rm_ext: Remove a File Extension

Description

Fixes the removal of file extensions of file_path_sans_ext() in the case where file names contain digits after the last dot (which is often used to incorporate numeric numbers into file names).

Usage

rm_ext(x)

Arguments

x

file name(s) with extension(s) to be stripped off.

Value

The file name without its extension (if the file name had an extension).

Examples

# NOT RUN {
myfilepath1 <- "/myusername/my_filename_with_dots_0.25_0.50_0.75.rda"
myfilepath2 <- "/myusername/my_filename_with_dots_0.25_0.50_0.75"
myfilepath3 <- "/myusername/my_filename_with_dots_0.25_0.50_0.75."
myfilepath4 <- "/myusername/my_filename_with_dots_0.25_0.50_0.75._"
myfilepath5 <- "/myusername/my_filename_with_dots_0.25_0.50_0.75._*.rda"
library(tools)
file_path_sans_ext(myfilepath2) # fails (only case)

stopifnot(rm_ext(myfilepath1) == file_path_sans_ext(myfilepath1))
stopifnot(rm_ext(myfilepath2) == myfilepath2)
stopifnot(rm_ext(myfilepath3) == file_path_sans_ext(myfilepath3))
stopifnot(rm_ext(myfilepath4) == file_path_sans_ext(myfilepath4))
stopifnot(rm_ext(myfilepath5) == file_path_sans_ext(myfilepath5))
