convert

A character string naming an input file.

in_file

A character string naming an output file.

out_file

A named list of options to be passed to <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/import?package=rio&version=0.5.29" data-mini-rdoc="rio::import">import</a></code>.

in_opts

A named list of options to be passed to <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/export?package=rio&version=0.5.29" data-mini-rdoc="rio::export">export</a></code>.

out_opts

This function constructs a data frame from a data file using <code>import</code> and uses <code>export</code> to write the data to disk in the format indicated by the file extension.

Streamlined data import and export by making assumptions that
the user is probably willing to make: 'import()' and 'export()' determine
the data structure from the file extension, reasonable defaults are used for
data import and export (e.g., 'stringsAsFactors=FALSE'), web-based import is
natively supported (including from SSL/HTTPS), compressed files can be read
directly without explicit decompression, and fast import packages are used where
appropriate. An additional convenience function, 'convert()', provides a simple
method for converting between file types.
