Save a scopus_records tibble to disk and read it back, with a stable
round-trip. The file extension selects the format. An .rds file preserves
the types and class exactly, while a .csv file is portable plain text.
The optional authkeywords column a view = "COMPLETE" retrieval adds
(see scopus_records()) round-trips through both formats.
Arguments
- x
A scopus_records tibble to write.
- path
Explicit file path. The functions read from, or write to, exactly this path and leave the working directory alone. Parent directories are assumed to exist already.
Value
write_scopus_records() returns x invisibly. read_scopus_records()
returns a scopus_records tibble.
Examples
# A round trip on the bundled corpus of real articles, which stands in for
# a retrieval of your own because 'Scopus' records may not be redistributed.
# The .rds form restores the object exactly.
rds <- tempfile(fileext = ".rds")
write_scopus_records(example_records, rds)
identical(read_scopus_records(rds), example_records)
#> [1] TRUE
# The .csv form is portable plain text and reads back to the same schema.
csv <- tempfile(fileext = ".csv")
write_scopus_records(example_records, csv)
head(read_scopus_records(csv))
#> <scopus_records> 6 records
#> query: "graphene supercapacitor"
