These options will be used on objects of class 'factor'.
opts_factor(
constructor = c("factor", "as_factor", "new_factor", "next", "integer"),
...
)An object of class <constructive_options/constructive_options_factor>
String. Name of the function used to construct the object, see Details section.
Additional options used by user defined constructors through the opts object
Depending on constructor, we construct the object as follows:
"factor" (default): Build the object using factor(), levels won't
be defined explicitly if they are in alphabetical order (locale dependent!)
"as_factor" : Build the object using forcats::as_factor() whenever
possible, i.e. when levels are defined in order of appearance in the vector. Otherwise falls back to "factor" constructor.
"new_factor" : Build the object using vctrs::new_factor(). Levels are
always defined explicitly.
"next" : Use the constructor for the next supported class. Call .class2()
on the object to see in which order the methods will be tried.
"integer" : We define as an integer vector and repair attributes.
