Package 'rtables'

Title: Reporting Tables
Description: Reporting tables often have structure that goes beyond simple rectangular data. The 'rtables' package provides a framework for declaring complex multi-level tabulations and then applying them to data. This framework models both tabulation and the resulting tables as hierarchical, tree-like objects which support sibling sub-tables, arbitrary splitting or grouping of data in row and column dimensions, cells containing multiple values, and the concept of contextual summary computations. A convenient pipe-able interface is provided for declaring table layouts and the corresponding computations, and then applying them to data.

Add the column population counts to the header

Description

Add the data derived column counts.

Usage

add_colcounts(lyt, format = "(N=xx)")

Arguments

lyt

(PreDataTableLayouts)
layout object pre-data used for tabulation.

format

(string, function, or list)
format associated with this split. Formats can be declared via strings ("xx.x") or function. In cases such as analyze calls, they can be character vectors or lists of functions. See formatters::list_valid_format_labels() for a list of all available format strings.

Details

It is often the case that the the column counts derived from the input data to build_table() is not representative of the population counts. For example, if events are counted in the table and the header should display the number of subjects and not the total number of events.

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

Add a combination facet in post-processing

Description

Add a combination facet during the post-processing stage in a custom split fun.

Usage

add_combo_facet(name, label = name, levels, extra = list())

add_overall_facet(name, label, extra = list())

Arguments

name

(string)
name for the resulting facet (for use in pathing, etc.).

label

(string)
label for the resulting facet.

levels

(character)
vector of levels to combine within the resulting facet.

extra

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to analysis functions applied within the resulting facet.

Details

For add_combo_facet, the data associated with the resulting facet will be the data associated with the facets for each level in levels, row-bound together. In particular, this means that if those levels are overlapping, data that appears in both will be duplicated.

Value

A function which can be used within the post argument in make_split_fun().

Add overall or combination levels to split groups

Description

add_overall_level is a split function that adds a global level to the current levels in the split. Similarly, add_combo_df uses a user-provided data.frame to define the combine the levels to be added. If you need a single overall column, after all splits, please check add_overall_col(). Consider also defining your custom split function if you need more flexibility (see custom_split_funs).

Usage

add_overall_level(
  valname = "Overall",
  label = valname,
  extra_args = list(),
  first = TRUE,
  trim = FALSE
)

select_all_levels

add_combo_levels(combosdf, trim = FALSE, first = FALSE, keep_levels = NULL)

Arguments

valname

(string)
value to be assigned to the implicit all-observations split level. Defaults to "Overall".

label

(string)
a label (not to be confused with the name) for the object/structure.

extra_args

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to the tabulation function. Element position in the list corresponds to the children of this split. Named elements in the child-specific lists are ignored if they do not match a formal argument of the tabulation function.

first

(flag)
whether the implicit level should appear first (TRUE) or last (FALSE). Defaults to TRUE.

trim

(flag)
whether splits corresponding with 0 observations should be kept when tabulating.

combosdf

(data.frame or tbl_df)
a data frame with columns valname, label, levelcombo, and exargs. levelcombo and exargs should be list columns. Passing the select_all_levels object as a value in comblevels column indicates that an overall/all-observations level should be created.

keep_levels

(character or NULL)
if non-NULL, the levels to retain across both combination and individual levels.

Format

An object of class AllLevelsSentinel of length 0.

Value

A splitting function (splfun) that adds or changes the levels of a split.

Note

Analysis or summary functions for which the order matters should never be used within the tabulation framework.

Additional parameters within analysis and content functions (afun/cfun)

Description

It is possible to add specific parameters to afun and cfun, in analyze() and summarize_row_groups(), respectively. These parameters grant access to relevant information like the row split structure (see spl_context) and the predefined baseline (.ref_group).

Details

We list and describe all the parameters that can be added to a custom analysis function below:

.N_col

Column-wise N (column count) for the full column being tabulated within.

.N_total

Overall N (all observation count, defined as sum of column counts) for the tabulation.

.N_row

Row-wise N (row group count) for the group of observations being analyzed (i.e. with no column-based subsetting).

.df_row

data.frame for observations in the row group being analyzed (i.e. with no column-based subsetting).

.var

Variable being analyzed.

.ref_group

data.frame or vector of subset corresponding to the ref_group column including subsetting defined by row-splitting. Only required/meaningful if a ref_group column has been defined.

.ref_full

data.frame or vector of subset corresponding to the ref_group column without subsetting defined by row-splitting. Only required/meaningful if a ref_group column has been defined.

.in_ref_col

Boolean indicating if calculation is done for cells within the reference column.

.spl_context

data.frame where each row gives information about a previous 'ancestor' split state. See spl_context.

.alt_df_row

data.frame, i.e. the alt_count_df after row splitting. It can be used with .all_col_exprs and .spl_context information to retrieve current faceting, but for alt_count_df. It can be an empty table if all the entries are filtered out.

.alt_df

data.frame, .alt_df_row but filtered by columns expression. This data present the same faceting of main data df. This also filters NAs out if related parameters are set to do so (e.g. inclNAs in analyze()). Similarly to .alt_df_row, it can be an empty table if all the entries are filtered out.

.all_col_exprs

List of expressions. Each of them represents a different column splitting.

.all_col_counts

Vector of integers. Each of them represents the global count for each column. It differs if alt_counts_df is used (see build_table()).

Note

If any of these formals is specified incorrectly or not present in the tabulation machinery, it will be treated as if missing. For example, .ref_group will be missing if no baseline is previously defined during data splitting (via ref_group parameters in, e.g., split_rows_by()). Similarly, if no alt_counts_df is provided to build_table(), .alt_df_row and .alt_df will not be present.


Trimming and pruning criteria

Description

Criteria functions (and constructors thereof) for trimming and pruning tables.

Usage

all_zero_or_na(tr)

all_zero(tr)

content_all_zeros_nas(tt, criteria = all_zero_or_na)

prune_empty_level(tt)

prune_zeros_only(tt)

low_obs_pruner(min, type = c("sum", "mean"))

Arguments

tr

(TableRow or related class)
a TableRow object representing a single row within a populated table.

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

criteria

(function)
function which takes a TableRow object and returns TRUE if that row should be removed. Defaults to all_zero_or_na().

min

(numeric(1))
(used by low_obs_pruner only). Minimum aggregate count value. Subtables whose combined/average count are below this threshold will be pruned.

type

(string)
how count values should be aggregated. Must be "sum" (the default) or "mean".

Details

all_zero_or_na returns TRUE (and thus indicates trimming/pruning) for any non-LabelRow TableRow which contain only any mix of NA (including NaN), 0, Inf and -Inf values.

all_zero returns TRUE for any non-LabelRow which contains only (non-missing) zero values.

content_all_zeros_nas prunes a subtable if both of the following are true:

  • It has a content table with exactly one row in it.

  • all_zero_or_na returns TRUE for that single content row. In practice, when the default summary/content function is used, this represents pruning any subtable which corresponds to an empty set of the input data (e.g. because a factor variable was used in split_rows_by() but not all levels were present in the data).

prune_empty_level combines all_zero_or_na behavior for TableRow objects, content_all_zeros_nas on content_table(tt) for TableTree objects, and an additional check that returns TRUE if the tt has no children.

prune_zeros_only behaves as prune_empty_level does, except that like all_zero it prunes only in the case of all non-missing zero values.

low_obs_pruner is a constructor function which, when called, returns a pruning criteria function which will prune on content rows by comparing sum or mean (dictated by type) of the count portions of the cell values (defined as the first value per cell regardless of how many values per cell there are) against min.

Value

A logical value indicating whether tr should be included (TRUE) or pruned (FALSE) during pruning.

Generate rows analyzing variables across columns

Description

Adding analyzed variables to our table layout defines the primary tabulation to be performed. We do this by adding calls to analyze and/or analyze_colvars() into our layout pipeline. As with adding further splitting, the tabulation will occur at the current/next level of nesting by default.

