Big thanks. newXMLNode works great. Wonder why it is not included in the documentation. There is newXMLDoc and newXMLNamespace, but no mention of newXMLNode.

Hi, It's a reasonable question. The answer is that it actually is included, but there are many instances across packages where multiple functions are documented on a single help page. The following brings up such a page... (for XML_3.98-1.9) > library(XML) > ?newXMLNode You can see the same on line... https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/XML/versions/3.98-1.9/topics/newXMLDoc

Just to clarify and hopefully catch the attention of the maintainer: The newXMLNode function is not mentioned in: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/XML/XML.pdf which supposedly describes all functions in the package.

Thanks to all that replied. I had just looked through the httr code and sure enough for a .csv mime time it calls readr::read_csv(). The httr::content docs suggest not using automatic parsing in a package, rather to determine mime type and parse yourself and Ben's suggestion also works if I do: junk <- readr::read_csv(r1$content, col_types = cols()) Perfect. Using httr rather than

I am trying to add a child to a child using XML package in R. the following fails library(XML) node1 <- c("val1","val2","val3") names(node1) <- c("att1","att2","att3") root <- xmlNode("root", attrs=node1) node2 <- LETTERS[1:3] names(node2) <- paste("name",1:3,sep="") root <-

Dear All, I have a script that draws longitude and latitude of lightning occurrence. This script was running fine before. But when I changed my system and do a fresh install on another laptop, this error persist. source("script") Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : could not find function "pointsToRaster" I have tried to see if there is any other package I need to install

Indeed, Ben, but the question was something more like it is not a Dependency, just Suggested, so why the error... John: If you read the Introduction to the 'raster' package vignette, it indicates that some input formats are supported within the raster package and some rely on other packages. Clearly the attempt to read a TIFF was an example of the latter. Had you used a different input

Hi I have lots of issues when I try to install R 3.3.3 during the "make check" step. Every time a call to as.POSIXct is done in test scripts, I got the same error message: e.g. x <- as.POSIXct("2002-02-02 02:02") Error in as.POSIXlt.character(x, tz, ...) : character string is not in a standard unambiguous format It looks to be linked to localtime but when I compiled

Hi, If you are using roxygen-style function documentation then why not use devtools::document()?

Hello everyone! I'm in the process of writing a package, and I'm using the lovely "R Package" book as a guideline. However, in the midst of my work, I discovered that I had omitted a function and am now putting in it the package. Not a problem. But the problem is the help file. What is the best way to generate a help file "after the fact" like that, please? Thank

Hi, A terrific resource for this type of issue (and pretty much anything related to R) is http://rseek.org/ I'm sure I use it at least daily. Check out ... http://rseek.org/?q=pointsToRaster The first hit is about pointsToRaster() - it has been replaced by raster::rasterize() Cheers, Ben > On Apr 30, 2016, at 4:28 AM, Ogbos Okike <giftedlife2014 at gmail.com> wrote: > >

Hi, XML doesn't use the `$` to access child nodes. Instead use either `[name]` to get a list of children of that name or `[[name]]` to get the just the first child of that name encountered in the genealogy. Thus for your example... > root$child1 NULL > root[['child1']] <child1 name1="A" name2="B" name3="C"/> On the other hand, you might

Hi Ben, That's exactly right! Except for each set it's the sample population that is 400, 800 or 300. I want to take 3 samples, each of 100, where only the population differs. I can do this separately, but I'm having trouble putting them all on the same graph. I'd like to have sample on the x axis (1-300) and estimate on the y axis. I want to show how population affects the

Ahoy! That's a message generated by the readr::read_table() function (or it's friends). You can suppress it a number of ways, but this should work as httr::content() will pass through arguments, like col_types = cols(), to the file reader. junk <- httr::content(r1, col_types = cols()) See more here... https://blog.rstudio.com/2016/08/05/readr-1-0-0/
