In phillydao/deidentify: De-identifies Data for Public Release

De-identify data through encrypting text columns, grouping rare values, and, aggregating numeric or date columns.

deidentify_data(
  data,
  date_cols = NULL,
  date_aggregation = c("week", "month", "bimonth", "quarter", "halfyear", "year"),
  cols_to_encrypt = NULL,
  group_rare_values_cols = NULL,
  group_rare_values_limit = 5,
  group_rare_values_text = NULL,
  quiet = FALSE
)

`data`	A data.frame with the data you want to de-identify.
`date_cols`	A vector of strings with the name of date columns that you want to be aggregated to the unit set in the `date_aggregation` parameter. If NULL, will use all date columns in the data.
`date_aggregation`	A string with the time unit to aggregate all Date variables to. Can take one of the following: 'week', 'month', 'bimonth', 'quarter', 'halfyear', 'year'.
`cols_to_encrypt`	A string or vector of strings with the columns that you want to encrypt.
`group_rare_values_cols`	A string or vector of strings with the columns that you want to convert rare values (below a certain percent of all values as set in `group_rare_values_limit`) into NA or a particular string (or NA) set in `group_rare_values_text`.
`group_rare_values_limit`	A string or vector of strings (one for each col in `group_rare_values_cols`) for what threshold (in percent of all non-NA values) to determine that a value is rare enough to change to NA (or the string set in `group_rare_values_text`).
`group_rare_values_text`	A string or vector of strings (one for each col in `group_rare_values_cols`) for what to rename the values that are determined to be rare enough (based on threshold set in `group_rare_values_limit` to rename them. If NULL (default), and the vector is strings, replaces them with a string that concatenates all of the rare values together (separated by a comma). If NA, replaces them with NA.
`quiet`	A Boolean for whether you want to output a message that tells you which columns that you are encrypting and the seed set for each column to do the encryption. If you don't set the seed yourself, you need these seeds to decrypt.
