In codebook: Automatic Codebooks from Metadata Encoded in Dataset Attributes

Description

Modelled on haven::zap_labels(), but more encompassing. By default removes the following attributes: format.spss, format.sas, format.stata, label, labels, na_values, na_range, display_width

Modelled on haven::zap_labels(), but more encompassing. By default removes the following attributes: format.spss, format.sas, format.stata, label, labels, na_values, na_range, display_width

Usage

zap_attributes(
  x,
  attributes = c("format.spss", "format.sas", "format.stata", "label", "labels",
    "na_values", "na_range", "display_width")
)

zap_attributes(
  x,
  attributes = c("format.spss", "format.sas", "format.stata", "label", "labels",
    "na_values", "na_range", "display_width")
)

Arguments

x	the data frame or variable
attributes	character vector of attributes to zap. NULL if everything (including factor levels etc) should be zapped

Examples

bfi <- data.frame(matrix(data = rnorm(300), ncol = 3))
names(bfi) <- c("bfi_e1", "bfi_e2R", "bfi_e3")
attributes(bfi$bfi_e1)$label <- "I am outgoing."
attributes(bfi$bfi_e2R)$label <- "I prefer books to people."
attributes(bfi$bfi_e3)$label <- "I love to party."
bfi$bfi_e <- rowMeans(bfi[, c("bfi_e1", "bfi_e2R", "bfi_e3")])
bfi <- detect_scales(bfi, quiet = TRUE) # create attributes
str(zap_attributes(bfi, "label"))
zap_attributes(bfi$bfi_e)
bfi <- data.frame(matrix(data = rnorm(300), ncol = 3))
names(bfi) <- c("bfi_e1", "bfi_e2R", "bfi_e3")
attributes(bfi$bfi_e1)$label <- "I am outgoing."
attributes(bfi$bfi_e2R)$label <- "I prefer books to people."
attributes(bfi$bfi_e3)$label <- "I love to party."
bfi$bfi_e <- rowMeans(bfi[, c("bfi_e1", "bfi_e2R", "bfi_e3")])
bfi <- detect_scales(bfi, quiet = TRUE) # create attributes
str(zap_attributes(bfi, "label"))
zap_attributes(bfi$bfi_e)