Usage

analyze(
  lyt,
  vars,
  afun = simple_analysis,
  var_labels = vars,
  table_names = vars,
  format = NULL,
  na_str = NA_character_,
  nested = TRUE,
  inclNAs = FALSE,
  extra_args = list(),
  show_labels = c("default", "visible", "hidden"),
  indent_mod = 0L,
  section_div = NA_character_
)

Arguments

lyt

(PreDataTableLayouts)
layout object pre-data used for tabulation.

vars

(character)
vector of variable names.

afun

(function)
analysis function. Must accept x or df as its first parameter. Can optionally take other parameters which will be populated by the tabulation framework. See Details in analyze().

var_labels

(character)
vector of labels for one or more variables.

table_names

(character)
names for the tables representing each atomic analysis. Defaults to var.

format

(string, function, or list)
format associated with this split. Formats can be declared via strings ("xx.x") or function. In cases such as analyze calls, they can be character vectors or lists of functions. See formatters::list_valid_format_labels() for a list of all available format strings.

na_str

(string)
string that should be displayed when the value of x is missing. Defaults to "NA".

nested

(logical)
whether this layout instruction should be applied within the existing layout structure if possible (TRUE, the default) or as a new top-level element (FALSE). Ignored if it would nest a split underneath analyses, which is not allowed.

inclNAs

(logical)
whether NA observations in the var variable(s) should be included when performing the analysis. Defaults to FALSE.

extra_args

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to the tabulation function. Element position in the list corresponds to the children of this split. Named elements in the child-specific lists are ignored if they do not match a formal argument of the tabulation function.

show_labels

(string)
whether the variable labels corresponding to the variable(s) in vars should be visible in the resulting table.

indent_mod

(numeric)
modifier for the default indent position for the structure created by this function (subtable, content table, or row) and all of that structure's children. Defaults to 0, which corresponds to the unmodified default behavior.

section_div

(string)
string which should be repeated as a section divider after each group defined by this split instruction, or NA_character_ (the default) for no section divider.

Details

When non-NULL, format is used to specify formats for all generated rows, and can be a character vector, a function, or a list of functions. It will be repped out to the number of rows once this is calculated during the tabulation process, but will be overridden by formats specified within rcell calls in afun.

The analysis function (afun) should take as its first parameter either x or df. Whichever of these the function accepts will change the behavior when tabulation is performed as follows:

  • If afun's first parameter is x, it will receive the corresponding subset vector of data from the relevant column (from var here) of the raw data being used to build the table.

  • If afun's first parameter is df, it will receive the corresponding subset data frame (i.e. all columns) of the raw data being tabulated.

In addition to differentiation on the first argument, the analysis function can optionally accept a number of other parameters which, if and only if present in the formals, will be passed to the function by the tabulation machinery. These are listed and described in additional_fun_params.

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

Note

None of the arguments described in the Details section can be overridden via extra_args or when calling make_afun(). .N_col and .N_total can be overridden via the col_counts argument to build_table(). Alternative values for the others must be calculated within afun based on a combination of extra arguments and the unmodified values provided by the tabulation framework.

Top-left material strings are stored and then displayed exactly as is, no structure or indenting is applied to them either when they are added or when they are displayed.

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

Note

Currently, where in the construction of the layout this is called makes no difference, as it is independent of the actual splitting keywords. This may change in the future.

This function is experimental, its name and the details of its behavior are subject to change in future versions.

Convert an rtable object to a shiny.tag HTML object

Description

The returned HTML object can be immediately used in shiny and rmarkdown.

Usage

as_html(
  x,
  width = NULL,
  class_table = "table table-condensed table-hover",
  class_tr = NULL,
  class_th = NULL,
  link_label = NULL,
  bold = c("header"),
  header_sep_line = TRUE,
  no_spaces_between_cells = FALSE,
  expand_newlines = FALSE
)

Arguments

x

(VTableTree)
a TableTree object.

width

(character)
a string to indicate the desired width of the table. Common input formats include a percentage of the viewer window width (e.g. "100%") or a distance value (e.g. "300px"). Defaults to NULL.

class_table

(character)
class for table tag.

class_tr

(character)
class for tr tag.

class_th

(character)
class for th tag.

link_label

(character)
link anchor label (not including ⁠tab:⁠ prefix) for the table.

bold

(character)
elements in table output that should be bold. Options are "main_title", "subtitles", "header", "row_names", "label_rows", and "content_rows" (which includes any non-label rows). Defaults to "header".

header_sep_line

(flag)
whether a black line should be printed to under the table header. Defaults to TRUE.

no_spaces_between_cells

(flag)
whether spaces between table cells should be collapsed. Defaults to FALSE.

expand_newlines

(flag)
Defaults to FALSE, relying on html output to solve newline characters (⁠\n⁠). Doing this keeps the structure of the cells but may depend on the output device.

Value

A shiny.tag object representing x in HTML.

Examples

tbl <- rtable(
  header = LETTERS[1:3],
  format = "xx",
  rrow("r1", 1, 2, 3),
  rrow("r2", 4, 3, 2, indent = 1),
  rrow("r3", indent = 2)
)

as_html(tbl)

as_html(tbl, class_table = "table", class_tr = "row")

as_html(tbl, bold = c("header", "row_names"))

## Not run: 
Viewer(tbl)

## End(Not run)

Convert to a vector

Description

Convert an rtables framework object into a vector, if possible. This is unlikely to be useful in realistic scenarios.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'VTableTree'
as.vector(x, mode = "any")

Arguments

x

(ANY)
the object to be converted to a vector.

mode

(string)
passed on to as.vector().

Value

A vector of the chosen mode (or an error is raised if more than one row was present).

Note

This only works for a table with a single row or a row object.


Layout with 1 column and zero rows

Description

Every layout must start with a basic table.

Usage

basic_table(
  title = "",
  subtitles = character(),
  main_footer = character(),
  prov_footer = character(),
  show_colcounts = NA,
  colcount_format = "(N=xx)",
  header_section_div = NA_character_,
  top_level_section_div = NA_character_,
  inset = 0L
)

Arguments

title

(string)
single string to use as main title (formatters::main_title()). Ignored for subtables.

subtitles

(character)
a vector of strings to use as subtitles (formatters::subtitles()), where every element is printed on a separate line. Ignored for subtables.

main_footer

(character)
a vector of strings to use as main global (non-referential) footer materials (formatters::main_footer()), where every element is printed on a separate line.

prov_footer

(character)
a vector of strings to use as provenance-related global footer materials (formatters::prov_footer()), where every element is printed on a separate line.

show_colcounts

(logical(1))
Indicates whether the lowest level of applied to data. NA, the default, indicates that the show_colcounts argument(s) passed to the relevant calls to ⁠split_cols_by*⁠ functions. Non-missing values will override the behavior specified in column splitting layout instructions which create the lowest level, or leaf, columns.

colcount_format

(string)
format for use when displaying the column counts. Must be 1d, or 2d where one component is a percent. This will also apply to any displayed higher level column counts where an explicit format was not specified. Defaults to "(N=xx)". See Details below.

header_section_div

(string)
string which will be used to divide the header from the table. See header_section_div() for the associated getter and setter. Please consider changing last element of section_div() when concatenating tables that require a divider between them.

top_level_section_div

(character(1))
if assigned a single character, the first (top level) split or division of the table will be highlighted by a line made of that character. See section_div for more information.

inset

(numeric(1))
number of spaces to inset the table header, table body, referential footnotes, and main_footer, as compared to alignment of title, subtitle, and provenance footer. Defaults to 0 (no inset).

Details

colcount_format is ignored if show_colcounts is FALSE (the default). When show_colcounts is TRUE, and colcount_format is 2-dimensional with a percent component, the value component for the percent is always populated with 1 (i.e. 100%). 1d formats are used to render the counts exactly as they normally would be, while 2d formats which don't include a percent, and all 3d formats result in an error. Formats in the form of functions are not supported for colcount format. See formatters::list_valid_format_labels() for the list of valid format labels to select from.

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

Note

  • Because percent components in colcount_format are always populated with the value 1, we can get arguably strange results, such as that individual arm columns and a combined "all patients" column all list "100%" as their percentage, even though the individual arm columns represent strict subsets of the "all patients" column.

  • Note that subtitles (formatters::subtitles()) and footers (formatters::main_footer() and formatters::prov_footer()) that span more than one line can be supplied as a character vector to maintain indentation on multiple lines.

Examples

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  analyze("AGE", afun = mean)

tbl <- build_table(lyt, DM)
tbl

lyt2 <- basic_table(
  title = "Title of table",
  subtitles = c("a number", "of subtitles"),
  main_footer = "test footer",
  prov_footer = paste(
    "test.R program, executed at",
    Sys.time()
  )
) %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
  analyze("AGE", mean)

tbl2 <- build_table(lyt2, DM)
tbl2

lyt3 <- basic_table(
  show_colcounts = TRUE,
  colcount_format = "xx. (xx.%)"
) %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM")

Retrieve and assign elements of a TableTree

Description

Retrieve and assign elements of a TableTree

Usage

## S4 replacement method for signature 'VTableTree,ANY,ANY,list'
x[i, j, ...] <- value

## S4 method for signature 'VTableTree,logical,logical'
x[i, j, ..., drop = FALSE]

Arguments

x

(TableTree)
a TableTree object.

i

(numeric(1))
index.

j

(numeric(1))
index.

