Run qlikview from R and load qvd data
We use qlikview at work, so I created this package so that my workflows are reproducible (and potentially automated) all within R.
Works by sending CMD command lines to qlikview. It then passes variables defined in R to qlikview.
With this we could do many things. In this case, there are two functions:
reload_qvw: It opens the choosen qvw document, reloads the data and closes qlikview. Useful when your analysis is coming from data exported from qlikview.
read_qvd: It opens a qvw document inside the package, which has two variables (qvd path and path for the exported csv) which then is read into r as data frame through read_csv()
Note that qlikview license is needed to open qvw created by another user.
