stackDataFilesParallel

Join data files in a unzipped NEON data package by table type

Description

Given a folder of unzipped files (unzipped NEON data file), do a full join of all data files, grouped by table type. This should result in a small number of large files.

Usage

stackDataFilesParallel(folder, nCores = 1, dpID)

Arguments

`folder`	The location of the data
`nCores`	The number of cores to parallelize the stacking procedure. To automatically use the maximum number of cores on your machine we suggest setting 'nCores=parallel::detectCores()'. By default it is set to a single core. If the files are less than 25000 bytes the userdefined nCores will be overridden to a single core.
`dpID`	The data product identifier

Value

One file for each table type is created and written.
