Documentation for Eidos function readFile, which is a method of Eidos. Note that the R function is a stub, it does not do anything in R (except bring up this documentation). It will only do anything useful when used inside a slim_block function further nested in a slim_script function call, where it will be translated into valid SLiM code as part of a full SLiM script.

eidos_readFile(filePath)

Arguments

filePath

An object of type string. Must be of length 1 (a singleton). See details for description.

Value

An object of type string.

Details

Documentation for this function can be found in the official SLiM manual: page NA.

Reads in the contents of a file specified by filePath and returns a string vector containing the lines (separated by \n and \r characters) of the file. Reading files other than text files is not presently supported. If an error occurs during the read, NULL will be returned.
