in json_flatten()
it makes sense to drop NA
, json nulls, empty arrays and nulls in arrays as one cannot know where they came from -> they are useless.
- should
NA
, json nulls, empty arrays and nulls in arrays all be treated the same? - sometimes it might make sense to keep them
tidyr::unnest_longer()
keeps them
tidyr::unnest_longer(
tibble::tibble(
id = 1:2,
l = list(NULL, c(3, 5, 9))
),
l
)
#> # A tibble: 4 x 2
#> id l
#> <int> <dbl>
#> 1 1 NA
#> 2 2 3
#> 3 2 5
#> 4 2 9
- add argument how to handle?
