Description
'DataSHIELD' 'Tidyverse' Serverside Package.
Description
Implementation of selected 'Tidyverse' functions within 'DataSHIELD', an open-source federated analysis solution in R. Currently, DataSHIELD contains very limited tools for data manipulation, so the aim of this package is to improve the researcher experience by implementing essential functions for data manipulation, including subsetting, filtering, grouping, and renaming variables. For more information, see <https://www.tidyverse.org/> and <https://datashield.org/>.

dsTidyverse
This is the DataSHIELD implementation of selected Tidyverse functions. Currently most of these functions are from dplyr, however in the future functions from other Tidyverse packages can be included.
Installation
- Install dsTidyverse on your armadillo or opal server.
- Whitelist dsTidyverse if required
- Install dsTidyverseClient on your local machine
