nyt_bind_news_desk_lookups: Clean 'news_desk' values

In seanangio/nytindia: Prepare and visualize India-tagged data from the NYT Article Search API

Description

Values for 'news_desk' are often slightly different spellings of the same item. There are too many instances to fix with a case_when() statement so use the shiny app to create a lookup table (nyt_run_example("lookup_table_app")). Place the output of the app into the folder "renamed_news_desks". If you don't have a file of replacements in the "renamed_news_desks" folder, it will skip that step.

Usage

nyt_bind_news_desk_lookups(news_desk_output_folder = "renamed_news_desks")

nyt_clean_news_desks(
  combined_df,
  news_desk_output_folder = "renamed_news_desks"
)

Arguments

news_desk_output_folder	folder to find news desks post-cleaning
combined_df	output of nyt_clean_api_tbl()

Details

You may not be able to write out the entire lookup table in one file so you first need to bind together multiple files, if they exist.

Value

nyt_clean_news_desks() returns a nested df where news desk values have been consolidated based on the lookup table created from the shiny app

Examples

## Not run: 
nested_df <- nyt_clean_news_desks(combined_df)

## End(Not run)
