importGridsuiteInternal: Internal parser for Gridsuite data files...

In OpenRepGrid: Tools to analyse repertory grid data

Description

Internal parser for Gridsuite data files

Usage

importGridsuiteInternal(file, dir)

Arguments

file	filename including path if file is not in current working directory. File can also be a complete URL. The fileformat is .dat.
dir	alternative way to supply the directory where the file is located (default NULL).

Note

The developers of Gridsuite have proposed to use an XML scheme as a standard exchange format for repertory grid data (Walter, Bacher & Fromm, 2004). This approach is also embraced by the OpenRepGrid package.

Note

TODO: The element and construct IDs are not used yet. Thus, if the output should be in different order the current mechanism will cause false assignments.

## Not run: 

# supposing that the data file gridsuite.xml is in the current directory
file <- "gridsuite.xml"
imp <- importGridsuite(file)

# specifying a directory (arbitrary example directory)
dir <- "/Users/markheckmann/data"
imp <- importGridsuite(file, dir)

# using a full path
imp <- importGridsuite("/Users/markheckmann/data/gridsuite.xml")

# load Gridsuite data from URL
imp <- importGridsuite("http://www.openrepgrid.uni-bremen.de/data/gridsuite.xml")
