Convert post data frame to corpus objects

Source: R/corp-df2corp.R

These functions convert data frame to corpus objects same as those constructed with corpus, VCorpus, and PCorpus. The list-column comment of the original post data frame is dropped for not complicating the data structure of the corpus.

post2qcorp(df, ...)

post2tmcorp(df, PCorpus = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

df

...

Additional arguments passed on to corpus, VCorpus, or PCorpus.
PCorpus