...

additional arguments. Includes:

keep_topleft

(flag) ([ only) whether the top-left material for the table should be retained after subsetting. Defaults to TRUE if all rows are included (i.e. subsetting was by column), and drops it otherwise.

keep_titles

(flag) whether title information should be retained. Defaults to FALSE.

keep_footers

(flag) whether non-referential footer information should be retained. Defaults to keep_titles.

reindex_refs

(flag) whether referential footnotes should be re-indexed as if the resulting subset is the entire table. Defaults to TRUE.

value

(list, TableRow, or TableTree)
replacement value.

drop

(flag)
whether the value in the cell should be returned if one cell is selected by the combination of i and j. It is not possible to return a vector of values. To do so please consider using cell_values(). Defaults to FALSE.

Details

By default, subsetting drops the information about title, subtitle, main footer, provenance footer, and topleft. If only a column is selected and all rows are kept, the topleft information remains as default. Any referential footnote is kept whenever the subset table contains the referenced element.

Value

A TableTree (or ElementaryTable) object, unless a single cell was selected with drop = TRUE, in which case the (possibly multi-valued) fully stripped raw value of the selected cell.

Note

Subsetting always preserve the original order, even if provided indexes do not preserve it. If sorting is needed, please consider using sort_at_path(). Also note that character indices are treated as paths, not vectors of names in both [ and ⁠[<-⁠.

Create a table from a layout and data

Description

Layouts are used to describe a table pre-data. build_table is used to create a table using a layout and a dataset.

Usage

build_table(
  lyt,
  df,
  alt_counts_df = NULL,
  col_counts = NULL,
  col_total = if (is.null(alt_counts_df)) nrow(df) else nrow(alt_counts_df),
  topleft = NULL,
  hsep = default_hsep(),
  ...
)

Arguments

lyt

(PreDataTableLayouts)
layout object pre-data used for tabulation.

df

(data.frame or tibble)
dataset.

alt_counts_df

(data.frame or tibble)
alternative full dataset the rtables framework will use only when calculating column counts.

col_counts

(numeric or NULL)
[Deprecated] if non-NULL, column counts for leaf-columns only which override those calculated automatically during tabulation. Must specify "counts" for all leaf-columns if non-NULL. NA elements will be replaced with the automatically calculated counts. Turns on display of leaf-column counts when non-NULL.

col_total

(integer(1))
the total observations across all columns. Defaults to nrow(df).

topleft

(character)
override values for the "top left" material to be displayed during printing.

hsep

(string)
set of characters to be repeated as the separator between the header and body of the table when rendered as text. Defaults to a connected horizontal line (unicode 2014) in locals that use a UTF charset, and to - elsewhere (with a once per session warning). See formatters::set_default_hsep() for further information.

...

ignored.

Details

When alt_counts_df is specified, column counts are calculated by applying the exact column subsetting expressions determined when applying column splitting to the main data (df) to alt_counts_df and counting the observations in each resulting subset.

In particular, this means that in the case of splitting based on cuts of the data, any dynamic cuts will have been calculated based on df and simply re-used for the count calculation.

Value

A TableTree or ElementaryTable object representing the table created by performing the tabulations declared in lyt to the data df.

Note

When overriding the column counts or totals care must be taken that, e.g., length() or nrow() are not called within tabulation functions, because those will NOT give the overridden counts. Writing/using tabulation functions which accept .N_col and .N_total or do not rely on column counts at all (even implicitly) is the only way to ensure overridden counts are fully respected.

Column-bind two TableTree objects

Description

Column-bind two TableTree objects

Usage

cbind_rtables(x, ..., sync_count_vis = TRUE)

Arguments

x

(TableTree or TableRow)
a table or row object.

...

one or more further objects of the same class as x.

sync_count_vis

(logical(1))
should column count visibility be synced across the new and existing columns. Currently defaults to TRUE for backwards compatibility but this may change in future releases.

Value

A formal table object.

Examples

x <- rtable(c("A", "B"), rrow("row 1", 1, 2), rrow("row 2", 3, 4))
y <- rtable("C", rrow("row 1", 5), rrow("row 2", 6))

Retrieve cell values by row and column path

Description

Retrieve cell values by row and column path

Usage

cell_values(tt, rowpath = NULL, colpath = NULL, omit_labrows = TRUE)

value_at(tt, rowpath = NULL, colpath = NULL)

## S4 method for signature 'VTableTree'
value_at(tt, rowpath = NULL, colpath = NULL)

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

rowpath

(character)
path in row-split space to the desired row(s). Can include "@content".

colpath

(character)
path in column-split space to the desired column(s). Can include "*".

omit_labrows

(flag)
whether label rows underneath rowpath should be omitted (TRUE, the default), or return empty lists of cell "values" (FALSE).

Value

  • cell_values returns a list (regardless of the type of value the cells hold). If rowpath defines a path to a single row, cell_values returns the list of cell values for that row, otherwise a list of such lists, one for each row captured underneath rowpath. This occurs after subsetting to colpath has occurred.

  • value_at returns the "unwrapped" value of a single cell, or an error, if the combination of rowpath and colpath do not define the location of a single cell in tt.

Note

cell_values will return a single cell's value wrapped in a list. Use value_at to receive the "bare" cell value.

a vector path for a position within the structure of a TableTree. Each element represents a subsequent choice amongst the children of the previous choice.

value

(ANY)
the new value.

Value

for colcount_visible a logical scalar indicating whether the specified position in the column hierarchy is set to display its column count; for ⁠colcount_visible<-⁠, obj updated with the specified count displaying behavior set.

Note

Users generally should not call colcount_visible directly, as setting sibling facets to have differing column count visibility will result in an error when printing or paginating the table.

Description

Collect leaves of a TableTree

Usage

collect_leaves(tt, incl.cont = TRUE, add.labrows = FALSE)

Arguments

tt

  split_cols_by("STRATA1") %>%
  split_cols_by("SEX", nested = FALSE) %>%
  analyze("AGE")

tbl <- build_table(lyt, ex_adsl)
coltree_structure(tbl)

Compare two rtables

Description

Prints a matrix where . means cell matches, X means cell does not match, + cell (row) is missing, and - cell (row) should not be there. If structure is set to TRUE, C indicates column-structure mismatch, R indicates row-structure mismatch, and S indicates mismatch in both row and column structure.

Usage

compare_rtables(
  object,
  expected,
  tol = 0.1,
  comp.attr = TRUE,
  structure = FALSE
)

Custom split functions

Description

Split functions provide the work-horse for rtables's generalized partitioning. These functions accept a (sub)set of incoming data and a split object, and return "splits" of that data.

Custom Splitting Function Details

User-defined custom split functions can perform any type of computation on the incoming data provided that they meet the requirements for generating "splits" of the incoming data based on the split object.

Split functions are functions that accept:

df

a data.frame of incoming data to be split.

spl

a Split object. This is largely an internal detail custom functions will not need to worry about, but obj_name(spl), for example, will give the name of the split as it will appear in paths in the resulting table.

vals

any pre-calculated values. If given non-NULL values, the values returned should match these. Should be NULL in most cases and can usually be ignored.

labels

any pre-calculated value labels. Same as above for values.

trim

if TRUE, resulting splits that are empty are removed.

(optional) .spl_context

a data.frame describing previously performed splits which collectively arrived at df.

The function must then output a named list with the following elements:

values

the vector of all values corresponding to the splits of df.

datasplit

a list of data.frames representing the groupings of the actual observations from df.

labels

a character vector giving a string label for each value listed in the values element above.

(optional) extras

if present, extra arguments are to be passed to summary and analysis functions whenever they are executed on the corresponding element of datasplit or a subset thereof.

One way to generate custom splitting functions is to wrap existing split functions and modify either the incoming data before they are called or their outputs.

See Also

make_split_fun() for the API for creating custom split functions, and split_funcs for a variety of pre-defined split functions.

Examples

# Example of a picky split function. The number of values in the column variable
# var decrees if we are going to print also the column with all observation
# or not.

picky_splitter <- function(var) {
  # Main layout function
  function(df, spl, vals, labels, trim) {
    orig_vals <- vals

    # Check for number of levels if all are selected
    if (is.null(vals)) {
      vec <- df[[var]]
      vals <- unique(vec)
    }

    # Do a split with or without All obs
    if (length(vals) == 1) {
      do_base_split(spl = spl, df = df, vals = vals, labels = labels, trim = trim)
    } else {
      fnc_tmp <- add_overall_level("Overall", label = "All Obs", first = FALSE)
      fnc_tmp(df = df, spl = spl, vals = orig_vals, trim = trim)
    }
  }
}

# Data sub-set
d1 <- subset(ex_adsl, ARM == "A: Drug X" | (ARM == "B: Placebo" & SEX == "F"))
d1 <- subset(d1, SEX %in% c("M", "F"))
d1$SEX <- factor(d1$SEX)

# This table uses the number of values in the SEX column to add the overall col or not
lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM", split_fun = drop_split_levels) %>%
  split_cols_by("SEX", split_fun = picky_splitter("SEX")) %>%
  analyze("AGE", show_labels = "visible")
tbl <- build_table(lyt, d1)
tbl

Generate a result data frame

Description

Collection of utilities to extract data.frame objects from TableTree objects.

