Reading a multiple key-value file












0















Is there a way to read following type of text file in R



Key1=Value11|Key2=Value21|Key3=Value31|...
Key1=Value12|Key2=Value22|Key3=Value32|...
Key1=Value13|Key2=Value23|Key3=Value33|...


I want to create a data frame like



Key1|Key2|Key3
Value11|Value21|Value31
Value12|Value22|Value32
Value13|Value23|Value33

          Perhaps something like this?



          library(dplyr)
          read.table(text =
          "Key1=Value11|Key2=Value21|Key3=Value31
          Key1=Value12|Key2=Value22|Key3=Value32
          Key1=Value13|Key2=Value23|Key3=Value33", sep = "|") %>%
          mutate_all(funs(gsub("Key\d+=", "", .)))
          # V1 V2 V3
          #1 Value11 Value21 Value31
          #2 Value12 Value22 Value32
          #3 Value13 Value23 Value33


          Explanation:





          1. read.table(..., sep = "|") reads in your file with | as the field separator.


          2. mutate_all(funs(gsub("Key\d+=", "", .))) removes the Key1=, Key2=, Key3= parts.

          • For completeness, you probably want to set names(df) <- c("Key1", "Key2", "Key3")
