kvh_read: Parse file in KVH format
In kvh: Read/Write Files in Key-Value-Hierarchy Format

Description Usage Arguments

View source: R/RcppExports.R

Returns a list with names formed form kvh keys and values formed from kvh values If a kvh value has sub-keys, it is returned as a nested list. Otherwise it is returned as a character string.

kvh_read(
  fn,
  comment_str = "",
  strip_white = FALSE,
  skip_blank = FALSE,
  split_str = "",
  follow_url = FALSE
)

`fn`	character kvh file name.
`comment_str`	character optional comment string (default empty ""). If non empty, the comment string itself and everything following it on the line is ignored. Note that lines are first appended if end lines are escaped and then a search for a comment string is done.
`strip_white`	logical optional control of white spaces on both ends of keys and values (default FALSE)
`skip_blank`	logical optional control of lines composed of only white characters after a possible stripping of a comment (default FALSE)
`split_str`	character optional string by which a value string can be splitted in several strings (default: empty string, i.e. no splitting)
`follow_url`	logical optional control of recursive kvh reading and parsing. If set to TRUE and a value starts with 'file://' then the path following this prefix will be passed as argument 'fn' to another 'kvh_read()' call. The list returned by this last call will be affected to the corresponding key instead of the value 'file://...'. If a circular reference to some file is detected, a warning is emmited and the faulty value 'file://...' will be left without change. The rest of the file is proceeded as usual. If a path is relative one (i.e. not strating with ‘/' neither ’C:/' or alike on windows paltform) then its meant relative to the location of the parent kvh file, not the current working directory.
