Source: R/get_childCodeIds.R, R/get_descendentCodeIds.R
get_childCodeIds.Rd

Get the code identifiers of all children, or all descendents (i.e. including grand-children, grand-grand-children, etc) of a code with a given identifier.

Usage

get_childCodeIds(
  x,
  parentCodeId,
  childrenOnly = TRUE,
  returnNodes = FALSE,
  returnPaths = FALSE,
  includeParentCode = FALSE
)

get_descendentCodeIds(x, parentCodeId, includeParentCode = FALSE)

Arguments

x

The parsed sources object

parentCodeId

The code identifier of the parent code

childrenOnly

Whether to only return 'immediate' / 'direct' children, or the full descendancy (including grand-children, grand-grand children, etc etc).

returnNodes

For get_childCodeIds(), set this to TRUE to return a list of nodes, not just the code identifiers.

returnPaths

Whether to return the paths (from the root) or the names.

includeParentCode

Whether to include the parent code identifier in the result

Value

A character vector with code identifiers (or a list of nodes)
