create_instrument_meta: DEPRICATED Create zips file with necessary content based on data set

Description

Metadata can be added by editing the data dictionary of a project in the initial design phase. If you want to later add new instruments, this function can be used to create (an) instrument(s) to add to a project in production.

Usage

create_instrument_meta(data, dir = here::here(""), record.id = TRUE)

Value

list

Arguments

data

metadata for the relevant instrument. Could be from `ds2dd_detailed()`

dir

destination dir for the instrument zip. Default is the current WD.

record.id

flag to omit the first row of the data dictionary assuming this is the record_id field which should not be included in the instrument. Default is TRUE.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
data <- iris |>
  ds2dd_detailed(
    add.auto.id = TRUE,
    form.name = sample(c("b", "c"),
      size = 6,
      replace = TRUE, prob = rep(.5, 2)
    )
  ) |>
  purrr::pluck("meta")
# data |> create_instrument_meta()

data <- iris |>
  ds2dd_detailed(add.auto.id = FALSE) |>
  purrr::pluck("data")
iris |>
  setNames(glue::glue("{sample(x = c('a','b'),size = length(ncol(iris)),
replace=TRUE,prob = rep(x=.5,2))}__{names(iris)}")) |>
  ds2dd_detailed(form.sep = "__")
data |>
  purrr::pluck("meta") |>
  create_instrument_meta(record.id = FALSE)
