The sas7bdat package can read a sas data set and metadata.
library(sas7bdat)
library(dplyr) # needed for the bind_rows function
# use read.sas7bdat to read the dataset into a data frame
sas_df <- read.sas7bdat('Clinical/top.sas7bdat')
print(sas_df)
# This data frame has an attribute column.info which is a list containing a list of
# metadata items for each variable. You can extraxt it into a data frame using:
contents <- do.call(bind_rows, lapply(attr(sas_df,'column.info'),as.data.frame))
print(contents)