Usage

as_result_df(tt, spec = "v0_experimental", simplify = FALSE, ...)

result_df_specs()

path_enriched_df(tt, path_fun = collapse_path, value_fun = collapse_values)

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

spec

(string)
the specification to use to extract the result data frame. See Details below.

simplify

(flag)
whether the result data frame should only have labels and result columns visible.

...

additional arguments passed to spec-specific result data frame conversion function. Currently it can be one or more of the following parameters (valid only for v0_experimental spec. for now):

  • expand_colnames: when TRUE, the result data frame will have expanded column names above the usual output. This is useful when the result data frame is used for further processing.

  • simplify: when TRUE, the result data frame will have only visible labels and result columns.

  • as_strings: when TRUE, the result data frame will have all values as strings, as they appear in the final table (it can also be retrieved from matrix_form(tt)$strings). This is also true for column counts if expand_colnames = TRUE.

  • as_viewer: when TRUE, the result data frame will have all values as they appear in the final table, i.e. with the same precision and numbers, but in easy-to-use numeric form.

  • keep_label_rows: when TRUE, the result data frame will have all labels as they appear in the final table.

  • as_is: when TRUE, the result data frame will have all the values as they appear in the final table, but without information about the row structure. Row labels will be assigned to rows so to work well with df_to_tt().

path_fun

(function)
function to transform paths into single-string row/column names.

value_fun

(function)
function to transform cell values into cells of a data.frame. Defaults to collapse_values, which creates strings where multi-valued cells are collapsed together, separated by |.

Details

as_result_df(): Result data frame specifications may differ in the exact information they include and the form in which they represent it. Specifications whose names end in "_experimental" are subject to change without notice, but specifications without the "_experimental" suffix will remain available including any bugs in their construction indefinitely.

Value

  • as_result_df returns a result data.frame.

  • result_df_specs() returns a named list of result data frame extraction functions by "specification".

  • path_enriched_df() returns a data.frame of tt's cell values (processed by value_fun, with columns named by the full column paths (processed by path_fun and an additional row_path column with the row paths (processed by path_fun).

Functions

  • result_df_specs(): A list of functions that extract result data frames from TableTrees.

  • path_enriched_df(): Transform a TableTree object to a path-enriched data.frame.

See Also

df_to_tt() when using as_is = TRUE and formatters::make_row_df() to have a comprehensive view of the hierarchical structure of the rows.

Examples

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
  split_rows_by("STRATA1") %>%
  analyze(c("AGE", "BMRKR2"))

tbl <- build_table(lyt, ex_adsl)

Create an ElementaryTable from a data.frame

Description

Create an ElementaryTable from a data.frame

Usage

df_to_tt(df)

Arguments

df

(data.frame)
a data frame.

Details

If row names are not defined in df (or they are simple numbers), then the row names are taken from the column label_name, if it exists. If label_name exists, then it is also removed from the original data. This behavior is compatible with as_result_df(), when as_is = TRUE and the row names are not unique.

See Also

as_result_df() for the inverse operation.

Examples

df_to_tt(mtcars)

Apply basic split (for use in custom split functions)

Description

This function is intended for use inside custom split functions. It applies the current split as if it had no custom splitting function so that those default splits can be further manipulated.

Usage

do_base_split(spl, df, vals = NULL, labels = NULL, trim = FALSE)

Arguments

spl

(Split)
a Split object defining a partitioning or analysis/tabulation of the data.

df

(data.frame or tibble)
dataset.

vals

(ANY)

labels

(character)
labels associated with vals. Should be NULL whenever vals is, which should almost always be the case.

trim

(flag)
whether groups corresponding to empty data subsets should be removed. Defaults to FALSE.

Value

The result of the split being applied as if it had no custom split function. See custom_split_funs.

Examples

uneven_splfun <- function(df, spl, vals = NULL, labels = NULL, trim = FALSE) {
  ret <- do_base_split(spl, df, vals, labels, trim)
  if (NROW(df) == 0) {
    ret <- lapply(ret, function(x) x[1])
  }
  ret
}

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
  split_cols_by_multivar(c("USUBJID", "AESEQ", "BMRKR1"),
    varlabels = c("N", "E", "BMR1"),
    split_fun = uneven_splfun
  ) %>%
  analyze_colvars(list(
    USUBJID = function(x, ...) length(unique(x)),
    AESEQ = max,
    BMRKR1 = mean
  ))

tbl <- build_table(lyt, subset(ex_adae, as.numeric(ARM) <= 2))
tbl

(string)
string that should be displayed when the value of x is missing. Defaults to "NA".

indent_mod

(numeric)
modifier for the default indent position for the structure created by this function (subtable, content table, or row) and all of that structure's children. Defaults to 0, which corresponds to the unmodified default behavior.

title

(string)
single string to use as main title (formatters::main_title()). Ignored for subtables.

a vector of strings to use as provenance-related global footer materials (formatters::prov_footer()), where every element is printed on a separate line.

header_section_div

(string)
string which will be used to divide the header from the table. See header_section_div() for the associated getter and setter. Please consider changing last element of section_div() when concatenating tables that require a divider between them.

hsep

(string)
set of characters to be repeated as the separator between the header and body of the table when rendered as text. Defaults to a connected horizontal line (unicode 2014) in locals that use a UTF charset, and to - elsewhere (with a once per session warning). See formatters::set_default_hsep() for further information.

trailing_section_div

(string)
string which will be used as a section divider after the printing of the last row contained in this (sub)table, unless that row is also the last table row to be printed overall, or NA_character_ for none (the default). When generated via layouting, this would correspond to the section_div of the split under which this table represents a single facet.

inset

(numeric(1))
number of spaces to inset the table header, table body, referential footnotes, and main_footer, as compared to alignment of title, subtitle, and provenance footer. Defaults to 0 (no inset).

Empty table, column, split objects

Description

Empty objects of various types to compare against efficiently.


Export as word document

Description

From a table, produce a self-contained word document or attach it to a template word file (template_file). This function is based on the tt_to_flextable() transformer and the officer package.

Usage

export_as_docx(
  tt,
  file,
  doc_metadata = NULL,
  titles_as_header = FALSE,
  footers_as_text = TRUE,
  template_file = NULL,
  section_properties = section_properties_default(),
  ...
)

section_properties_default(
  page_size = c("letter", "A4"),
  orientation = c("portrait", "landscape")
)

margins_potrait()

margins_landscape()

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

file

(string)
string that indicates the final file output. Must have .docx extension.

doc_metadata

(list of strings)
any value that can be used as metadata by ?officer::set_doc_properties. Important text values are title, subject, creator, and description, while created is a date object.

titles_as_header

(flag)
defaults to TRUE for tt_to_flextable(), so the table is self-contained as it makes additional header rows for formatters::main_title() string and formatters::subtitles() character vector (one per element). FALSE is suggested for export_as_docx(). This adds titles and subtitles as a text paragraph above the table. The same style is applied.

footers_as_text

(flag)
defaults to FALSE for tt_to_flextable(), so the table is self-contained with the flextable definition of footnotes. TRUE is used for export_as_docx() to add the footers as a new paragraph after the table. The same style is applied, but with a smaller font.

template_file

(string)
template file that officer will use as a starting point for the final document. Document attaches the table and uses the defaults defined in the template file.

section_properties

(officer::prop_section)
an officer::prop_section() object which sets margins and page size. Defaults to section_properties_default().

...

(any)
additional arguments passed to tt_to_flextable().

page_size

(character(1)) page size. Can be "letter" or "A4". Defaults to "letter".

orientation

(character(1)) page orientation. Can be "portrait" or "landscape". Defaults to "portrait".

Functions

  • section_properties_default(): Helper function that defines standard portrait properties for tables.

  • margins_potrait(): Helper function that defines standard portrait margins for tables.

  • margins_landscape(): Helper function that defines standard landscape margins for tables.

Note

export_as_docx() has few customization options available. If you require specific formats and details, we suggest that you use tt_to_flextable() prior to export_as_docx. Only the title_as_header and footer_as_text parameters must be re-specified if the table is changed first using tt_to_flextable().

See Also

tt_to_flextable()

Examples

library(flextable)
lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
  analyze(c("AGE", "BMRKR2", "COUNTRY"))

tbl <- build_table(lyt, ex_adsl)

# See how section_properties_portrait function is built for custom
tf <- tempfile(fileext = ".docx")
export_as_docx(tbl,
  file = tf,
  section_properties = section_properties_default(orientation = "landscape")
)

Create enriched flat value table with paths

Description

This function creates a flat tabular file of cell values and corresponding paths via path_enriched_df(). It then writes that data frame out as a tsv file.

