mutate_progress()

mutate_progress.R

#' dplyr::mutate, but with a progress bar for grouped data
#'
#' @aliases mutate_progress
#' @export
#' @inheritParams dplyr::mutate
#' @param .prefix Text to show before the progress bar.
#' @param .format Format for the progress bar. See documentation in \code{\link[progress]{progress_bar}}. 
#'   - ":what" identifies the current group. 
#'   - ":total" is the total number of groups. 
#'   - ":current" is the current group number.
#' @param .progress_args Further arguments to
#'   \code{\link[progress]{progress_bar}}.
#' @details The order of computation differs between \code{\link[dplyr]{mutate}}
#' and `mutate_progress`. \code{\link[dplyr]{mutate}} computes for all groups at
#' each variable before proceeding to the next variable. `mutate_progress`
#' computes for all variables in each group, before proceeding to the next
#' group.

I get an ---object 'progress_bar' not found -- when running the function.

@GGLuca It's from the progress package. Just updated the code
