R: Tidiers for a corpus object from the quanteda package

corpus_tidiers {tidytext} | R Documentation

## Tidiers for a corpus object from the quanteda package

### Description

Tidy a corpus object from the quanteda package. `tidy` returns a tbl_df with one-row-per-document, with a `text` column containing the document's text, and one column for each document-level metadata. `glance` returns a one-row tbl_df with corpus-level metadata, such as source and created. For Corpus objects from the tm package, see `tidy.Corpus`.

### Usage

    ## S3 method for class 'corpus'
    tidy(x, ...)

    ## S3 method for class 'corpus'
    glance(x, ...)

### Arguments

`x` | A Corpus object, such as a VCorpus or PCorpus
`...` | Extra arguments, not used

### Details

For the most part, the `tidy` output is equivalent to the "documents" data frame in the corpus object, except that it is converted to a tbl_df, and `texts` column is renamed to `text` to be consistent with other uses in tidytext.

Similarly, the `glance` output is simply the "metadata" object, with NULL fields removed and turned into a one-row tbl_df.

### Examples

    if (requireNamespace("quanteda", quietly = FALSE)) {
     data("inaugCorpus", package = "quanteda")

     inaugCorpus

     tidy(inaugCorpus)
    }
