Find a Module.

Find a module, in the context of a module scope, if any.

find_module(name, scope_name = NULL, absolute = TRUE, extensions = c(".R",
  ".r", ".Rmd", ".rmd", ".Rnw", ".rnw"))

Arguments

name	A string (character vector of lenght one). A module name can contain letters, figures and some special characters, namely _, -, and /. The latter is a namespace separator. Names containing /mock/, /mocks/, /test/, /tests/, /example/, or /examples/ have a special meaning related to code testing and examples. The name "modulr" corresponds to a special module and is therefore reserved.
scope_name	A module name to use as scope (see define, maps_config, and examples).
absolute	A flag. Should the returned path be absolute? (see define, root_config, and examples)
extensions	A character vector. File extensions to consider.

Value

A list containing informations relative to the module: name, version, in-memory or on-disk storage, and file path (absolute or relative).
