[R] rle with data.table - is it possible?

Is it possible to add the following code or similar in data.table:

childseg<-0
x:=sumchild <-0
span<-rle(x)$lengths[rle(x)$values==TRUE
childseg[x]<-rep(seq_along(span), times = spanLOH)
childseg[childseg == 0]<-''

I was hoping to do this code by SNPEFF_GENE_NAME for mum, dad and
child.  The problem I'm having is with the
span<-rle(x)$lengths[rle(x)$values==TRUE line which I'm not sure can
be added to data.table.
