versaread: Load RDS, RData, or CSV Files

In chenyenchung/genofeatutil: Utilities for genomic feature manipulation

Description

versaread() is mainly for loading saved lists of gene names. For .RData files containing one object or an .RDS file, versaread() loads and returns the object for you to assign. For CSV files, it expects something containing 1 column and with a header, and will ignore everything after the first column.

Usage

versaread(file, type)

Arguments

file	a character string indicating the path of the desired file
type	a character string indicating the type of file being loaded (Options: rds, rdata, or csv)

Value

a character vector or an R object (if it's an RData or RDS file)

Examples

temprds <- tempfile(fileext = ".rds")
saveRDS(iris, file = temprds)
iris_reload <- versaread(temprds, type = "rds")
tempcsv<- tempfile(fileext = ".csv")
write.csv(iris$Species, file = tempcsv)
iris_species <- versaread(tempcsv, type = "csv")
