write_survey: Write a Survey

In itsdalmo/reporttoolDT: Work with surveys to generate reports

Description

In contrast to write_data, write_survey will store hidden fields (such as config, translations etc.) which can be retrieved by using read_survey. This means that you don't have to repeatedly set these options when reading/writing a survey you are working on. Information that cannot be stored in SPSS will be stored in an associated .Rdata file instead.

Usage

write_survey(x, file)

Arguments

x	A Survey.
file	Output file or directory. (If a directory is specified, PLS-input will be created. The resulting EM.sav file-name is based on the Survey's config.)

Details

You can also use write_data to write the Survey. In this case the information which is persisted depends on the format used:

• .sav: Data including labels, and levels for factor variables.

• .xlsx: Data, measurement model (labels and levels) and entities.

• .Rdata: Everything is stored.

# Store data and labels
seamless::write_data(df, "test.sav")

# Write survey as .sav (hidden fields stored as .Rdata)
write_survey(df, "test.sav")
