unglue_detect: Detect if strings are matched by a set of unglue patterns
In unglue: Extract Matched Substrings Using a Pattern

Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

View source: R/unglue.R

Returns a logical indicating whether input strings were matched by one or more patterns

unglue_detect(
  x,
  patterns,
  open = "{",
  close = "}",
  convert = FALSE,
  multiple = NULL
)

`x`	a character vector to unglue.
`patterns`	a character vector or a list of character vectors, if a list, items will be pasted using an empty separator (`""`).
`open`	The opening delimiter.
`close`	The closing delimiter.
`convert`	If `TRUE`, will convert columns of output using `utils::type.convert()` with parameter `as.is = TRUE`, alternatively, can be a converting function, such as `readr::type_convert`. Formula notation is supported if the package `rlang` is installed, so things like `convert = ~type_convert(., numerals = "warn.loss")` are possible.
`multiple`	The aggregation function to use if several subpatterns are named the same, by default no function is used and subpatterns named the same will match the same value. If a function is provided it will be fed the conflicting values as separate arguments. Formula notation is supported if the package `rlang` is installed.

a vector of logical.

sentences <- c("666 is [a number]", "foo is [a word]",
               "42 is [the answer]", "Area 51 is [unmatched]")
patterns <- c("{number=\\d+} is [{what}]", "{word=\\D+} is [{what}]")
