Description
I'm using read_memento() to scrape some saved .csv files for improved reproducibility. The function is great. Some of the columns need an explicit column type not picked up by automatic parsing in as = "parsed".
It'd be great if we could define the col_types = cols()) like you can in readr::read_csv().
Here's how I'm currently doing it. Reading as raw and parsing separately.
"https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls-page/senate_polls.csv" %>%
read_memento(timestamp = "2019-01-29", as = "raw") %>%
read_csv(col_types = cols(
question_id = col_character(),
poll_id = col_character(),
pollster_id = col_character(),
sponsor_ids = col_character(),
start_date = col_date("%m/%d/%y"),
end_date = col_date("%m/%d/%y"),
created_at = col_datetime("%m/%d/%y %H:%M")))
