This function creates a flat tabular file of cell values and corresponding paths via path_enriched_df(). It then
writes that data frame out as a tsv file.
export_as_tsv(
tt,
file = NULL,
path_fun = collapse_path,
value_fun = collapse_values
)import_from_tsv(file)
export_as_tsv returns NULL silently.
import_from_tsv returns a data.frame with re-constituted list values.
(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.
(string)
the path of the file to written to or read from.
(function)
function to transform paths into single-string row/column names.
(function)
function to transform cell values into cells of a data.frame. Defaults to
collapse_values, which creates strings where multi-valued cells are collapsed together, separated by |.
By default (i.e. when value_func is not specified, list columns where at least one value has length > 1 are
collapsed to character vectors by collapsing the list element with "|".
path_enriched_df() for the underlying function that does the work.
