R/extract_yaml_dir.R
extract_yaml_dir.RdThese function extracts all YAML fragments from all files in a directory returning a list of character vectors containing the extracted fragments.
extract_yaml_dir(
path,
recursive = TRUE,
fileRegexes = c("^[^\\.]+.*$"),
delimiterRegEx = "^---$",
ignoreOddDelimiters = FALSE,
encoding = "UTF-8",
silent = TRUE
)The path containing the files.
Whether to also process subdirectories (TRUE)
or not (FALSE).
A vector of regular expressions to match the files
against: only files matching one or more regular expressions in this
vector are processed. The default regex (^[^\.]+.*$) matches all
files except those that start with a period (.).
The regular expression used to locate YAML fragments.
Whether to throw an error (FALSE) or delete the last delimiter (TRUE) if an odd number of delimiters is encountered.
The encoding to use when calling readLines(). Set to
NULL to let readLines() guess.
Whether to be silent (TRUE) or informative (FALSE).
A list of character vectors.
### First get the directory where 'yum' is installed
yumDir <- system.file(package="yum");
### Specify the path of some example files
examplePath <- file.path(yumDir, "extdata");
### Show files (should be three .dct files)
list.files(examplePath);
#> [1] "attitude.dct" "behavior.dct" "intention.dct"
### Load these files
yum::extract_yaml_dir(path=examplePath);
