col_type

a <code>rcer_metadata</code> or <code>rcer_raw_metadata</code> object

If <code>TRUE</code> (default) then variables reported via drop-down
lists and radio buttons are set up to be <code>factor</code>s. If <code>FALSE</code>,
then the column type will be <code>character</code>.

factors

Define a type for each column of the records for a REDCap project based on
the metadata for the project.

Export all data, including metadata, from a REDCap (Research
Electronic Data Capture) Project via the REDCap API
<https://projectredcap.org/wp-content/resources/REDCapTechnicalOverview.pdf>.
The exported (meta)data will be processed and formatted into a stand alone R
data package which can be installed and shared between researchers. Several
default reports are generated as vignettes in the resulting package.
