Delete TileDB Metadata

Delete metadata using keys names for a TileDB array or group.

Usage

# S3 method for class 'TileDBArray'
delete_metadata(x, keys, ...)

# S3 method for class 'TileDBGroup'
delete_metadata(x, keys, ...)

# S3 method for class 'tiledb_array'
delete_metadata(x, keys, ...)

# S3 method for class 'tiledb_group'
delete_metadata(x, keys, ...)

# S3 method for class 'character'
delete_metadata(x, keys, ctx = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x

An R object that points to a TileDB resource whose metadata are to be accessed.

keys

A character vector of metadata key names to be accessed.

...

Other arguments passed to methods. Not used.

ctx

Optional tiledb::tiledb_ctx() object.

Value

A logical TRUE, invisibly.

Details

delete_metadata() works similar to metadata<-() with NULL value but works with a character vector of keys.

The character method requires a valid URI path.

The methods will not alter the mode of the TileDB object; also, the object will be opened temporarily to access the metadata if it is closed.
