Read TSV and Filter on the Fly

read_tsv_filtered(file, filter_expression, ...)

Arguments

file

file	(chr) Filename to read in
filter_expression	(bare) The expression passed to `dplyr::filter()`
...	Arguments passed on to `readr::read_tsv` `quote` Single character used to quote strings. `col_names` Either `TRUE`, `FALSE` or a character vector of column names.If `TRUE`, the first row of the input will be used as the column names, and will not be included in the data frame. If `FALSE`, column names will be generated automatically: X1, X2, X3 etc.If `col_names` is a character vector, the values will be used as the names of the columns, and the first row of the input will be read into the first row of the output data frame.Missing (`NA`) column names will generate a warning, and be filled in with dummy names `X1`, `X2` etc. Duplicate column names will generate a warning and be made unique with a numeric prefix. `col_types` One of `NULL`, a `cols()` specification, or a string. See `vignette("readr")` for more details.If `NULL`, all column types will be imputed from the first 1000 rows on the input. This is convenient (and fast), but not robust. If the imputation fails, you'll need to supply the correct types yourself.If a column specification created by `cols()`, it must contain one column specification for each column. If you only want to read a subset of the columns, use `cols_only()`.Alternatively, you can use a compact string representation where each character represents one column: c = character, i = integer, n = number, d = double, l = logical, f = factor, D = date, T = date time, t = time, ? = guess, or `_`/`-` to skip the column. `locale` The locale controls defaults that vary from place to place. The default locale is US-centric (like R), but you can use `locale()` to create your own locale that controls things like the default time zone, encoding, decimal mark, big mark, and day/month names. `na` Character vector of strings to interpret as missing values. Set this option to `character()` to indicate no missing values. `quoted_na` Should missing values inside quotes be treated as missing values (the default) or strings. `comment` A string used to identify comments. Any text after the comment characters will be silently ignored. `trim_ws` Should leading and trailing whitespace be trimmed from each field before parsing it? `skip` Number of lines to skip before reading data. `n_max` Maximum number of records to read. `guess_max` Maximum number of records to use for guessing column types. `progress` Display a progress bar? By default it will only display in an interactive session and not while knitting a document. The display is updated every 50,000 values and will only display if estimated reading time is 5 seconds or more. The automatic progress bar can be disabled by setting option `readr.show_progress` to `FALSE`. `skip_empty_rows` Should blank rows be ignored altogether? i.e. If this option is `TRUE` then blank rows will not be represented at all. If it is `FALSE` then they will be represented by `NA` values in all the columns.

quote: Single character used to quote strings.
col_names: Either TRUE, FALSE or a character vector of column names.If TRUE, the first row of the input will be used as the column names, and will not be included in the data frame. If FALSE, column names will be generated automatically: X1, X2, X3 etc.If col_names is a character vector, the values will be used as the names of the columns, and the first row of the input will be read into the first row of the output data frame.Missing (NA) column names will generate a warning, and be filled in with dummy names X1, X2 etc. Duplicate column names will generate a warning and be made unique with a numeric prefix.
col_types: One of NULL, a cols() specification, or a string. See vignette("readr") for more details.If NULL, all column types will be imputed from the first 1000 rows on the input. This is convenient (and fast), but not robust. If the imputation fails, you'll need to supply the correct types yourself.If a column specification created by cols(), it must contain one column specification for each column.

locale: The locale controls defaults that vary from place to place. The default locale is US-centric (like R), but you can use locale() to create your own locale that controls things like the default time zone, encoding, decimal mark, big mark, and day/month names.

quoted_na: Should missing values inside quotes be treated as missing values (the default) or strings.
