Keep Validated Entries in Log for Further Validation

keep_validated_entries.Rd

This function compares an existing log and new log and keeps entries that have been validated in the existing log and created in the new log.

Usage

keep_validated_entries(existing_log, new_log)

Arguments

existing_log

data.frame A log created with the ohcleandat package

new_log

data.frame A different log created with the ohcleandat package. Set to NULL to return validated entries from existing log.

Value

data.frame An ohcleandat log based on the existing log.

Details

This is used in the free_text other_choices validation sequence to reduce the number of times a record is validated twice. In this use case, questions that contain an "other choice" are identified in a look up table. If they have been validated in the free text log, then they can be flagged in the other_choice log.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
 existing_log <- get_dropbox_val_logs(file_name = "log.csv", folder = NULL)

 odk_schema_data <- schema_from_odk_xlsx_template(file_path = "inst/example_odk_schema.xlsx")

 new_log  <- create_free_text_log(response_data = semi_clean_data,
                      form_schema = odk_schema_data,
                      url = "https://odk.xyz.io/#/projects/project-name/submissions",
                      existing_log = existing_log)

 keep_validated_entries(existing_log,new_log)
