Many of the functions in the workloopR package are built to facilitate batch processing of workloop and related data files. This vignette will start with an overview of how the functions were intended to be used for batch processing and then provide specific examples.
We generally expect a single file to store data from a single experimental trial, whereas directories hold data from all the trials of a single experiment. Accordingly, the muscle_stim objects created and used by most of the workloopR functions are intended to hold data from a single trial of a workloop or related experiment. Lists are then used to package together trials from a single experiment. This also lends itself to using recursion to transform and analyze all data from a single experiment.
In broad strokes, there are three ways that batch processing has been worked into workloopR functions. First, some functions like the *_dir() family of import functions and summarize_wl_trials() specifically generate or require lists of muscle_stim objects. Second, the first argument of all other functions are the objects being manipulated, which can help clean up recursion using the purrr::map() family of functions. Finally, some functions return summarized data as single rows of a data.frame that can easily be bound together to generate a summary table.
This vignette will rely heavily on the purrr::map() family of functions for recursion, though it should be mentioned that the base::apply() family of functions would work as well.
library(workloopR)
library(magrittr)
library(purrr)*_dir() functionsBoth read_ddf() and read_analyze_wl() have alternatives suffixed by _dir() to read in multiple files from a directory. Both take a path to the directory and an optional regular expression to filter files by and return a list of muscle_stim objects or analyzed_workloop objects, respectively.

Other arguments of read_ddf() and read_analyze_wl() can also be passed to their *_dir() alternatives as named arguments.

To facilitate this, summarize_wl_trials() specifically takes a list of analyzed_workloop objects and returns a data.frame of this information. We will explore ways of generating lists of analyzed workloops without using read_analyze_wl_dir() in the following section.

As with importing individual non-ddf data sources, we start by reading the data into a data.frame, only now we want a list of data.frames. In this example, we will read in csv files and stitch them into a list using purrr::map()
non_ddf_list<-
# Generate a vector of file names
system.file(
"extdata/twitch_csv",
package = 'workloopR') %>%
list.files(full.names = T) %>%
# Read into a list of data.frames
map(read.csv) %>%
# Coerce into a workloop object
map(as_muscle_stim, type = "twitch")Applying a constant transformation to a list of muscle_stim objects is fairly straightforward using purrr::map().
non_ddf_list<-
non_ddf_list %>%
map(~{
attr(.x,"stimulus_width")<-0.2
attr(.x,"stimulus_offset")<-0.1
return(.x)
}) %>%
map(fix_GR,2)Applying a non-constant transformation like setting a unique file ID can be done using purrr::map2().
file_ids<-paste0("0",1:4,"-",2:5,"mA-twitch.csv")
non_ddf_list<-
non_ddf_list %>%
map2(file_ids, ~{
attr(.x,"file_id")<-.y
return(.x)
