Attach a provenance record to a result.

Source: R/provenance.R
attach_provenance.Rd

Store a provenance record (from record_provenance()) on an object as an attribute, so the result travels together with its lineage. Retrieve it later with get_provenance().

Usage

attach_provenance(x, provenance)

Arguments

x

Any R object, typically a result tibble.

provenance

Provenance tibble from record_provenance().

Value

x, unchanged except for an added whep_provenance attribute.

Examples

prov <- record_provenance(
  aliases = "bilateral_trade",
  recorded_at = as.POSIXct("2026-01-01", tz = "UTC")
)
result <- attach_provenance(tibble::tibble(value = 1), prov)
get_provenance(result)
