One-step solution

We can also combine all the steps for preparing ILSA data (downloading, merging, combining respondents, and renaming) with the function ILSAready():

dir.create(file.path(tempdir(),"rlii1991"),showWarnings = FALSE)
output <- file.path(tempdir(),"rlii1991")
ILSAready(study = "RLII", year = 1991,outputdir = output, agreeLicense = TRUE)

## 1 files found for RLII 1991.
## Visit https://www.iea.nl/data-tools/repository/readingliteracy to know how to use and cite these datasets.9 files detected. Merging into 1 files.
## Merging ASCT1. Type 1 of 1.
## Merging dataset 1 of 9.
## Merging dataset 2 of 9.
## Merging dataset 3 of 9.
## Merging dataset 4 of 9.
## Merging dataset 5 of 9.
## Merging dataset 6 of 9.
## Merging dataset 7 of 9.
## Merging dataset 8 of 9.
## Merging dataset 9 of 9.
## Merging ASCT1 took 2 seconds or 0.04 minutes.
## Merging took 2 seconds or 0.04 minutes.
## 1  ILSAmerge() file(s) found.
## 1  ILSAmerge() file(s) renamed.
## Downloading and preparing data took 3 seconds or 0.06 minutes.

Also if data is already downloaded we can use ILSAreadylocal():

dir.create(file.path(tempdir(),"timssadv"),showWarnings = FALSE)
output <- file.path(tempdir(),"timssadv")

input <- system.file("extdata/timssadv", package = "ILSAmerge")

ILSAreadylocal(inputdir = input, outputdir = output)
