Import feature metadata from a csv file — import_fmetadata

Reads a csv file and returns a dataframe in which the rows correspond to features (e.g. markers, genes, phenotypes...) and columns correspond to information about the features. Non-ASCII characters are replaced with ASCII equivalents (using the stringi and textclean packages).

Usage

import_fmetadata_csv(file, col_id, ...)

Arguments

file: Character, path to the dataset csv file.
col_id: Character, the name of the column in the file that contains the feature IDs.
...: Further arguments passed to readr::read_csv().

Value

A data-frame with the features as rows and features information as columns. Feature IDs are used as row names.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
geno_info_features <- import_fmetadata_csv(
  "genotype_features_info.csv",
  col_id = "Marker"
)
} # }
