df2yaml.RmdGetting started
df2yaml is an R package distributed as part of the CRAN. To install the package, start R and enter:
# install via CRAN
install.package("df2yaml")
# install via Github
# install.package("remotes") #In case you have not installed it.
remotes::install_github("showteeth/df2yaml")In general, it is recommended to install from Github repository (update more timely).
Once df2yaml is installed, it can be loaded by the following command.
library(df2yaml)Introduction
The goal of df2yaml is simplify the process of converting dataframe to YAML. The dataframe with multiple key columns and one value column (this column can also contain key-value pair(s)) will be converted to multi-level hierarchy.
Usage
Load the test data, this test data contains two key columns (paras and subcmd) and one value column, the value column also contains key and value pair(s) separated by “:”.
# library
library(df2yaml)
# load test file
test_file <- system.file("extdata", "df2yaml_l3.txt", package = "df2yaml")
test_data = read.table(file = test_file, header = T, sep = "\t")
head(test_data)

#> 4 qualimap --java-mem-size=20G -outformat HTML
#> 5 rseqc mapq: 30; percentile-floor: 5; percentile-step: 5
# output yaml string
yaml_res = df2yaml(df = test_data, key_col = c("paras", "subcmd"), val_col = "values")
cat(yaml_res)

#> markdup:

#> VALIDATION_STRINGENCY: SILENTConvert above dataframe to YAML:
yaml_res = df2yaml(df = test_data, key_col = c("paras", "subcmd"), val_col = "values")
cat(yaml_res)
#> preseq: -r 100 -seg_len 100000000
#> qualimap: --java-mem-size=20G -outformat HTML
#> rseqc:

#> picard:
#> insert_size:
#> MINIMUM_PCT: 0.5
#> markdup:
#> CREATE_INDEX: true
#> VALIDATION_STRINGENCY: SILENTThere is no limit to the number of key columns used to convert.
