jamovi

Hi,
I've the following scenario I wasn't able to solve in a simple way. I'd like one option to be private (not in the UI) when the module is used in jamovi, but to be public when the module is used in R. Is that possible without creating a dummy ugly option in the UI that nobody is going to use?

More specifically, the module estimates models based on formulas. In jamovi, the formula is composed internally combining dep-variable, covs-variables and factor-variables, thus the "model" variable is private in the R6 class. When the user uses the module in R, it would be nice that s/he can provide the formula directly, as a formula() object. However, to do that I need the "model" option to be public.

How is the best way to go?

you can add a

hidden: true

to the option in the .a.yaml

however, i don't know if any of the option types will accept a formula, so we may want to add a generic 'object' option.

cheers

thanks, i'll give it a try

how did you get on? did you need me to add any additional features?

Hi
I'm rewriting some code of GAMLj to make it faster, and I still have to get to this issue. I'll get back to it in a week or so
