tCorpus-cash-feats_to_columns: Cast the "feats" column in UDpipe tokens to columns

In corpustools: Managing, Querying and Analyzing Tokenized Text

Cast the "feats" column in UDpipe tokens to columns

Description

If the UDpipe parser is used in create_tcorpus, the 'feats' column contains strings with features (e.g, Number=Sing|PronType=Dem). To work with these nested features it is more convenient to cast them to columns.

Arguments

keep	Optionally, the names of features to keep
drop	Optionally, the names of features to drop
rm_column	If TRUE (default), remove the original column

Details

Usage:

## R6 method for class tCorpus. Use as tc$method (where tc is a tCorpus object).

feats_to_columns(keep=NULL, drop=NULL, rm_column=TRUE)

Examples

if (interactive()) {
tc = create_tcorpus('This is a test Bobby.', udpipe_model='english-ewt')
tc$feats_to_columns()
tc$tokens

tc = create_tcorpus('This is a test Bobby.', udpipe_model='english-ewt')
tc$feats_to_columns(keep = c('Gender','Tense','Person'))
tc$tokens
}
