similar to: unexpected behavior from gzfile and unz

Dear List, Does somebody know how to get the filename lists in the ziped when "gzfile" or "unz" command is used ? Thanks for your help. Shawn Lee -- The information contained in this communication and any atta...{{dropped}}

Hi again, The unz connection is non-blocking by default. I checked do_unz which calls R_newunz which calls init_con and the only place in any of those functions that sets 'blocking' is init_con which sets it to FALSE: https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/0c26529e807a9b1dd65f7324958c17bf72e1de1a/src/main/connections.c#L713 I'll open an issue on R-bugzilla and see if they're

Not sure this is a bug in R. Maybe its a bug in my understanding of unz(). The character 'b2' (hexadecimal) is in position 535 of line 1 of 'naughty.csv'. This character appears as superscript '2' and came to me in an EXCEL file that I converted to text in a comma separated ( *.csv ) format. The first line gets truncated by readLines after 534 characters using unz():

I am having problems getting the unz() function to work as a connection to start reading a file... z <- unz("c:/temp/stoxx.zip", "close_tmi_components.txt", "r") readLines(z,2) yields the following problems: > z <- unz("c:/temp/stoxx.zip", "close_tmi_components.txt", "r") Error in unz("c:/temp/stoxx.zip",

Hi, you could use "scan" instead, it seems to work fine also when wrapped around "unz". Or, alternatively, you could use "unzip" instead of "unz". It works as expected, i.e. reads the last incomplete line and throws a warning about this. So it seems to me that "unz" creates a non-blocking connection, whereas "unzip" creates a

Dear list, I'm seeing a strange interaction with readLines() and unz() when reading a file without an empty final line. The final line gets dropped silently: > cat("hello", file = "hello.txt") > zip("hello.zip", "hello.txt") adding: hello.txt (stored 0%) > readLines(unz("hello.zip", "hello.txt")) character(0) The

I would greatly appreciate some example of correct usage of function unz. I have to download and uncompress the following web compressef file: ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/mirbase/targets/v5/arch.v5.txt.homo_sapiens.zip I tried the following command that does not work: Targets.rec <- readLines(zz <- unz("ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/mirbase/targets/v5/arch.v5.txt.homo_sapiens.zip"))

Hi Sorry, I am clearly missing something here. I want to read this file directly: ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/mirbase/targets/v5/arch.v5.txt.gallus_gallus. zip I tried using read.table(gzfile("ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/mirbase/targets/v5/arch.v5 .txt.gallus_gallus.zip")) But I got an error: Error in open.connection(file, "r") : cannot open the connection In addition:

But note: > zip("hello.zip", "hello.txt") updating: hello.txt (stored 0%) > readChar(unz("hello.zip","hello.txt"),100) [1] "hello" I leave it to you and other wiser heads to figure out.

When I read a .gz file with readLines() in 3.4.3, it returns text (and a warning). In 3.5.0, it gives a warning, but no text. Is this expected behavior or a bug? 3.4.3: > source_file = "1k_annotation.gz" > readfile_con <- gzfile(source_file, "r") > readLines(readfile_con, n = 5) [1] "#chr\tpos\tref\talt\t <truncated output here> Warning message: In

Hi, I have some text files that do not have trailing \n on the last (incomplete) line; how do I read in the last line? e.g. here is a test case: [linux + R version 2.6.1 (2007-11-26) ] z <- gzfile("short.gz", open="w") cat("7\n5\n3", file=z) close(z) z <- gzfile('short.gz') readLines(z) [1] "7" "5" readLines would indicate that

Hello ... Are there any known problems or even gotchas to look out for when using a gzfile connection in read.csv/read.table in Windows? In the package PROcess, available at www.bioconductor.org/repository/devel/package/html/PROcess.html there are two files in the PROcess/inst/Test directory which are of the extension *.csv.gz. With both files, if I open up a gzfile connection, say: vv <-

If I open a tgz archive with gzfile and then parse it using readLines I miss the initial line of each member of the archive - and also the name of the file although the archive otherwise complete (but useless!). Is there any way within R to extract both the list of files in a tgz archive and to extract any one of these files? Clearly I can use zcat and tar on Linux, but I need this to work

Hi, I am making multiple calls to gzfile() via read.table(), e.g. > x <- read.table( gzfile( "xxx.gz" ) ) After i do this many times (I haven't counted, but probably between 50 and 100 times) I get the error message: Error in open.connection(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open compressed file 'xxx.gz' however, I

Hi, I'm running into more issues when reading data from a gzfile connection. If I read the data sequentially with successive calls to readBin(), the data I get looks ok. But if I call seek() between the successive calls to readBin(), I get corrupted data. Here is a (hopefully) reproducible example. See my sessionInfo() at the end (I'm not on Windows, where, according to the man page,

Found the simpliest way of seeing I bug I encountered doing "R CMD check --use-gct": Just launch R (with --vanilla), and do this: > ?gctorture # this work > gctorture() > ?gctorture Error in gzfile(file, "rb") : can only weakly reference/finalize reference objects # this does not It seems that when gctorture() is on gzfile() doesn't work.

Hi, I have downloaded a bunch of bz2 files. I wonder if R will be able to unzip them in a batch mode or even one at a time? I was looking at the unz function. But it didn't work well. Say I have a bz2 file in H:/Temp/65502805_532.pair.bz2. Anyone has any suggestion? thanks John > setwd("H:\\Temp\\") > getwd() [1] "H:/Temp" >

Hi! I'm trying to read individual files from a ZIP archive, using the unz() function. Some of the files contain non-ASCII characters and I'd like to avoid unpacking them in a temporary directory. My problem is that unz() seems to ignore the encoding="latin1" option I need to read the non-ASCII characters properly. I can't find a clear indication in the documentation that
