Write a metamodel file (.mmdl) — write

Writes an NlmePmlModel object to a text based metamodel file (.mmdl).

Usage

write_mmdl(
  model,
  file,
  datafile,
  author = "",
  engineParams = NULL,
  tableParams = NULL,
  absolutePaths = FALSE
)

model: An NlmePmlModel object.
file: Output metamodel file path to create/overwrite.
datafile: Input data file path to write into the ## DATA block.
author: Optional author string to write into the metamodel.
engineParams: Optional NlmeEngineExtraParams object created by engineParams() to serialize into the ## ESTARGS block. Only arguments that differ from engineParams() defaults for this model (and estimation method) are written, so the block lists explicit overrides only.
tableParams: Optional table definition(s) created by tableParams() (i.e., NlmeTableDef and/or NlmeSimTableDef, or a list of them) to serialize into the ## TABLES block.
absolutePaths: Logical; how to write the datafile path into the ## DATA block. FALSE (default) makes it relative to the metamodel directory (e.g. ./data.csv), producing portable metamodels. TRUE writes the normalized absolute path. When a relative path cannot be expressed (different Windows drive) the function warns and falls back to absolute.
