Intakes the output of check_ecp in order to apply additional processing. This includes creating a new check_name_app column to specify that the check was computed at the person level.

Usage

process_ecp(ecp_results, rslt_source = "remote", csv_rslt_path = NULL)

Arguments

ecp_results

tabular input || required

The tabular output of check_ecp. This table should include results for all institutions that should be included in the computation of overall / "network level" statistics.

rslt_source

string || defaults to remote

A string that identifies the location of the ecp_results table. Acceptable values are

  • local - table is stored as a dataframe in the local R environment

  • csv - table is stored as a CSV file

  • remote - table is stored on a remote database

csv_rslt_path

string || defaults to NULL

If rslt_source has been set to csv, this parameter should indicate the path to the result file(s). Otherwise, this parameter can be left as NULL

Value

This function will return the ecp_results table with and additional check_name_app column to indicate application level

Examples

# This function should be run after check_ecp has been executed for all
# network institutions and results have been combined into a common table

# Once the labels have been applied, the function can be executed
## When results are kept locally:
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
my_ecp_process <- process_ecp(ecp_results = my_ecp_rslts,
                              rslt_source = 'local')
} # }

## When results are kept in CSV files:
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
my_ecp_process <- process_ecp(ecp_results = 'my_ecp_rslts',
                              rslt_source = 'csv',
                              csv_rslt_path = 'path/to/my/results')
} # }

## When results are kept on a remote database:
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
my_ecp_process <- process_ecp(ecp_results = 'my_ecp_rslts',
                              rslt_source = 'remote')
} # }
