I use Windows and try to read .Rdata file to RMarkdown using rio’s import function. It keeps giving me errors. This works just fine when I’m using R code in the same folder.
So here is the code in the first RMarkdown code chunk
{r setup, include = FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = FALSE)
library(tidyverse)
library(rio)
df_clean <- import("data/df_clean.rdata")
Error in import("data/df_clean.rdata") : No such file
Is there a different between using R Code or RMarkdown? This also works fine when I type it in the R console, but doesn’t work in the R Code chunk in the RMarkdown.
When I check in the working directory, the file is there
> getwd()
[1] "C:/Users/Project/Project A"
> list.files()
[1] "code" "data"
[3] "documentation" "output"
> list.files("data")
[1] "archive" "df_clean.rdata" "df_unique.rdata"
I’m new to R and just start coding this year. I hope I can do my EDA in RMarkdown to become more organized. Kindly help me with the question format if I did not posted it correctly.
>Solution :
if you unsure of the file path of the RData to import, use this to make Selection manually first..
df_clean <- import(file.choose())
or you can also get the full path of your RData stored in variable by doing:
RData_path <- file.choose()
df_clean <- import(RData_path)
