Emulate readxl::read_xlsx()

[chainsawriot]

These are the current arguments of readxl::read_xlsx() (v1.4.3)

read_xlsx(
  path,
  sheet = NULL,
  range = NULL,
  col_names = TRUE,
  col_types = NULL,
  na = "",
  trim_ws = TRUE,
  skip = 0,
  n_max = Inf,
  guess_max = min(1000, n_max),
  progress = readxl_progress(),
  .name_repair = "unique"
)

This is readODS::read_ods()

readODS/R/read_ods.R

Lines 274 to 286 in 38cefb8

	read_ods <- function(path,
	sheet = 1,
	col_names = TRUE,
	col_types = NULL,
	na = "",
	skip = 0,
	formula_as_formula = FALSE,
	range = NULL,
	row_names = FALSE,
	strings_as_factors = FALSE,
	verbose = FALSE,
	as_tibble = TRUE,
	.name_repair = "unique") {

We have some more, but there are parameters we could potentially add:

• trim_ws
• n_max
• guess_max
• progress

Except progress, all of them look easy to add.

readr::type_convert sadly doesn't have a guess_max argument, and so we won't be able to add that either unless we rewrite the type guessing (which I am not recommending we do).

Reopen this, because of gesistsa/minty#33

[chainsawriot]

minty 0.0.4 is on CRAN. So, guess_max is now possible.
