Support function to merge run statistics which have been derived
with runstatistics
Usage
mergestatistics(
dir = ".",
file = NULL,
renew = FALSE,
quickcheck = FALSE,
pattern = "*\\.[rR]da",
removeCols = NULL,
keepCols = NULL
)Arguments
- dir
Path to the run statistics repository
- file
path to an rds-file the data should be written to and from which (if existing) already merged data can be read from
- renew
if set to TRUE the full data.table will be created again from scratch, if set to FALSE merging will start with the existing file (if it exists) and just add missing entries
- quickcheck
If active, the function compares last modification dates of repository data and and merged statistics and cancels execution in case that there is no newer file in the data repository (assuming that merge statistics are already complete). This is useful if this function is run frequently and execution time plays a role, but might lead to cases in which the function is not run even if the merge statistics are incomplete.
- pattern
detection pattern for rda files that should be merged
- removeCols
vector of columns that will be filtered out
- keepCols
only these columns will be kept, if NULL all columns will be kept
