vec_as_names_legacy

Repair names with legacy method


Description

This standardises names with the legacy approach that was used in tidyverse packages (such as tibble, tidyr, and readxl) before vec_as_names() was implemented. This tool is meant to help transitioning to the new name repairing standard and will be deprecated and removed from the package some time in the future.

Usage

vec_as_names_legacy(names, prefix = "V", sep = "")

Arguments

names

A character vector.

prefix, sep

Prefix and separator for repaired names.

Examples

if (rlang::is_installed("tibble")) {

library(tibble)

# Names repair is turned off by default in tibble:
try(tibble(a = 1, a = 2))

# You can turn it on by supplying a repair method:
tibble(a = 1, a = 2, .name_repair = "universal")

# If you prefer the legacy method, use `vec_as_names_legacy()`:
tibble(a = 1, a = 2, .name_repair = vec_as_names_legacy)

}
