Arguments

working_dat

Primary data containing information on hauls or trips. Table in FishSET database contains the string `MainDataTable`.

vars

project

Details

Add variables back into the dataset that were removed. The removed variables are obtained from the raw_dat and merged into the working data based on a row identifier. The row identifier is created when a variable is removed using the select_vars function. The row identifier is used to match the raw data variables to working_dat.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
add_vars(pcodMainDataTable, "pcodMainDataTable20200410", "pollock")
}
