nlme::lmList and stargazer?

I'm trying to use stargazer to format output from the lmList function in the nlme package. I can get stargazer to work if I manually index each list element, but not if I just pass stargazer the full list. Any suggestions for how I can get stargazer to recognize the lmList output?

library(nlme)
library(stargazer)
data("iris")
m <- lmList(Sepal.Length ~ Sepal.Width | Species, data = iris)
stargazer(m, type = "text") # "% Error: Unrecognized object type.
stargazer(m[[1]], m[[2]], m[[3]], type = "text")

You need to package all arguments to stargazer as a list and then get stargazer to accept a list of arguments. The magic function to do this is do.call.

do.call's first argument is the function and the second argument is the list of arguments to pass to that function in the first argument.

So something like this should work:

do.call(stargazer, c(m, type = "text"))

Also FYI the tidyverse version of do.call is invoke so this is the same.

invoke(stargazer, c(m, type = "text"))

Invoke will be nicer because you can pass additional arguments (like type above) without putting them in the list.
