isSupported: Check if a variable has a class supported by dataReporter

In dataReporter: Reproducible Data Screening Checks and Report of Possible Errors

Description

A checkFunction that checks if v has one of the classes supported by dataReporter, namely character, factor, numeric, integer, labelled, haven_labelled, logical and Date (inlcuding other classes that inherits from any of these classes). A user supported list can be provided in the treatXasY argument, which will let the user decide how unsupported classes should be treated. This function is intended for use as a precheck in makeDataReport.

Usage

isSupported(v)

Arguments

Value

A checkResult with three entires: $problem (a logical indicating whether v contains only one value), $message (if a problem was found, a message describing which single value the variable takes and how many missing observations it contains, otherwise ""), and $problemValues (always NULL).
