Longer, multi-chunk patterns can benefit from being developed in files independent of the rest of a draft. This is a quick wrapper function to import those patterns as objects for assembly into a draft.

import_pattern(filepath)

Arguments

filepath

A valid character string to the plaintext file containing the pattern.

Value

A character string, typically used to assemble a draft.

export_template("my sample pattern", pattern_file)
import_pattern(pattern_file)
#> [1] "my sample pattern"
