Read and validate the sample map — load_sample

Schema (see README): file, well, sample_id, patient_id, timepoint, is_control, panel, fmo_for, control_group. Only file is required.

Usage

load_sample_map(path, fcs_files)

Arguments

path: File path.
fcs_files: The fcs files.

Details

fmo_for names the markers a file is the fluorescence-minus-one control for, comma separated; control_group confines a control to the samples sharing its value. Both are optional and inert when absent. See parse_fmo_map(). A supplied map that does not cover every input file is a FATAL error: guessing well->patient assignment from plate order would silently mislabel patients.
