The pepr package: Portable Encapsulated Projects in R

pepr is an R package for reading Portable Encapsulated Projects, or PEPs, in R. If you describe your project (configuration and samples) according to this format, you can load all project metadata into R using the pepr package. To test pepr, you can try loading one of the example PEPs.

Complete documentation and API for the pepr R package is at code.databio.org/pepr.

Quick start:

Install from CRAN:

install.packages("pepr")

Load a project and explore metadata like this:

library("pepr")
cfgPath= system.file(
"extdata",
"example_peps-master",
"example_basic",
"project_config.yaml",
package="pepr"
)
p= Project(file=cfgPath)
sampleTable(p)
config(p)
