Hello Experts:
I have this log file that has about 1200 characters (max) on a line. What I
want to do is read this first and then extract certain portions of the file
into new columns. I want to extract rows that contain the text “[DF_API:
input string]”. When I read it and then filter based on the rows that I am
interested, it almost seems like I am losing data. I tried this using the
dplyr filter and using standard grep with the same result.
Not sure why this is the case. Appreciate your help with this. The code and
the data is there at the following link. Satish
Code is given below
library(dplyr)
setwd("C:/Users/satis/Documents/VF/df_issue_dec01")
sec1 <- read.delim(file="secondary1_aa_small.log")
head(sec1)
names(sec1) <- c("V1")
sec1_test <- filter(sec1,str_detect(V1,"DF_API: input string")==TRUE)
head(sec1_test)
sec1_test2 = sec1[grep("DF_API: input string",sec1$V1, perl = TRUE),]
head(sec1_test2)
write.csv(sec1_test, file = "test_out.txt", row.names = F, quote = F)
write.csv(sec1_test2, file = "test2_out.txt", row.names = F, quote = F)
Data (and code) is given at the link below. Sorry, I should have used dput.
