provParseR

Parses the provenance collected by rdtLite or rdt and returns selected provenance as an R data frame.

Installation

Install from GitHub:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("End-to-end-provenance/provParseR")

Once installed, load the package:

library("provParseR")

Usage

The prov.parse function parses the prov.json file or string created by rdtLite or rdt and returns an R object of class ProvInfo. This object can then be queried to return a data frame containing the desired values. For example:

prov <- prov.parse("c:/prov/prov.json")
data.nodes <- get.data.nodes(prov)

creates an R object “prov” (where the path to the provenance file is “c:/prov/prov.json”) and a data frame “data.nodes” that contains all data nodes in the provenance graph.

The access functions below return a data frame with the specified content. For more details, please see the help pages for provParseR.
