stackDataFilesParallel

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.

NEON data packages can be accessed through the NEON Data Portal <https://www.neonscience.org>
or through the NEON Data API (see <https://data.neonscience.org/data-api> for documentation). Data delivered from
the Data Portal are provided as monthly zip files packaged within a parent zip file, while individual files
can be accessed from the API. This package provides tools that aid in discovering, downloading, and reformatting
data prior to use in analyses. This includes downloading data via the API, merging data tables by type, and
converting formats. For more information, see the readme file at <https://github.com/NEONScience/NEON-utilities>.

stackDataFilesParallel function

<dl><dt>folder</dt>
<dd>The location of the data</dd>
<dt>nCores</dt>
<dd>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.</dd>
<dt>dpID</dt>
<dd>The data product identifier</dd></dl>
