Panel regression by group

I have searched many questions, but none of them is using plm.

I have a firm-year panel data dt, each firm have different year observations. I have a panel regression:

plm(y~ lag(x1, 1)+ lag(x2, 1)+ lag(log(x3), 1),
data= dt, model= "within", effect= "twoways", index= c("firm", "fyear"))

I want to use this panel regression for each firm group. I tried by, group by in dplyr, and lmList, but none of them works on plm. Because there is lagged terms in my regression, I must use plm regression.

Assuming you have a group column:

library(plm)
#get data
data("Produc", package = "plm")
dt=Produc[,c("state","year","gsp","pcap","pc","emp","region")]
colnames(dt)=c("firm","fyear","y","x1","x2","x3","group") #your names + group
plm(y~ lag(x1, 1)+ lag(x2, 1)+ lag(log(x3), 1),
    data= dt, model= "within", effect= "twoways", index= c("firm", "fyear"))
#Model Formula: y ~ lag(x1, 1) + lag(x2, 1) + lag(log(x3), 1)
#
#Coefficients:
#     lag(x1, 1)      lag(x2, 1) lag(log(x3), 1) 
#       -0.50586         0.88671     12417.08080 

# split and lapply
dts=split(dt,dt$group)
regs=lapply(dts,function(dtt)plm(y~ lag(x1, 1)+ lag(x2, 1)+ lag(log(x3), 1),
                            data= dtt, model= "within", effect= "twoways", 
                            index= c("firm", "fyear"))$coefficients)
do.call("rbind",regs)

# > do.call("rbind",regs)
# lag(x1, 1) lag(x2, 1) lag(log(x3), 1)
# 1 -1.51064158 1.96541347        8163.974
