Filtering out IPython magic %%R in formatting R code

See original GitHub issue

Is there (could there be) an option to filter out the magic %%R when formatting R code? RPy2 allows Python notebooks to call R command via

%%R
library(somerpackage)
a <- some.r.function(b)

and it would be very convenient if the %%R is ignored in formatting the block, since otherwise the block fails to be formatted. Commenting %%R out -> format -> remove commenting works fine but is a little irritating to do.

Thanks and extremely appreciate this tool!

Ah I get it now, you are using the code formatter via the command palette or the “jupyterlab_code_formatter:styler” command right?

That shouldn’t be too hard to implement 😃
