datapackage: Creating and Reading Data Packages

Open, read data from and modify Data Packages. Data Packages are an open standard for bundling and describing data sets (<https://datapackage.org>). When data is read from a Data Package care is taken to convert the data as much a possible to R appropriate data types. The package can be extended with plugins for additional data types.
