Can you store the plot in an object?

[wolass]

Hi!
thanks for a great package
I want to touput the generated plot into a text file.
Would it be possible to store the plot in an R object and use paste0 to paste it in a predefined spot in a R generated file?

Right now the functions only produce the output in the console.

Thanks for your reply

This is a way to store the output in a file:

require(stats)
sink("txtplot.txt")
txtplot(cars[,1], cars[,2])
sink()
file.show("txtplot.txt")  

and this as an R object:

txt <- readLines("txtplot.txt")
txt

Method above works in RStudio. In Colab you should instead use:

write('require(txtplot)
require(stats)
sink("txtplot.txt")
txtplot(cars[,1], cars[,2])
sink()', 'script.R')

system("Rscript script.R", intern = T)
file.show("txtplot.txt")