Usage

export_as_tsv(
  tt,
  file = NULL,
  path_fun = collapse_path,
  value_fun = collapse_values,
  sep = "\t",
  ...
)

import_from_tsv(file)

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

file

(string)
the path of the file to written to or read from.

path_fun

(function)
function to transform paths into single-string row/column names.

value_fun

(function)
function to transform cell values into cells of a data.frame. Defaults to collapse_values, which creates strings where multi-valued cells are collapsed together, separated by |.

sep

(string)
defaults to ⁠\t⁠. See utils::write.table() for more details.

...

(any)
additional arguments to be passed to utils::write.table().

Details

By default (i.e. when value_func is not specified, list columns where at least one value has length > 1 are collapsed to character vectors by collapsing the list element with "|".

Value

  • export_as_tsv returns NULL silently.

  • import_from_tsv returns a data.frame with re-constituted list values.

Note

There is currently no round-trip capability for this type of export. You can read values exported this way back in via import_from_tsv but you will receive only the data.frame version back, NOT a TableTree.

See Also

path_enriched_df() for the underlying function that does the work.


Get or set column count for a facet in column space

Description

Get or set column count for a facet in column space

Usage

facet_colcount(obj, path)

## S4 method for signature 'LayoutColTree'
facet_colcount(obj, path = NULL)

## S4 method for signature 'LayoutColLeaf'
facet_colcount(obj, path = NULL)

## S4 method for signature 'VTableTree'
facet_colcount(obj, path)

## S4 method for signature 'InstantiatedColumnInfo'
facet_colcount(obj, path)

facet_colcount(obj, path) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'LayoutColTree'
facet_colcount(obj, path) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'LayoutColLeaf'
facet_colcount(obj, path) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'VTableTree'
facet_colcount(obj, path) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'InstantiatedColumnInfo'
facet_colcount(obj, path) <- value

Arguments

obj

(ANY)
the object for the accessor to access or modify.

path

character. This path must end on a split value, e.g., the level of a categorical variable that was split on in column space, but it need not be the path to an individual column.

value

(ANY)
the new value.

Value

for facet_colcount the current count associated with that facet in column space, for ⁠facet_colcount<-⁠, obj modified with the new column count for the specified facet.

Note

Updating a lower-level (more specific) column count manually will not update the counts for its parent facets. This cannot be made automatic because the rtables framework does not require sibling facets to be mutually exclusive (e.g., total "arm", faceting into cumulative quantiles, etc) and thus the count of a parent facet will not always be simply the sum of the counts for all of its children.

See Also

col_counts()

Examples

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM", show_colcounts = TRUE) %>%

keep_titles

(flag)
if TRUE (the default), all title material for the table will be carried over to the subset.

keep_footers

(flag)
if TRUE, all footer material for the table will be carried over to the subset. It defaults to keep_titles.

reindex_refs

Instantiated column info

Description

Instantiated column info

Usage

InstantiatedColumnInfo(
  treelyt = LayoutColTree(colcount = total_cnt),
  csubs = list(expression(TRUE)),
  extras = list(list()),
  cnts = NA_integer_,
  total_cnt = NA_integer_,
  dispcounts = FALSE,
  countformat = "(N=xx)",
  count_na_str = "",
  topleft = character()
)

Arguments

treelyt

(LayoutColTree)
a LayoutColTree object.

csubs

(list)
a list of subsetting expressions.

extras

(list)
extra arguments associated with the columns.

cnts

(integer)
counts.

total_cnt

(integer(1))
total observations represented across all columns.

dispcounts

(flag)
whether the counts should be displayed as header info when the associated table is printed.

countformat

(string)
format for the counts if they are displayed.

count_na_str

(character)
string to use in place of missing values when formatting counts. Defaults to "".

topleft

(character)
override values for the "top left" material to be displayed during printing.

Value

An InstantiateadColumnInfo object.


Check if an object is a valid rtable

Description

Check if an object is a valid rtable

Usage

is_rtable(x)

Arguments

x

(ANY)
an object.

Value

TRUE if x is a formal TableTree object, FALSE otherwise.

Examples

is_rtable(build_table(basic_table(), iris))

Label at path

Description

Accesses or sets the label at a path.

Usage

label_at_path(tt, path)

label_at_path(tt, path) <- value

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

path

(character)
a vector path for a position within the structure of a TableTree. Each element represents a subsequent choice amongst the children of the previous choice.

value

(ANY)
the new value.

Details

If path resolves to a single row, the label for that row is retrieved or set. If, instead, path resolves to a subtable, the text for the row-label associated with that path is retrieved or set. In the subtable case, if the label text is set to a non-NA value, the labelrow will be set to visible, even if it was not before. Similarly, if the label row text for a subtable is set to NA, the label row will bet set to non-visible, so the row will not appear at all when the table is printed.

Note

When changing the row labels for content rows, it is important to path all the way to the row. Paths ending in "@content" will not exhibit the behavior you want, and are thus an error. See row_paths() for help determining the full paths to content rows.

Examples

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_rows_by("COUNTRY", split_fun = keep_split_levels(c("CHN", "USA"))) %>%
  analyze("AGE")

tbl <- build_table(lyt, DM)

label_at_path(tbl, c("COUNTRY", "CHN"))

label_at_path(tbl, c("COUNTRY", "USA")) <- "United States"

a label (not to be confused with the name) for the object/structure.

name

(string)
name of the split/table/row being created. Defaults to the value of the corresponding label, but is not required to be.

(flag)
whether the row should be visible (LabelRow only).

cinfo

(InstantiatedColumnInfo or NULL)
column structure for the object being created.

indent_mod

(numeric)
modifier for the default indent position for the structure created by this function (subtable, content table, or row) and all of that structure's children. Defaults to 0, which corresponds to the unmodified default behavior.

table_inset

(numeric(1))
number of spaces to inset the table header, table body, referential footnotes, and main footer, as compared to alignment of title, subtitles, and provenance footer. Defaults to 0 (no inset).

trailing_section_div

(string)
string which will be used as a section divider after the printing of the last row contained in this (sub)table, unless that row is also the last table row to be printed overall, or NA_character_ for none (the default). When generated via layouting, this would correspond to the section_div of the split under which this table represents a single facet.

vals

(list)
cell values for the row.

cspan

(integer)
column span. 1 indicates no spanning.

var

(string)
variable name.

format

(string, function, or list)
format associated with this split. Formats can be declared via strings ("xx.x") or function. In cases such as analyze calls, they can be character vectors or lists of functions. See formatters::list_valid_format_labels() for a list of all available format strings.

na_str

(string)
string that should be displayed when the value of x is missing. Defaults to "NA".

Value

Always returns 1L.


Returns a function that coerces the return values of a function to a list

Description

Returns a function that coerces the return values of a function to a list

Usage

list_wrap_x(f)

list_wrap_df(f)

Arguments

f

(function)
the function to wrap.

Details

list_wrap_x generates a wrapper which takes x as its first argument, while list_wrap_df generates an otherwise identical wrapper function whose first argument is named df.

We provide both because when using the functions as tabulation in analyze(), functions which take df as their first argument are passed the full subset data frame, while those which accept anything else notably including x are passed only the relevant subset of the variable being analyzed.

Value

A function that returns a list of CellValue objects.

Author(s)

Gabriel Becker

Examples

summary(iris$Sepal.Length)

f <- list_wrap_x(summary)
f(x = iris$Sepal.Length)

f2 <- list_wrap_df(summary)
f2(df = iris$Sepal.Length)

Create a custom analysis function wrapping an existing function

Description

Create a custom analysis function wrapping an existing function

Usage

make_afun(
  fun,
  .stats = NULL,
  .formats = NULL,
  .labels = NULL,
  .indent_mods = NULL,
  .ungroup_stats = NULL,
  .format_na_strs = NULL,
  ...,
  .null_ref_cells = ".in_ref_col" %in% names(formals(fun))
)

Arguments

fun

(function)
the function to be wrapped in a new customized analysis function. fun should return a named list.

.stats

(character)
names of elements to keep from fun's full output.

.formats

(ANY)
vector or list of formats to override any defaults applied by fun.

.labels

(character)
vector of labels to override defaults returned by fun.

.indent_mods

(integer)
named vector of indent modifiers for the generated rows.

.ungroup_stats

(character)
vector of names, which must match elements of .stats.

.format_na_strs

(ANY)
vector/list of NA strings to override any defaults applied by fun.

...

additional arguments to fun which effectively become new defaults. These can still be overridden by extra_args within a split.

.null_ref_cells

(flag)
whether cells for the reference column should be NULL-ed by the returned analysis function. Defaults to TRUE if fun accepts .in_ref_col as a formal argument. Note this argument occurs after ... so it must be fully specified by name when set.

Value

A function suitable for use in analyze() with element selection, reformatting, and relabeling performed automatically.

