createSELFile: Creates an SEL formatted file

In mcneilco/racas: R Package for ACAS

Creates an SEL formatted file

Description

Given data structures that represent the various pieces of an SEL file, this function will write or return SEL formatted files

Usage

createSELFile(selExperimentMetaData, selCalculatedResults = NULL,
  selRawResults = NULL, outputFilePath = NULL, format = "CSV")

Arguments

selExperimentMetaData	typically a data.frame created by createSELExperimentMetaData
selCalculatedResults	optional data.frame of the format createSELCalculatedResults
selRawResults	optional data.frame of the format createSELRawResults
outputFilePath	optional output file path (see details for return if left NULL)
format	"CSV", "XLS" or "XLSX" (not used if outputFilePath is NULL, see details)

Details

If the outputFilePath is NULL then the function will write the CSV representation of the file to a character and return, otherwise it returns the path to the written file.

Value

character path of the written file or character of the CSV results

Examples

selExperimentMetaData <- createSELExperimentMetaData(protocolName = "Cytotox Assay",
                                                experimentName = "2013123_cytotox_bbolt",
                                                assayDate = "2013-01-12")

cars2 <- cars
cars2$Sample <- paste0("CORP",1:nrow(cars))
selCalculatedResults <- createSELCalculatedResults(cars2, corporateIDColumn = "Sample")

#Outputs a character representation of a CSV SEL format
createSELFile(selExperimentMetaData, selCalculatedResults)

#Outputs a file in SEL format
myFile <- tempfile()
createSELFile(selExperimentMetaData, selCalculatedResults, outputFilePath = myFile)
read.csv(myFile)
