If you work in a language other than English, you can extend plume
classes with default names in your desired language. plume provides
set_default_names()
to help you set new default names.
E.g. to extend Plume
with default names in French:
PlumeFr <- R6::R6Class(
classname = "PlumeFr",
inherit = Plume,
private = list(
plume_names = set_default_names(
initials = "initiales",
literal_name = "nom_complet",
corresponding = "correspondant",
given_name = "prénom",
family_name = "nom",
email = "courriel",
phone = "téléphone"
)
)
)
PlumeFr$new(encyclopedists_fr)
#> # A tibble: 4 × 11
#> id prénom nom nom_complet initiales courriel téléphone orcid role note
#> <int> <chr> <chr> <chr> <chr> <chr> <chr> <chr> <chr> <chr>
#> 1 1 Denis Dide… Denis Dide… DD diderot… +1234 0000… Supe… né e…
#> 2 2 Jean-J… Rous… Jean-Jacqu… J-JR roussea… <NA> 0000… <NA> <NA>
#> 3 3 Franço… Arou… François-M… F-MA arouet@… <NA> <NA> <NA> dit …
#> 4 4 Jean Le R… Jean Le Ro… JLRd'A alember… <NA> 0000… Supe… né e…
#> # ℹ 1 more variable: affiliation <list>
You can also overwrite the default arguments of some methods to match
your language. I recommend doing it in the public
argument
of the class definition. For the purpose of this example, I’ll use the
set()
method instead. For example, to change
divider
and sep_last
to :
and
et
in get_contributions()
:
PlumeFr$set("public", "get_contributions", function(
roles_first = TRUE,
by_author = FALSE,
alphabetical_order = FALSE,
dotted_initials = TRUE,
literal_names = FALSE,
divider = " : ",
sep = ", ",
sep_last = " et "
) {
super$get_contributions(
roles_first, by_author, alphabetical_order, dotted_initials,
literal_names, divider, sep, sep_last
)
})