Note

Setting .ungroup_stats to non-NULL changes the structure of the value(s) returned by fun, rather than just labeling (.labels), formatting (.formats), and selecting amongst (.stats) them. This means that subsequent make_afun calls to customize the output further both can and must operate on the new structure, not the original structure returned by fun. See the final pair of examples below.

Create a custom splitting function

Description

Create a custom splitting function

Usage

make_split_fun(pre = list(), core_split = NULL, post = list())

Arguments

pre

(list)
zero or more functions which operate on the incoming data and return a new data frame that should split via core_split. They will be called on the data in the order they appear in the list.

core_split

(function or NULL)
if non-NULL, a function which accepts the same arguments that do_base_split does, and returns the same type of named list. Custom functions which override this behavior cannot be used in column splits.

post

(list)
zero or more functions which should be called on the list output by splitting.

Details

Custom split functions can be thought of as (up to) 3 different types of manipulations of the splitting process:

  1. Pre-processing of the incoming data to be split.

  2. (Row-splitting only) Customization of the core mapping of incoming data to facets.

  3. Post-processing operations on the set of facets (groups) generated by the split.

This function provides an interface to create custom split functions by implementing and specifying sets of operations in each of those classes of customization independently.

Pre-processing functions (1), must accept: df, spl, vals, and labels, and can optionally accept .spl_context. They then manipulate df (the incoming data for the split) and return a modified data frame. This modified data frame must contain all columns present in the incoming data frame, but can add columns if necessary (though we note that these new columns cannot be used in the layout as split or analysis variables, because they will not be present when validity checking is done).

The preprocessing component is useful for things such as manipulating factor levels, e.g., to trim unobserved ones or to reorder levels based on observed counts, etc.

Core splitting functions override the fundamental splitting procedure, and are only necessary in rare cases. These must accept spl, df, vals, labels, and can optionally accept .spl_context. They should return a split result object constructed via make_split_result().

In particular, if the custom split function will be used in column space, subsetting expressions (e.g., as returned by quote() or bquote must be provided, while they are optional (and largely ignored, currently) in row space.

Post-processing functions (3) must accept the result of the core split as their first argument (which can be anything), in addition to spl, and fulldf, and can optionally accept .spl_context. They must each return a modified version of the same structure specified above for core splitting.

In both the pre- and post-processing cases, multiple functions can be specified. When this happens, they are applied sequentially, in the order they appear in the list passed to the relevant argument (pre and post, respectively).

Value

A custom function that can be used as a split function.

)

Arguments

obj

(ANY)
the object for the accessor to access or modify.

value

(ANY)
the new value.

x

(ANY)
an object.

colwidths

(numeric)
a vector of column widths for use in vertical pagination.

max_width

(numeric(1))
width that strings should be wrapped to when determining how many lines they require.

fontspec

(font_spec)
a font_spec object specifying the font information to use for calculating string widths and heights, as returned by font_spec().

col_gap

(numeric(1))
width of gap between columns in number of spaces. Only used by methods which must calculate span widths after wrapping.

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

visible_only

(flag)
should only visible aspects of the table structure be reflected in this summary. Defaults to TRUE. May not be supported by all methods.

rownum

(numeric(1))
internal detail, do not set manually.

indent

(integer(1))
internal detail, do not set manually.

path

(character)
a vector path for a position within the structure of a TableTree. Each element represents a subsequent choice amongst the children of the previous choice.

incontent

(flag)
internal detail, do not set manually.

repr_ext

(integer(1))
internal detail, do not set manually.

repr_inds

(integer)
internal detail, do not set manually.

sibpos

(integer(1))
internal detail, do not set manually.

nsibs

(integer(1))
internal detail, do not set manually.

Details

When visible_only is TRUE (the default), methods should return a data.frame with exactly one row per visible row in the table-like object. This is useful when reasoning about how a table will print, but does not reflect the full pathing space of the structure (though the paths which are given will all work as is).

If supported, when visible_only is FALSE, every structural element of the table (in row-space) will be reflected in the returned data.frame, meaning the full pathing-space will be represented but some rows in the layout summary will not represent printed rows in the table as it is displayed.

Most arguments beyond tt and visible_only are present so that make_row_df methods can call make_row_df recursively and retain information, and should not be set during a top-level call.

Value

  • Accessor functions return the current value of the component being accessed of obj

  • Setter functions return a modified copy of obj with the new value.

Note

The technically present root tree node is excluded from the summary returned by both make_row_df and make_col_df (see relevant functions inrtables), as it is the row/column structure of tt and thus not useful for pathing or pagination.

Examples

# Expected error with matrix_form. For real case examples consult {rtables} documentation
mf <- basic_matrix_form(iris)
# make_row_df(mf) # Use table obj instead

tf_wrap

(flag)
whether the text for title, subtitles, and footnotes should be wrapped.

Details

rtables pagination is context aware, meaning that label rows and row-group summaries (content rows) are repeated after (vertical) pagination, as appropriate. This allows the reader to immediately understand where they are in the table after turning to a new page, but does also mean that a rendered, paginated table will take up more lines of text than rendering the table without pagination would.

Pagination also takes into account word-wrapping of title, footer, column-label, and formatted cell value content.

Vertical pagination information (pagination data.frame) is created using (make_row_df).

Horizontal pagination is performed by creating a pagination data frame for the columns, and then applying the same algorithm used for vertical pagination to it.

If physical page size and font information are specified, these are used to derive lines-per-page (lpp) and characters-per-page (cpp) values.

The full multi-direction pagination algorithm then is as follows:

  1. Adjust lpp and cpp to account for rendered elements that are not rows (columns):

  • titles/footers/column labels, and horizontal dividers in the vertical pagination case

  • row-labels, table_inset, and top-left materials in the horizontal case

  1. Perform 'forced pagination' representing page-by row splits, generating 1 or more tables.

  2. Perform vertical pagination separately on each table generated in (1).

  3. Perform horizontal pagination on the entire table and apply the results to each table page generated in (1)-(2).

  4. Return a list of subtables representing full bi-directional pagination.

Pagination in both directions is done using the Core Pagination Algorithm implemented in the formatters package:

Value

  • pag_tt_indices returns a list of paginated-groups of row-indices of tt.

  • paginate_table returns the subtables defined by subsetting by the indices defined by pag_tt_indices.

Pagination Algorithm

Pagination is performed independently in the vertical and horizontal directions based solely on a pagination data frame, which includes the following information for each row/column:

  • Number of lines/characters rendering the row will take after word-wrapping (self_extent)

  • The indices (reprint_inds) and number of lines (par_extent) of the rows which act as context for the row

  • The row's number of siblings and position within its siblings

Given lpp (cpp) is already adjusted for rendered elements which are not rows/columns and a data frame of pagination information, pagination is performed via the following algorithm with start = 1.

Core Pagination Algorithm:

  1. Initial guess for pagination position is start + lpp (start + cpp)

  2. While the guess is not a valid pagination position, and guess > start, decrement guess and repeat.

    • An error is thrown if all possible pagination positions between start and start + lpp (start + cpp) would be ⁠< start⁠ after decrementing

  3. Retain pagination index

  4. If pagination point was less than NROW(tt) (ncol(tt)), set start to pos + 1, and repeat steps (1) - (4).

Validating Pagination Position:

Given an (already adjusted) lpp or cpp value, a pagination is invalid if:

  • The rows/columns on the page would take more than (adjusted) lpp lines/cpp characters to render including:

    • word-wrapping

    • (vertical only) context repetition

  • (vertical only) footnote messages and/or section divider lines take up too many lines after rendering rows

  • (vertical only) row is a label or content (row-group summary) row

  • (vertical only) row at the pagination point has siblings, and it has less than min_siblings preceding or following siblings

  • pagination would occur within a sub-table listed in nosplitin

Usage

qtable_layout(
  data,
  row_vars = character(),
  col_vars = character(),
  avar = NULL,
  row_labels = NULL,
  afun = NULL,
  summarize_groups = FALSE,
  title = "",
  subtitles = character(),
  main_footer = character(),
  prov_footer = character(),
  show_colcounts = TRUE,
  drop_levels = TRUE,
  ...,
  .default_rlabel = NULL
)

qtable(
  data,
  row_vars = character(),
  col_vars = character(),
  avar = NULL,
  row_labels = NULL,
  afun = NULL,
  summarize_groups = FALSE,
  title = "",
  subtitles = character(),
  main_footer = character(),
  prov_footer = character(),
  show_colcounts = TRUE,
  drop_levels = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

data

(data.frame)
the data to tabulate.

row_vars

(character)
the names of variables to be used in row facetting.

col_vars

(character)
the names of variables to be used in column facetting.

avar

(string)
the variable to be analyzed. Defaults to the first variable in data.

row_labels

(character or NULL)
row label(s) which should be applied to the analysis rows. Length must match the number of rows generated by afun.

afun

(function)
the function to generate the analysis row cell values. This can be a proper analysis function, or a function which returns a vector or list. Vectors are taken as multi-valued single cells, whereas lists are interpreted as multiple cells.

summarize_groups

(flag)
whether each level of nesting should include marginal summary rows. Defaults to FALSE.

title

(string)
single string to use as main title (formatters::main_title()). Ignored for subtables.

subtitles

(character)
a vector of strings to use as subtitles (formatters::subtitles()), where every element is printed on a separate line. Ignored for subtables.

main_footer

(character)
a vector of strings to use as main global (non-referential) footer materials (formatters::main_footer()), where every element is printed on a separate line.

prov_footer

(character)
a vector of strings to use as provenance-related global footer materials (formatters::prov_footer()), where every element is printed on a separate line.

show_colcounts

(logical(1))
Indicates whether the lowest level of applied to data. NA, the default, indicates that the show_colcounts argument(s) passed to the relevant calls to ⁠split_cols_by*⁠ functions. Non-missing values will override the behavior specified in column splitting layout instructions which create the lowest level, or leaf, columns.

drop_levels

(flag)
whether unobserved factor levels should be dropped during facetting. Defaults to TRUE.

