Issue with changing theme in dw_edit_chart

[michaelgoodier]

Really useful package for a current project i'm having to work on at work - thanks!

For some reason I was unable to change the name of the datawrapper theme using the following dw_edit_chart().
(x here being the name of a dw_chart-object)

dw_edit_chart(x, title="Example title",
                type="d3-bars-grouped",
                theme="custom_theme")

I managed to add it using a custom httr::Patch()

call_body <- list(title="Example title",
                    type="d3-bars-grouped",
                    theme = dw_theme,
                    metadata = list(describe = list(`source-name` = "Global Data")))    
  
  httr::PATCH(url = paste0('https://api.datawrapper.de/v3/charts/',x$id), httr::add_headers(Authorization = paste0('Bearer ',api_key)), body = call_body, encode = "json",.DATAWRAPPR_UA)

I'm not sure why - maybe it is to do with the order of things in the call body as as theme isn't a default option in dw_edit_chart it gets added to the end? Thought I'd flag anyway!

Seems to be an issue with rlist::list.append(). It's appending a nested item to call_body, instead of a vector element (theme = "xyz").

I am testing a fix with base append() in 599bfac

This issue should be fixed in V1.2 (599bfac)
