Coerce an S7 object to a vector

Returns a plain R vector representation of x, for which is.vector() is TRUE: an atomic vector for scalar-backed classes, or a named list of coerced properties for compound classes. A list is coerced elementwise, so a mixed structure of S7 objects and plain values converts in one call.

Usage

as_vector(x, ...)

Arguments

x

Any. Object to coerce.

...

Additional arguments passed to methods.

Value

An atomic vector or a named list.

Examples

library(S7)
Point <- new_class(
  "Point",
  properties = list(x = class_float, y = class_float)
)
as_vector(Point(1, 2))
#> $x
#> [1] 1
#> 
#> $y
#> [1] 2
#>
