README
# dir2json, an R package
Originally, this package only dealt with the hierarchical data given by
the structure of a folder, but now it can deal with any dataset with a
hierarchical structure.
It provides a Shiny application (see below).
Also provides a function to get the tree view of a directory.
This package uses the DLL created by the Haskell libraries [jsondirtree](https://github.com/stla/jsondirtree) and [jsondirtreeR](https://github.com/stla/jsondirtreeR). They are standalone on
Windows.
```r
library(dir2json)
dat <- tibble::tribble(
~level1, ~level2, ~level3, ~level4,
"Beverages", "Water", "", "",
"Beverages", "Coffee", "", "",
"Beverages", "Tea", "Black tea", "",
"Beverages", "Tea", "White tea", "",
"Beverages", "Tea", "Green tea", "Sencha",
"Beverages", "Tea", "Green tea", "Gyokuro",
"Beverages", "Tea", "Green tea", "Matcha",
"Beverages", "Tea", "Green tea", "Pi Lo Chun"
)
shinyDataTree(dat, root = FALSE)
```
This kind of tree is called a *Reingold-Tilford tree network diagram*. It
is produced with the help of **D3.js**.