...

additional arguments passed to afun.

.default_rlabel

(string)
this is an implementation detail that should not be set by end users.

Details

This function creates a table with a single top-level structure in both row and column dimensions involving faceting by 0 or more variables in each dimension.

The display of the table depends on certain details of the tabulation. In the case of an afun which returns a single cell's contents (either a scalar or a vector of 2 or 3 elements), the label rows for the deepest-nested row facets will be hidden and the labels used there will be used as the analysis row labels. In the case of an afun which returns a list (corresponding to multiple cells), the names of the list will be used as the analysis row labels and the deepest-nested facet row labels will be visible.

The table will be annotated in the top-left area with an informative label displaying the analysis variable (avar), if set, and the function used (captured via substitute) where possible, or 'count' if not. One exception where the user may directly modify the top-left area (via row_labels) is the case of a table with row facets and an afun which returns a single row.

Value

  • qtable returns a built TableTree object representing the desired table

  • qtable_layout returns a PreDataTableLayouts object declaring the structure of the desired table, suitable for passing to build_table().

Examples

qtable(ex_adsl)
qtable(ex_adsl, row_vars = "ARM")
qtable(ex_adsl, col_vars = "ARM")
qtable(ex_adsl, row_vars = "SEX", col_vars = "ARM")
qtable(ex_adsl, row_vars = c("COUNTRY", "SEX"), col_vars = c("ARM", "STRATA1"))
qtable(ex_adsl,
  row_vars = c("COUNTRY", "SEX"),
  col_vars = c("ARM", "STRATA1"), avar = "AGE", afun = mean
)
summary_list <- function(x, ...) as.list(summary(x))
qtable(ex_adsl, row_vars = "SEX", col_vars = "ARM", avar = "AGE", afun = summary_list)
suppressWarnings(qtable(ex_adsl,
  row_vars = "SEX",
  col_vars = "ARM", avar = "AGE", afun = range
))

Sanitize degenerate table structures

Description

[Experimental]

Experimental function to correct structure of degenerate tables by adding messaging rows to empty sub-structures.

Usage

sanitize_table_struct(tt, empty_msg = "-- This Section Contains No Data --")

Arguments

tt

(TableTree)
a TableTree object.

empty_msg

(string)
the string which should be spanned across the inserted empty rows.

Details

This function locates degenerate portions of the table (including the table overall in the case of a table with no data rows) and inserts a row which spans all columns with the message empty_msg at each one, generating a table guaranteed to be non-degenerate.

Value

If tt is already valid, it is returned unmodified. If tt is degenerate, a modified, non-degenerate version of the table is returned.

See Also

Other table structure validation functions: find_degen_struct(), validate_table_struct()

Examples

sanitize_table_struct(rtable("cool beans"))

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
  split_rows_by("SEX") %>%
  summarize_row_groups()

## Degenerate because it doesn't have any analyze calls -> no data rows
badtab <- build_table(lyt, DM)
sanitize_table_struct(badtab)

Section dividers accessor and setter

Description

section_div can be used to set or get the section divider for a table object produced by build_table(). When assigned in post-processing (⁠section_div<-⁠) the table can have a section divider after every row, each assigned independently. If assigning during layout creation, only split_rows_by() (and its related row-wise splits) and analyze() have a section_div parameter that will produce separators between split sections and data subgroups, respectively.

Usage

section_div(obj)

## S4 method for signature 'VTableTree'
section_div(obj)

## S4 method for signature 'list'
section_div(obj)

## S4 method for signature 'TableRow'
section_div(obj)

section_div(obj, only_sep_sections = FALSE) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'VTableTree'
section_div(obj, only_sep_sections = FALSE) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'list'
section_div(obj, only_sep_sections = FALSE) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'TableRow'
section_div(obj, only_sep_sections = FALSE) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'LabelRow'
section_div(obj, only_sep_sections = FALSE) <- value

header_section_div(obj)

## S4 method for signature 'PreDataTableLayouts'
header_section_div(obj)

## S4 method for signature 'VTableTree'
header_section_div(obj)

header_section_div(obj) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'PreDataTableLayouts'
header_section_div(obj) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'VTableTree'
header_section_div(obj) <- value

top_level_section_div(obj)

## S4 method for signature 'PreDataTableLayouts'
top_level_section_div(obj)

top_level_section_div(obj) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'PreDataTableLayouts'
top_level_section_div(obj) <- value

Arguments

obj

(VTableTree)
table object. This can be of any class that inherits from VTableTree or TableRow/LabelRow.

only_sep_sections

(flag)
defaults to FALSE for ⁠section_div<-⁠. Allows you to set the section divider only for sections that are splits or analyses if the number of values is less than the number of rows in the table. If TRUE, the section divider will be set for all rows of the table.

value

(character)
vector of single characters to use as section dividers. Each character is repeated such that all section dividers span the width of the table. Each character that is not NA_character_ will produce a trailing separator for each row of the table. value length should reflect the number of rows, or be between 1 and the number of splits/levels. See the Details section below for more information.

Details

Assigned value to section divider must be a character vector. If any value is NA_character_ the section divider will be absent for that row or section. When you want to only affect sections or splits, please use only_sep_sections or provide a shorter vector than the number of rows. Ideally, the length of the vector should be less than the number of splits with, eventually, the leaf-level, i.e. DataRow where analyze results are. Note that if only one value is inserted, only the first split will be affected. If only_sep_sections = TRUE, which is the default for section_div() produced from the table construction, the section divider will be set for all the splits and eventually analyses, but not for the header or each row of the table. This can be set with header_section_div in basic_table() or, eventually, with hsep in build_table(). If FALSE, the section divider will be set for all the rows of the table.

Value

The section divider string. Each line that does not have a trailing separator will have NA_character_ as section divider.

See Also

basic_table() parameter header_section_div and top_level_section_div for global section dividers.

Examples

# Data

  cat = c(
    "really long thing its so ", "long"

Sorting a table at a specific path

Description

Main sorting function to order the sub-structure of a TableTree at a particular path in the table tree.

Usage

sort_at_path(
  tt,
  path,
  scorefun,
  decreasing = NA,
  na.pos = c("omit", "last", "first"),
  .prev_path = character()
)

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

path

(character)
a vector path for a position within the structure of a TableTree. Each element represents a subsequent choice amongst the children of the previous choice.

scorefun

(function)
scoring function. Should accept the type of children directly under the position at path (either VTableTree, VTableRow, or VTableNodeInfo, which covers both) and return a numeric value to be sorted.

decreasing

(flag)
whether the scores generated by scorefun should be sorted in decreasing order. If unset (the default of NA), it is set to TRUE if the generated scores are numeric and FALSE if they are characters.

na.pos

(string)
what should be done with children (sub-trees/rows) with NA scores. Defaults to "omit", which removes them. Other allowed values are "last" and "first", which indicate where NA scores should be placed in the order.

.prev_path

(character)
internal detail, do not set manually.

Details

sort_at_path, given a path, locates the (sub)table(s) described by the path (see below for handling of the "*" wildcard). For each such subtable, it then calls scorefun on each direct child of the table, using the resulting scores to determine their sorted order. tt is then modified to reflect each of these one or more sorting operations.

In path, a leading "root" element will be ignored, regardless of whether this matches the object name (and thus actual root path name) of tt. Including "root" in paths where it does not match the name of tt may mask deeper misunderstandings of how valid paths within a TableTree object correspond to the layout used to originally declare it, which we encourage users to avoid.

path can include the "wildcard" "*" as a step, which translates roughly to any node/branching element and means that each child at that step will be separately sorted based on scorefun and the remaining path entries. This can occur multiple times in a path.

A list of valid (non-wildcard) paths can be seen in the path column of the data.frame created by formatters::make_row_df() with the visible_only argument set to FALSE. It can also be inferred from the summary given by table_structure().

