In USAID-OHA-SI/gophr: Utility functions related to working with the MER Structured Dataset

Export a single dataset into multiple files by group

Description

'split_save' breaks a dataset by the groups provided and then exports those individual frames as separate csv files. This process can be useful when working with data across multiple partners and then creating datasets to be sent to each of them with their own data.

Usage

split_save(df, group_var, folderpath, filename_stub, include_date = FALSE)

Arguments

df	dataframe to split
group_var	grouping variable to split the dataset by, eg operatingunit, funding_agency
folderpath	directory where you want to store the files
filename_stub	generic stub for naming all the files
include_date	include date after filenamestub? default = FALSE, eg "20180913"

Examples

## Not run: 
#create country specific files for TX_NEW
 df_mer %>%
  filter(indicator == "TX_NEW",
         standardizeddisaggregate == "Total Numerator") %>%
  split_save(operatingunit, "~/CountryFiles", "FY18Q3_TX")

## End(Not run)
