Introduction to bulkreadr

Start here if this is your first time using bulkreadr. You’ll learn how to use functions like read_excel_workbook() and read_excel_files_from_dir() for importing data from Excel and read_gsheets() for Google Sheets, allowing for data importation from multiple sheets. For handling CSV files, read_csv_files_from_dir() reads all CSV files from a specified directory.

Introduction to labelled data

The R ecosystem, through packages like foreign and haven, facilitates the importation of labelled data from software like SPSS and Stata, ensuring a smooth transition into R. This vignette introduces you to other functions in bulkreadr, such as read_spss_data(), which extends this functionality by leveraging haven to streamline the process further.

Other functions in bulkreadr

The bulkreadr package includes specialized functions beyond bulk data reading, aimed at enhancing data analysis efficiency. These functions are designed to operate on individual vectors, except for inspect_na() and fill_missing_values(), which work on data frames.
