process_folder: Convert PLEXOS files to SQLite databases

Description

Functions to process PLEXOS solution and input files and dump them into SQLite databases that are easier to read.

Usage

process_folder(folders = ".", keep.temp = FALSE)
process_input(file)
process_solution(file, keep.temp = FALSE)

Arguments

folders

Folder(s) to process (See details)

keep.temp

Should temporary databases be preserved?

file

Single PLEXOS solution or input file to process

Details

process_solution converts a single zipped PLEXOS solution into a SQLite database. The resulting database file has a simplified structure so data can be retrieved easily. The temporary database contains the original data structure in the PLEXOS solution file.

process_input converts a single PLEXOS input file (in XML form) solution into a SQLite database. The database includes the raw tables and a series of views that better organize the data.

process_folders is used to process one or more folders. It searches each folder for PLEXOS solution or input files and applies process_solution or process_input to each one of them.

The default folder is the working directory. If the wildcard "*" is provided, all the folders in the working directory will be processed (the list of folders if provided by the list_folders function).

Do not rename the SQLite databases created with these functions. Other code expects those filenames to remain unchanged.

Examples

process_folder()
process_folder("HiWind")
process_solution("HiWind/Model WWSIS_c_RT_CoreB_M01_SC3 Solution.zip")
process_input("WWSIS model.xml")
