The following functions are implemented: - `incant` : returns the "magic" metadata of the files in the input vector (as a data frame) The following data sets are included: - (eventually will be an internal mime types db) ### Installation ``` r devtools::install_github("hrbrmstr/wand") ``` ### Usage ``` r library(wand) library(magrittr) library(dplyr) system.file("img", package="wand") %>% list.files(full.names=TRUE) %>% incant() %>% glimpse() ``` ## Observations: 10 ## Variables: 5 ## $ file "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3/Resources/library/wand/img/example_dir", "/Librar... ## $ mime_type "inode/directory", "text/x-c", "text/html", "text/plain", "text/rtf", "image/jpeg", "applicatio... ## $ encoding "binary", "us-ascii", "us-ascii", "us-ascii", "us-ascii", "binary", "binary", "binary", "us-asc... ## $ extensions NA, "???", "???", "???", "???", "jpeg/jpg/jpe/jfif", "???", "???", "???", "???" ## $ description "directory", "C source, ASCII text", "HTML document, ASCII text, with CRLF line terminators", "... ``` r # current verison packageVersion("wand") ``` ## [1] '0.1.0' ### Test Results ``` r library(wand) library(testthat) date() ``` ## [1] "Fri Aug 12 21:41:40 2016" ``` r test_dir("tests/") ``` ## testthat results ======================================================================================================== ## OK: 0 SKIPPED: 0 FAILED: 0 ## ## DONE ===================================================================================================================
