Spy on Your R Session

A simple package for tidy logging of everything you type into the R console.

Installation

You can install matahari from CRAN with:

install.packages("matahari")

Or from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("jhudsl/matahari")

Getting Started

library(matahari)
library(tidyverse)
library(knitr)

# Start logging your commands
dance_start(value = TRUE)

4 + 4
"wow!"
mean(1:10)

# Pause logging
dance_stop()

# Look at your log as a tibble
dance_tbl()

## # A tibble: 6 x 6
