A fast JSON parser, generator and validator which converts JSON, NDJSON (Newline Delimited JSON) and GeoJSON (Geographic JSON) data to/from R objects. The standard R data types are supported (e.g. logical, numeric, integer) with configurable handling of NULL and NA values. Data frames, atomic vectors and lists are all supported as data containers translated to/from JSON. GeoJSON data is read in as simple features objects. This implementation wraps the yyjson C library which is available from .

Rectangling is the art and craft of taking a deeply nested list (often sourced from wild caught JSON or XML) and taming it into a tidy data set of rows and columns. This vignette introduces you to the main rectangling tools provided by tidyr: `unnest_longer()`, `unnest_wider()`, and `hoist()`.

Working with complex, hierarchically nested JSON data in R can be a bit of a pain. In this post, I illustrate how you can convert JSON data into tidy tibbles with particular emphasis on what I’ve found to be a reasonably good, general approach for converting nested JSON into nested tibbles. I use three illustrative examples of increasing complexity to help highlight some pitfalls and build up the logic underlying the approach before applying it in the context of some real-world rock climbing competition data.

My lab investigates how blood pressure can be treated more effectively. Much of that work involves the painstaking development of new concepts and research methods to move forward the state of the art. For example, our work on urinary extracellular vesicles’ mRNA as an ex vivo assay of the ligand-activated transcription factor activity of mineralocorticoid receptors is challenging, fun, and rewarding. With a lot of work from Andrea Berrido and Pradeep Gunasekaran in my lab, we have been moving the ball forward on several key projects on that front.

Designing a comprehensive data model for the backend of a client portal or Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system involves creating a structured database that can efficiently manage and process data related to user management, contact management, task management, sales pipeline, reporting, and interactions such as emails, calls, and transactions. This model will serve as the foundation...
