probe_list: Generate List of Exploration 'search_term' Function Calls

Description Usage Arguments Value See Also Examples

View source: R/probe_list.R

Description

The task of determining the regexes used to feed a term_count object's term.list requires careful exploration of term use in context. This function generates a list of function calls for search_term with a user predefined data set and term list.

Usage

1
probe_list(terms, data.name, copy2clip = getOption("termco.copy2clip"))

Arguments

terms

A vector of regex terms to explore (often populated from frequent_terms.

data.name

A character vector of a data set's name that will serve as the search context.

copy2clip

logical. If codeTRUE uses write_clip to copy the output to the clipboard. This option is most useful when trying to build a list regular expression model for easy pasting between testing a regex and putting it into the model. This argument can be set globally by setting options(termco.copy2clip = TRUE).

Value

Returns a string with the concatenated function calls. The print method separates the concatenated string into new line function calls. If copy2clip = TRUE the calls are easily pasted for use in exploration of the terms in the text data set.
