This is a method for the dplyr relocate() generic. It is translated to the j argument of [.data.table.

Usage

# S3 method for dtplyr_step
relocate(.data, ..., .before = NULL, .after = NULL)

Arguments

.data

A lazy_dt().

...

<tidy-select> Columns to move.

.before, .after

<tidy-select> Destination of columns selected by .... Supplying neither will move columns to the left-hand side; specifying both is an error.

Examples

library(dplyr, warn.conflicts = FALSE)

dt <- lazy_dt(data.frame(x = 1, y = 2, z = 3))

dt %>% relocate(z)
#> Source: local data table [1 x 3]
#> Call:   setcolorder(copy(`_DT33`), c("z", "x", "y"))
#> 
#>       z     x     y
#>   <dbl> <dbl> <dbl>
#> 1     3     1     2
#> 
#> # Use as.data.table()/as.data.frame()/as_tibble() to access results
dt %>% relocate(y, .before = x)
#> Source: local data table [1 x 3]
