Determine which package a function is from — find

This function takes a character vector of function names and returns a dataframe containing the package containing those functions.

Usage

find_pkgs(funs)

Arguments

funs: a character vector of function names

Value

dataframe with the function (fun) and it's parent package (package), each as strings

Details

Objects that appear to be in the global environment will be indicated as `.GlobalEnv`. Functions that are referenced via a namespace (i.e. `::` or `:::`) may not indicate a package, particularly when the package is not loaded.

Where the same function is found in multiple packages, all packages are returned. This is particularly the case where functions are re-exported by multiple packages (e.g. `dplyr::mutate` is also exported by `gtsummary`).

Where the `conflicted` package is used, the package that takes priority is returned.

Examples

find_pkgs("mutate")
#>      fun package
#> 1 mutate
