openxlsx2 (version 1.9)

as_xml: loads character string to pugixml and returns an externalptr

Description

loads character string to pugixml and returns an externalptr

Usage

as_xml(x, ...)

Arguments

x

input as xml

...

additional arguments passed to read_xml()

Details

might be useful for larger documents where single nodes are shortened and otherwise the full tree has to be reimported. unsure where we have such a case. is useful, for printing nodes from a larger tree, that have been exported as characters (at some point in time we have to convert the xml to R)

Examples

tmp_xlsx <- tempfile()
xlsxFile <- system.file("extdata", "openxlsx2_example.xlsx", package = "openxlsx2")
unzip(xlsxFile, exdir = tmp_xlsx)

wb <- wb_load(xlsxFile)
styles_xml <- sprintf("%s/xl/styles.xml", tmp_xlsx)

# is external pointer
sxml <- read_xml(styles_xml)

# is character
font <- xml_node(sxml, "styleSheet", "fonts", "font")

# is again external pointer
as_xml(font)
