This is thoroughly experimental!
SOcode(x, data_object_name = "SOmap_data"): a map object as returned by SOmap, SOmanagement, SOleg, or SOgg
string: the name to use for the object that will hold the map data. See Examples, below
A list with two elements: code contains R code that will draw the map, and SOmap_data (or whatever was passed as the data_object_name argument) contains any data required by that code
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
p <- SOmap()
mapcode <- SOcode(p, data_object_name = "SOmap_data")
## write this code to a file
my_R_file <- tempfile(fileext = ".R")
writeLines(mapcode$code, con = my_R_file)
## you can edit the code in that file if desired
## save the data
my_data_file <- tempfile(fileext = ".rds")
saveRDS(mapcode$SOmap_data, my_data_file)
## later on, we can re-load the data and execute the code
SOmap_data <- readRDS(my_data_file)
source(my_R_file)
## or just to show that this works, evaluate the returned code directly against its data
with(mapcode, for (codeline in code) eval(parse(text = codeline)))
} # }
