Construct a blob object
new_blob()
is a low-level constructor that takes a list of
raw vectors.
blob()
constructs a blob from individual raw vectors.
as_blob()
and is_blob()
are simple forwarders to vctrs::vec_cast()
and inherits()
, respectively.

Individual raw vectors |
x |
A list of raw vectors, or other object to coerce |
as.blob()
for the legacy interface for specifying casts.
x1 <- charToRaw("Good morning") x2 <- as.raw(c(0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f)) new_blob(list(x1, x2)) blob(x1, x2) as.blob(c("Good morning", "Good evening"))
