Hi all, I'd like to hear your ideas on how to include noweb references to code blocks in a way that the default values are used as parameter values.
Here is a little example: #+PROPERTY: header-args:R :session *testR* The background is that I like to use Org mode table to record small data. #+name: datatable | A | B | |---+----| | 1 | 10 | | 2 | 20 | Usually I want to pre-process and/or convert such data. #+name: read_datatable #+header: :var datatable=datatable #+begin_src R :results none datatable$B <- 10 * datatable$B #+end_src Later I would like to use that data in larger (R-) code blocks. I'd like such code blocks to DWIM: #+name: some_code #+begin_src R :noweb yes :results graphics :file testplot.png <<read_datatable>> plot(datatable$A, datatable$B) #+end_src But they do not: They are not stand alone and do not execute -- unless I executed `read_datatable' manually/by chance upfront. My current solution is to export the table to csv and read that csv in `read_datatable'. If the result of `read_datatable' is a single table again (as in this MWE) I usually return that to Org mode which works ok. But often the result is more complex than that. I see two ways to go: - I could serialize more complex objects to disk and return a file name. But I'd prefer to not go through disk. - I could pass the same arguments as to `read_datatable' also to `some_code'. But that is duplication and becomes quite convoluted in the case of several noweb references with several arguments each. Any ideas how to do that better? Thanks, Andreas
