Create rules from the codebook using validate::validator()

Source: R/create_rules.R, R/factcurator_wrappers.R
create_rules.Rd

This functions reads in codebooks_all_db.csv and generates rules from the information provided in this main codebook

Usage

create_rules(df_type, db_folder, blends = FALSE, crop_types)

create.rules(df_type, db_folder)

Arguments

df_type

A string "trial_data" or "trials_metadata" denoting the type of validation rules to generate

db_folder

A string path to the database controlled vocabulary folder

blends

A logical denoting whether there are blends stored in the variety column in df_type = "trial_data"

crop_types

A vector containing the crop_types. This is used to select the appropriate traits if codebook_name == "trial_data"

Details

Note: grepl returns FALSE if the tested object is NA, so NAs are not correctly detected in grepl checks. Currently, the validator package does not accept str_detect. As a workaround, for date fields, an extra check for NAs is implemented.
