Sort matches within each file

Source: R/seekr-match.R
sort_within_files.Rd

sort_within_files() sorts matches by position within each file, while preserving the order in which files appear in x.

This differs from sort(), which sorts globally and reorders files alphabetically. Use sort_within_files() when you want positions within each file to be consistent — for example, after combining two seekr_match vectors with vctrs::vec_c() — without changing the order in which files are displayed or processed.

Usage

sort_within_files(x)

Arguments

x

A seekr_match vector.

Value

A seekr_match vector with the same matches in potentially different order: files appear in their original order, and matches within each file are sorted by start, then end, then match, then replacement.

Examples

ext_path <- system.file("extdata", package = "seekr")
x <- seekr("TODO", path = ext_path)
y <- seekr("FIXME", path = ext_path)

# Combine and reorder within files without changing file order
z <- vctrs::vec_c(x, y)
sort_within_files(z)
