSE)

local_message_sink(new = list(), append = FALSE, .local_envir = parent.frame())

Arguments

`new`	`[character(1)\|connection]` A writable connection or a character string naming the file to write to. Passing `NULL` will throw an error.
`code`	`[any]` Code to execute in the temporary environment
`append`	logical. If `TRUE`, output will be appended to `file`; otherwise, it will overwrite the contents of `file`.
`split`	logical: if `TRUE`, output will be sent to the new sink and to the current output stream, like the Unix program `tee`.
`.local_envir`	`[environment]` The environment to use for scoping.
