gapless_Datetimes: Create a gapless sequence of Datetimes

Description

Create a gapless sequence of Datetimes. The Datetimes are determined by the minimum and maximum Datetime in the dataset and an epoch. The epoch can either be guessed from the dataset or specified by the user.

Usage

gapless_Datetimes(
  dataset,
  Datetime.colname = Datetime,
  epoch = "dominant.epoch",
  full.days = FALSE
)

Value

A tibble with a gapless sequence of Datetime as specified by epoch.

Arguments

dataset

A light logger dataset. Needs to be a dataframe.

Datetime.colname

The column that contains the datetime. Needs to be a POSIXct and part of the dataset.

epoch

The epoch to use for the gapless sequence. Can be either a lubridate::duration() or a string. If it is a string, it needs to be either '"dominant.epoch"' (the default) for a guess based on the data or a valid lubridate::duration() string, e.g., "1 day" or "10 sec".

full.days

If TRUE, the gapless sequence will include the whole first and last day where there is data.

Examples

  dataset <- 
  tibble::tibble(Id = c("A", "A", "A", "B", "B", "B"),
                 Datetime = lubridate::as_datetime(1) +
                 lubridate::days(c(0:2, 4, 6, 8))) %>% 
                 dplyr::group_by(Id)
  
  dataset %>% gapless_Datetimes()
  dataset %>% dplyr::ungroup() %>%  gapless_Datetimes()
  dataset %>% gapless_Datetimes(epoch = "1 day")
