Description

This function creates a ROCK project configuration file in the YAML format. See the Details section for more information.

Usage

make_ROCKproject_config(
  project = list(title = "Default title", authors = "Authors", authorIds = NULL, version
    = "1.0", ROCK_version = "1.0", ROCK_project_version = "1.0", date_created =
    format(Sys.time(), "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z"), date_modified = format(Sys.time(),
    "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z")),
  codebook = list(urcid = "", embedded = NULL, local = ""),
  sources = list(extension = ".rock", regex = NULL, dirsToIncludeRegex = "data/",
    recursive = TRUE, dirsToExcludeRegex = NULL, filesToIncludeRegex = NULL,
    filesToExcludeRegex = NULL),
  workflow = list(pipeline = NULL, actions = NULL),
  extra = NULL,
  path = NULL
)

Value

A list with the passed configuration in a list called $input, and as YAML in a character vector called $yaml.

Arguments

project

A named list with the project metadata.

codebook

A named list with the project's codebook.

sources

A named list with the project's source import settings.

workflow

A named list with the project's workflow settings.

extra

A named list with any additional things you want to store in the project's configuration file. One never knows whether being able to do that comes in handy at some point.

path

If not NULL, the ROCK project configuration will be written to the file _ROCKproject.yml in this directory.

Details

For more information about the ROCK project configuration file format, see the ROCKproject-format vignette. You can view this from R using:

Examples

Run this code
### To get the default configuration,
### just pass no arguments:
defaultConfig <-
  rock::make_ROCKproject_config();

### You can then extract the object with settings
config <- defaultConfig$input;

### Edit some of them
config$project$title <- "Some new title";

### Call the function again with the new arguments
myConfig <-
  rock::make_ROCKproject_config(
    project = config$project,
    codebook = config$codebook,
    sources = config$sources,
    workflow = config$workflow,
    extra = config$extra
  );

### View the result
cat(myConfig$yaml);
