No - but please bug me - I can post in the intermediate future an
example demonstrating the points.
But the main points are:
* Setup
** I added the following to my emacs.org
*** Add local variable in tangled files if they match [.]R
The variable =org-babel-tangled-file t= enables ess to trace back the
source from the .R file to the .org file, using the comments which
have to include the org links.
See the thread "Automatically adding local variables to tangled file" for details
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defvar org-babel-tangled-file nil
"If non-nill, current file was tangled with org-babel-tangle")
(put 'org-babel-tangled-file 'safe-local-variable 'booleanp)
(defun org-babel-mark-file-as-tangled ()
(when (buffer-file-name)
(when (string-match "[.]R" (buffer-file-name))
(add-file-local-variable 'org-babel-tangled-file t)
(add-file-local-variable 'buffer-read-only t)
(add-file-local-variable 'eval: '(auto-revert-mode))
(basic-save-buffer))))
(add-hook 'org-babel-post-tangle-hook 'org-babel-mark-file-as-tangled)
#+end_src
** Tangling
- The files have to be tangled with the header argument =:comments link=
(or both) for this to work.
- =:padline no= is necessary (at least it was) as the empty lines in
the tangled file caused ess to identify the wrong line in the source
code
** This should now work.
* Use code as "package"
Effectively, I do the following:
** code
tangle all .R files to ./R *without variables transfer*. These should
contain definitions of functions and not executable code.
** data
data files (i.e. the variables transferred from org) are transfered as
tangled files in in the ./data directory.
*** Species names and espre codes of species used by Vallet
:PROPERTIES:
:header-args+: :tangle ./data/SPECIESVALLET.R
:header-args+: :rownames yes
:header-args+: :colnames yes

** evaluation
data and code is *never* evaluated, i.e.
:PROPERTIES:
:header-args+: :eval never
:END:
The code and data is loaded as follow:
#+begin_src R
library(devtools)
load_all("./")
#+end_src
and there you go.
To debug the code, I enable developer mode in ESS
and add the package =the_name_of_the_directory_./= to be debugged.
* Using the code
I have a second subtree (except of the one containing the code and the
data) which is evaluated (as some lengthy analysis are involved, not on export but before) and contains the actual analysis.
* Advantages
- All code and data is enclosed in a "package" environment and,
- when the project is finished, it can be easily packed in a package
and handed on to other users.
- documentation to the functions can be added using roxygen which can
easily be translated into .rd files
* Final words
I hope this clarifies my approach.
For me, this is a very "natural" approach, as I like to use packages
and capsulate everything in environments / packages, and it seems very
"clean" to me to define the core of the analysis as functions in
=./R/*.R= files, the variables in =./data/*= files and the actual
analysis as mainly a few function calls.
If you have any further questions, please go on and ask.
Cheers,
Rainer
