Progress bar

[tetomonti]

Wondering how easy/difficult would be to add a progress bar when running CaDrA::topn_eval or even simply the candidate_search function.

[tetomonti]

Actually, I think it would be more appropriate when running the permutation testing.

There is an sapply() function in topn(), so if we put a progress bar within the permutation part, then we will result in top_N progress bars. If top_N < 10 then it's probably OK.

Most important is at permutation level (i.e., cadra_search). Need to turn it off at inner level (i.e., topn_eval or candidate_search) if called from cadra_search.
see plyr::alply( ..., .progress =...) for a potentially already defined solution.
see sys.parent for a function that would help do this automatically

Check if there is any updated version of plyr::alply in purrr or other tidyverse pacakge

Looks like you ( @RC-88 ) are probably working on this, that's great!
Please notice that when running it, there is a lot of messaging and other output (e.g., the heatmaps) that will need to be turned off at inner level(s):
Right now, a lot of output interferes w/ the progress bar:
