msgpack_write {RcppMsgPack}

'MsgPack' write

Description

A helper function to serialize an object and write it to a file, or a connection.

Usage

msgpack_write(..., msg = NULL, file, mode = "auto")

msgpackWrite(..., msg = NULL, file, mode = "auto")

Arguments

...

Serializable R objects.

msg

Message to write to file. If not NULL and a raw vector, write it instead of the R objects. Default: NULL.

file

A connection, or a string describing the file or pipe to write to, depending on the mode.

mode

One of "auto", "file", "gzip" or "pipe". If "auto", detects based on the file string (any space == pipe, ".gz" == gzip, file otherwise). Ignored if file is a connection.

Examples

tmp <- tempfile(fileext=".gz")
msgpack_write(1:10, file=tmp)
x <- msgpack_read(tmp, simplify=TRUE)
