I have the next issue trying to convert this list of list into a data frame where is unique element of the list is a column of its own.
This is what I have right now:
> head(data$egg_groups)
[[1]]
name resource_uri
1 Plant /api/v1/egg/7/
2 Monster /api/v1/egg/1/
[[2]]
name resource_uri
1 Plant /api/v1/egg/7/
2 Monster /api/v1/egg/1/
[[3]]
name resource_uri
1 Plant /api/v1/egg/7/
2 Monster /api/v1/egg/1/
[[4]]
name resource_uri
1 Dragon /api/v1/egg/14/
2 Monster /api/v1/egg/1/
[[5]]
name resource_uri
1 Dragon /api/v1/egg/14/
2 Monster /api/v1/egg/1/
[[6]]
name resource_uri
1 Dragon /api/v1/egg/14/
2 Monster /api/v1/egg/1/
What I would like to have is a data frame where is one of those entries (just name) is a column of its own.
Something like this:
Plant Monster Dragon
1 1 1
2 1 1
3 1 1
4 1 1
5 1 1
6 1 1
I have tried the library plyr and the using unlist
and so far nothing has worked. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

You can use rbindlist()
from data.table v1.9.5
as follows:
(Using @lukeA's example)
require(data.table) # 1.9.5+
dt = rbindlist(l, idcol="id")
# id x y
# 1: 1 a 1
# 2: 1 b 2
# 3: 2 b 2
# 4: 2 c 3
dcast(dt, id ~ x, fun.aggregate = length)
# id a b c
# 1: 1 1 1 0
# 2: 2 0 1 1
You can install it by following the instructions here .
I would suggest using mtabulate
from the "qdapTools" package. First, just loop through the list and extract the relevant column as a vector, and use the resulting list as the input for mtabulate
, something like this:
library(qdapTools)
head(mtabulate(lapply(L, `[[`, "name")))
# Bug Ditto Dragon Fairy Flying Ground Human-like Indeterminate Mineral Monster
# 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
# 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
# 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
# 4 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
# 5 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
# 6 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
# Plant Undiscovered Water1 Water2 Water3
# 1 1 0 0 0 0
# 2 1 0 0 0 0
# 3 1 0 0 0 0
# 4 0 0 0 0 0
# 5 0 0 0 0 0
# 6 0 0 0 0 0
Here's one way to do it:
(l <- list(data.frame(x = letters[1:2], y = 1:2), data.frame(x = letters[2:3], y = 2:3)))
# [[1]]
# x y
# 1 a 1
# 2 b 2
#
# [[2]]
# x y
# 1 b 2
# 2 c 3
df <- do.call(rbind, lapply(1:length(l), function(x) cbind(l[[x]], id = x) ))
# x y id
# 1 a 1 1
# 2 b 2 1
# 3 b 2 2
# 4 c 3 2
library(reshape2)
dcast(df, id~x, fun.aggregate = function(x) if (length(x)) "1" else "" )[-1]
# a b c
# 1 1 1
# 2 1 1
