Wrap RData.jl for reading rds files

[rdboyes]

Should this package read rds files? I can add this if we decide this is the right place for it

Two thumbs up seems like consensus. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

I love this idea - I second that. read_rds and write_rds.

I'm not sure what to do with .rdata files (which contains the object names inside the file). Take a look and see if it's worth chasing after.

I went ahead an threw in a read_rdata on the most recent version since it was just wrapping 1 line of code. it doesnt seem rdata.jl has write ability tho

A lot of R packages store .rda file types within the package under /data. these are .rda types.

read_rdata() still works but requires using CodecBzip2. I am able to do this just fine but wanted to jot the note here.

.rda support would require this dependency and the extension added to the agnostic function.

I am working through a Tidier example vignette using the referenced R package & it's R data, for R users. Been playing around with TidierFiles' read_rdata for the first time!

Would you mind sharing a link to the file(if it's public)? I can play around with it and we should be able to add support for it or at the very least add documentation around it

For sure! here's the data I am using to test & write the Julia/Tidier EDA examples: https://github.com/frankiethull/NPSpecies/raw/main/data/species.rda
