Get the values of configurations currently set in the movenet environment

get_config() allows the user to examine the values of one or more configurations as currently set in the movenet environment.

Usage

get_config(...)

Arguments

...

One or more configuration names, in the form of individual character strings, a character vector, or a list.

Value

• If no arguments are provided, an unstructured named list of all configurations as currently set in the movenet environment.

• If one or more configuration names are provided, an unstructured named list with the current value of these configurations, or an empty named list and a warning if the configurations are unset or ambiguous.

Details

Configuration names

Each configuration name must follow the "datatype_configtype.configname" format, consisting of the following elements:

• datatype: Type of data the configuration applies to. Either movedata or holdingdata.

• configtype: Type of configuration. Either fileopts (file options) or cols (column headers/indices).

• configname: Name of the specific configuration.

For example: "movedata_fileopts.separator", "holdingdata_cols.id"

get_config() uses partial matching for configuration names. If a configuration name is ambiguous or unrecognised (e.g. if the configuration is unset), a warning is displayed.
