read_clipboard: Read a Dataframe from Clipboard

In meerapatelmd/broca: Helpers for Reading and Writing Data

Description

Data types are double, integer, numeric, and character. All factors are converted to character before the dataframe is returned. If header is false, the dataframe is returned with all the rows and column names in the pattern "Vindex," where "index" is the position of the column.

Usage

read_clipboard(header = TRUE, log = "DEPRECATED", log_details = "")

Arguments

header	True if data has a header.
log	(Deprecated) Log this function call to a log.md file?
log_details	(Deprecated) If log is TRUE, additional notes to include with the log entry.

# Test Data
test_data <-
        tibble(A = 1:3,
               B = c("Apples", "Bananas", "Oranges"),
               C = factor(c("Apples", "Bananas", "Oranges")),
               D = runif(3))


# Copy to Clipboard
copy_cb(data = test_data)

# Read Clipboard
read_cb()

# Check Datatypes
sapply(test_data, FUN = class)
sapply(read_cb(), FUN = class) # `read_cb()` function mutates all factors to character before returning

# Read Clipboard Shortcut for Headerless Data
read_cb_hl()

# Read Clipboard as a Tribble for Copy and Paste
read_cb_trbl()
read_cb_trbl(header = FALSE)
read_cb_trbl(quote = "'")
read_cb_trbl(header = FALSE, quote = "'")
