Tidyeval splice operator !!! fails with ggplot's aes

Question

The article discussing tidy evaluation in ggplot2 gives the impression that aes() now supports quasiquoation. However, I\'m having problems getting it to work with

Answer 1

That's because aes() takes x and y arguments and !!! only works within dots. We'll try to solve this particular problem in the future. In the interim you'll need to unquote x and y individually, or use the following workaround:

aes2 <- function(...) {
  eval(expr(aes(!!!enquos(...))))
}

ggplot(mtcars, aes2(!!!v)) + geom_point()
