datapackage

datapackage is an R-package to work with Data Packages. Data Packages are a combination of data and meta data. The meta data contains a description of the data and contains information like a title, description of the data set and a description of the fields in each of the datasets in the Data Package. The datapackage R-package offers methods for reading and inspecting Data Packages as well as creating and modifying Data Packages. More information can be found in the vignettes of the package:

The package supports CSV-files out of the box. Other file formats are supported through plugins.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
