makeInsertion

Convert a child class of Insertion into a proper Insertion

Description

The Crunch API expects that Subtotals, Headings, and other insertions all have the same shape. Before sending insertions to the server, we need to call makeInsertion on any insertions to make sure they are proper Insertions. This process sometimes requires a variable's categories object (e.g. in order to convert from category names to category ids)

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'Subtotal'
makeInsertion(x, var_categories)

## S4 method for signature 'Heading'
makeInsertion(x, var_categories)

## S4 method for signature 'Insertion'
makeInsertion(x, var_categories)

## S4 method for signature 'SummaryStat'
makeInsertion(x, var_categories)

Arguments

`x`	an object the is a child of Insertion (e.g. `Subtotal`, `Heading`)
`var_categories`	categories (from `categories(variable)`) to used by `makeInsertions` to make `Insertions` from a child object (e.g. `Subtotal` or `Heading`)

Value

an Insertion object
