NAME

Statistics::R::IO::RDS - Supply object methods for RDS files

VERSION

version 0.06

SYNOPSIS

    use Statistics::R::IO::RDS;
    
    my $rds = Statistics::R::IO::RDS->new('file.rds');
    my $var = $rds->read;
    print $var->to_pl;
    $rds->close;

DESCRIPTION

Statistics::R::IO::RDS provides an object-oriented interface to parsing RDS files. RDS files store a serialization of a single R object (and, if the object contains references to other objects, such as environments, all the referenced objects as well). These files are created in R using the readRDS function and are typically named with the .rds file extension.

METHODS

Statistics::R::IO::RDS inherits from Statistics::R::IO::Base and provides an implementation for the "read" method that parses RDS files.

read

Reads the contents of the filehandle and returns a Statistics::R::REXP.
