how to use $ mark to get a sub-element of a list in dplyr pipe

What if I want to use "$" to get the sub-elements of a list in dplyr pipe?

Problem from:
I called boxplot.stats() on every circumstances (4 factors: value, metallic, bumpiness, reference):

match.raw %>% 
  select(-id) %>% 
  group_by(value, metallic, bumpiness, reference) %>% 
  group_split() %>% 
  map(select, diff) %>% 
  map(as.matrix) %>% 
  map(boxplot.stats)

Then I get a bunch of results of multiple boxplot.stats calls. I want to get the "out" information from every boxplot.stats result just like:

boxplot.stats(x)$out

Here is my data:

> head(match.raw, 20)
   id value metallic bumpiness reference match  diff

20  1   0.5      0.5       0.5       0.7  0.78  0.08

>Solution :

Try this.

library(purrr); library(dplyr)

match.raw %>% 
  select(-id) %>% 
  group_by(value, metallic, bumpiness, reference) %>% 
  group_split() %>% 
  map(select, diff) %>% 
  map(as.matrix) %>% 
  map(boxplot.stats) %>%
  map(\(.) .$out) %>%
  unlist()

Your example data is everywhere numeric(0) in "out" though.
