read_tabde: Read a table definition file

In s-fleck/tabde: Define and Check The Structure of Data Frames and Database Tables

Description

tabde recommends that you store table designs as semicolon (;) separated csv files without rownames. read_tabde() reads such files and assigns the correct table_design subclasses based on the columns that are present in file (f.e. table_design_sql, table_design_fwf).

Usage

read_tabde(file)

read_tabde_sql(file)

read_tabde_fwf(file)

write_tabde(x, file, overwrite = FALSE)

Arguments

file	character scalar. File that contains a table design
x	a table_design Object
overwrite	scalar character. Overwrite file if it exists?

Value

read_tabde() and friends return a table_design data.frame

write_tabde() and use_tabde() return file (invisibly). This is useful for piping the saved file, for example into shed (Shiny CSV Editor).
