I am using the BoxPacking package in R from here
Although I have manipulated it in many ways, the base is that I cannot export the solution to txt or preferably csv. I've tried converting to data frame or writing lines for txt as suggested here, but keep getting errors:
Error in as.data.frame.default(x[[i]], optional = TRUE) :
cannot coerce class "structure("Container", package = "BoxPacking")" to a data.frame
Is anyone familiar enough with this package to assist please?
Thanks
CSV seems like a bad choice for this since it's a nested structure. JSON wld be far more appropriate.
First, define some json serializers for the custom objects:
library(jsonlite)
setMethod(jsonlite:::asJSON, "Box", function(x, ...) {
jsonlite:::asJSON(
list(
Box =
list(
origin = x@origin,
length = unbox(x@length),
height = unbox(x@height),
width = unbox(x@width)
)
),
...
)
})
setMethod(jsonlite:::asJSON, "EMS", function(x, ...) {
jsonlite:::asJSON(
list(
EMS = list(
origin = x@origin,
length = unbox(x@length),
height = unbox(x@height),
width = unbox(x@width)
)
),
...
)
})
setMethod(jsonlite:::asJSON, "Container", function(x, ...) {
jsonlite:::asJSON(
list(
Container =
list(
origin = x@origin,
length = unbox(x@length),
height = unbox(x@height),
width = unbox(x@width),
ems = x@ems
)
),
...
)
})
then, just call jsonlite::toJSON() on the object:
