Coerce to and from the S4 KRT class

These are inverse coercions named after their target class. as_krt() returns the S3 krt_tbl (the package's primary object): pass it a krt_tbl and it is returned unchanged, or an S4 KRT and it is converted down. It is the helper to call when a function should accept either representation. as_KRT() is the opposite direction, a thin idempotent wrapper over methods::as(x, "KRT") for Bioconductor workflows.

Usage

as_krt(x)

as_KRT(x)

Arguments

x

A krt_tbl or KRT object.

Value

as_krt() returns a krt_tbl; as_KRT() returns an S4 KRT.

Examples

k4 <- as_KRT(krt_example)
identical(length(as_krt(k4)$resources), length(krt_example$resources))
#> [1] TRUE
