URISource {tm} | R Documentation

## Uniform Resource Identifier Source

### Description

Create a uniform resource identifier source.

### Usage

    URISource(x, encoding = "", mode = "text")

### Arguments

`x` | A character vector of uniform resource identifiers (URIs.
`encoding` | A character string describing the current encoding. It is passed to `iconv` to convert the input to UTF-8.
`mode` | a character string specifying if and how URIs should be read in. Available modes are: `""` No read. In this case `getElem` and `pGetElem` only deliver URIs. `"binary"` URIs are read in binary raw mode (via `readBin`). `"text"` URIs are read as text (via `readLines`).

### Details

A uniform resource identifier source interprets each URI as a document.

### Value

An object inheriting from `URISource`, `SimpleSource`, and `Source`.

### See Also

`Source` for basic information on the source infrastructure employed by package tm.

`Encoding` and `iconv` on encodings.

### Examples

    loremipsum <- system.file("texts", "loremipsum.txt", package = "tm")
    ovid <- system.file("texts", "txt", "ovid_1.txt", package = "tm")
    us <- URISource(sprintf("file://%s", c(loremipsum, ovid)))
    inspect(VCorpus(us))
