wrcc_parseData: Parse WRCC data string

Description

Raw character data from WRCC are parsed into a tibble. The incoming fileString can be read in directly from WRCC using wrcc_downloadData() or from a local file using readr::read_file().

The type of monitor represented by this fileString is inferred from the column names using wrcc_identifyMonitorType() and appropriate column types are assigned. The character data are then processed, read into a tibble and augmented in the following ways:

1. Spaces at the beginning and end of each line are moved.

2. All header lines beginning with ':' are removed.

Usage

wrcc_parseData(fileString)

Arguments

fileString

character string containing WRCC data

Value

Dataframe of WRCC raw monitor data.
