In case anyone is interested. I came up with a quite simple code block
that does what I want:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+name: org_exec
#+header: :var srcblock=""
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent
(save-excursion
(org-babel-goto-named-src-block srcblock)
(org-babel-execute-src-block)
)
(concat srcblock " executed")
#+end_src
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Now, I can do
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+name: some_code
#+begin_src R :session *testR* :noweb yes :results graphics :file testplot.png
<<org_exec("read_datatable")>>
plot(datatable$A, datatable$B)
#+end_src
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The remaining downside is that I have to take care of running things in
the correct session.
Best,
Andreas
PS: complete example:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Org
#+name: org_exec
#+header: :var srcblock=""
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent
(save-excursion
(org-babel-goto-named-src-block srcblock)
(org-babel-execute-src-block)
)
(concat "\"" srcblock " executed" "\"")
#+end_src
* Data
#+name: datatable
| A | B |
|---+----|
| 1 | 10 |
| 2 | 20 |
#+name: read_datatable
#+header: :var datatable=datatable
#+begin_src R :session *testR* :results value :colnames yes
datatable$B <- 10 * datatable$B
datatable
#+end_src
#+results: read_datatable
| A | B |
|---+-----|
| 1 | 100 |
| 2 | 200 |
* Analysis
#+name: some_code
#+begin_src R :session *testR* :noweb yes :results graphics :file testplot.png
<<org_exec("read_datatable")>>
plot(datatable$A, datatable$B)
#+end_src
#+results: some_code
[[file:testplot.png]]
