Macro Language R functions
The following section contains 1010data-supplied functions for interfacing with the Insights Platform.
- ColsMetaData(ops,table)
  Return the metadata for table with ops ops.
- ColNames(metadataobj)/ColKTypes(metadataobj)/ColLabels(metadataobj)
  Get/set a vector of names/Ktypes/labels from a metadata object.
- Data(ops,table,rows,cols)
  Get data for table with ops ops, and return the data as a data.frame.
- MakeMetaData(data,names,Ktypes,labels)
  Sets a new temporary table (worksheet) and returns a base op.
- MakeTable(data,labels)
  Takes a data.frame and returns a <tabu> object.
- Rebase(data,colsobj)
  Set a new temporary table (worksheet) and returns a base op.
- Rows(ops,table)
  Return the number of records after a query with base table table and query operations ops.
- SliceMetaData(colsobj,columnindices)
  Get a functional subset of a column's metadata object.
- Macro Language examples
  The following examples show how to implement various R applications within Macro Language code.

`ColsMetaData(ops,table)`

Return the metadata for table with ops ops.

Syntax

ColsMetaData(ops,table)

Arguments

ops: A list of ops
table: A path to a table object, with type character

Note: The metadata object is a complex set of attributes. In general, it is easier to use get/set functions to modify a metadata object than to modify it directly. The returned object contains information about the name, label, and type.

Example

colsobj <- ColsMetaData(ops,'path.to.table')