Note that sorting needs a deeper understanding of table structure in rtables. Please consider reading the related vignette (Sorting and Pruning) and explore table structure with useful functions like table_structure() and row_paths_summary(). It is also very important to understand the difference between "content" rows and "data" rows. The first one analyzes and describes the split variable generally and is generated with summarize_row_groups(), while the second one is commonly produced by calling one of the various analyze() instances.

Built-in score functions are cont_n_allcols() and cont_n_onecol(). They are both working with content rows (coming from summarize_row_groups()) while a custom score function needs to be used on DataRows. Here, some useful descriptor and accessor functions (coming from related vignette):

  • cell_values() - Retrieves a named list of a TableRow or TableTree object's values.

  • formatters::obj_name() - Retrieves the name of an object. Note this can differ from the label that is displayed (if any is) when printing.

  • formatters::obj_label() - Retrieves the display label of an object. Note this can differ from the name that appears in the path.

  • content_table() - Retrieves a TableTree object's content table (which contains its summary rows).

  • tree_children() - Retrieves a TableTree object's direct children (either subtables, rows or possibly a mix thereof, though that should not happen in practice).

Value

A TableTree with the same structure as tt with the exception that the requested sorting has been done at path.

.spl_context within analysis and split functions

Description

.spl_context is an optional parameter for any of rtables' special functions, i.e. afun (analysis function in analyze()), cfun (content or label function in summarize_row_groups()), or split_fun (e.g. for split_rows_by()).

Details

The .spl_context data.frame gives information about the subsets of data corresponding to the splits within which the current analyze action is nested. Taken together, these correspond to the path that the resulting (set of) rows the analysis function is creating, although the information is in a slightly different form. Each split (which correspond to groups of rows in the resulting table), as well as the initial 'root' "split", is represented via the following columns:

split

The name of the split (often the variable being split).

value

The string representation of the value at that split (split).

full_parent_df

A data.frame containing the full data (i.e. across all columns) corresponding to the path defined by the combination of split and value of this row and all rows above this row.

all_cols_n

The number of observations corresponding to the row grouping (union of all columns).

column for each column in the table structure (row-split and analyze contexts only)

These list columns (named the same as names(col_exprs(tab))) contain logical vectors corresponding to the subset of this row's full_parent_df corresponding to the column.

cur_col_id

Identifier of the current column. This may be an internal name, constructed by pasting the column path together.

cur_col_subset

List column containing logical vectors indicating the subset of this row's full_parent_df for the column currently being created by the analysis function.

cur_col_expr

List of current column expression. This may be used to filter .alt_df_row, or any external data, by column. Filtering .alt_df_row by columns produces .alt_df.

cur_col_n

Integer column containing the observation counts for that split.

cur_col_split

Current column split names. This is recovered from the current column path.

cur_col_split_val

Current column split values. This is recovered from the current column path.

Note

Within analysis functions that accept .spl_context, the all_cols_n and cur_col_n columns of the data frame will contain the 'true' observation counts corresponding to the row-group and row-group x column subsets of the data. These numbers will not, and currently cannot, reflect alternate column observation counts provided by the alt_counts_df, col_counts or col_total arguments to build_table().


Translate spl_context to a path to display in error messages

Description

Translate spl_context to a path to display in error messages

Usage

spl_context_to_disp_path(ctx)

Arguments

ctx

(data.frame)
the spl_context data frame where the error occurred.

Value

A character string containing a description of the row path corresponding to ctx.


Variable associated with a split

Description

This function is intended for use when writing custom splitting logic. In cases where the split is associated with a single variable, the name of that variable will be returned. At time of writing this includes splits generated via the split_rows_by(), split_cols_by(), split_rows_by_cuts(), split_cols_by_cuts(), split_rows_by_cutfun(), and split_cols_by_cutfun() layout directives.

Usage

spl_variable(spl)

## S4 method for signature 'VarLevelSplit'
spl_variable(spl)

## S4 method for signature 'VarDynCutSplit'
spl_variable(spl)

## S4 method for signature 'VarStaticCutSplit'
spl_variable(spl)

## S4 method for signature 'Split'
spl_variable(spl)

Arguments

spl

(VarLevelSplit)
the split object.

Value

For splits with a single variable associated with them, returns the split. Otherwise, an error is raised.

split_fun

(function or NULL)
custom splitting function. See custom_split_funs.

format

(string, function, or list)
format associated with this split. Formats can be declared via strings ("xx.x") or function. In cases such as analyze calls, they can be character vectors or lists of functions. See formatters::list_valid_format_labels() for a list of all available format strings.

nested

(logical)
whether this layout instruction should be applied within the existing layout structure if possible (TRUE, the default) or as a new top-level element (FALSE). Ignored if it would nest a split underneath analyses, which is not allowed.

child_labels

(string)
the display behavior for the labels (i.e. label rows) of the children of this split. Accepts "default", "visible", and "hidden". Defaults to "default" which flags the label row as visible only if the child has 0 content rows.

extra_args

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to the tabulation function. Element position in the list corresponds to the children of this split. Named elements in the child-specific lists are ignored if they do not match a formal argument of the tabulation function.

ref_group

(string or NULL)
level of var that should be considered ref_group/reference.

show_colcounts

(logical(1))
should column counts be displayed at the level facets created by this split. Defaults to FALSE.

colcount_format

(character(1))
if show_colcounts is TRUE, the format which should be used to display column counts for facets generated by this split. Defaults to "(N=xx)".

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

Custom Splitting Function Details

User-defined custom split functions can perform any type of computation on the incoming data provided that they meet the requirements for generating "splits" of the incoming data based on the split object.

Split functions are functions that accept:

df

a data.frame of incoming data to be split.

spl

a Split object. This is largely an internal detail custom functions will not need to worry about, but obj_name(spl), for example, will give the name of the split as it will appear in paths in the resulting table.

vals

any pre-calculated values. If given non-NULL values, the values returned should match these. Should be NULL in most cases and can usually be ignored.

labels

any pre-calculated value labels. Same as above for values.

trim

if TRUE, resulting splits that are empty are removed.

(optional) .spl_context

a data.frame describing previously performed splits which collectively arrived at df.

The function must then output a named list with the following elements:

values

the vector of all values corresponding to the splits of df.

datasplit

a list of data.frames representing the groupings of the actual observations from df.

labels

a character vector giving a string label for each value listed in the values element above.

(optional) extras

if present, extra arguments are to be passed to summary and analysis functions whenever they are executed on the corresponding element of datasplit or a subset thereof.

One way to generate custom splitting functions is to wrap existing split functions and modify either the incoming data before they are called or their outputs.

  indent_mod = 0L,
  label_pos = "hidden",
  section_div = NA_character_
)

Arguments

lyt

(PreDataTableLayouts)
layout object pre-data used for tabulation.

var

(string)
variable name.

cuts

(numeric)
cuts to use.

cutlabels

(character or NULL)
labels for the cuts.

split_label

(string)
label to be associated with the table generated by the split. Not to be confused with labels assigned to each child (which are based on the data and type of split during tabulation).

nested

(logical)
whether this layout instruction should be applied within the existing layout structure if possible (TRUE, the default) or as a new top-level element (FALSE). Ignored if it would nest a split underneath analyses, which is not allowed.

cumulative

(flag)
whether the cuts should be treated as cumulative. Defaults to FALSE.

show_colcounts

(logical(1))
should column counts be displayed at the level facets created by this split. Defaults to FALSE.

colcount_format

(character(1))
if show_colcounts is TRUE, the format which should be used to display column counts for facets generated by this split. Defaults to "(N=xx)".

format

(string, function, or list)
format associated with this split. Formats can be declared via strings ("xx.x") or function. In cases such as analyze calls, they can be character vectors or lists of functions. See formatters::list_valid_format_labels() for a list of all available format strings.

na_str

(string)
string that should be displayed when the value of x is missing. Defaults to "NA".

label_pos

(string)
location where the variable label should be displayed. Accepts "hidden" (default for non-analyze row splits), "visible", "topleft", and "default" (for analyze splits only). For analyze calls, "default" indicates that the variable should be visible if and only if multiple variables are analyzed at the same level of nesting.

section_div

(string)
string which should be repeated as a section divider after each group defined by this split instruction, or NA_character_ (the default) for no section divider.

cutfun

(function)
function which accepts the full vector of var values and returns cut points to be used (via cut) when splitting data during tabulation.

cutlabelfun

(function)
function which returns either labels for the cuts or NULL when passed the return value of cutfun.

extra_args

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to the tabulation function. Element position in the list corresponds to the children of this split. Named elements in the child-specific lists are ignored if they do not match a formal argument of the tabulation function.

child_labels

(string)
the display behavior for the labels (i.e. label rows) of the children of this split. Accepts "default", "visible", and "hidden". Defaults to "default" which flags the label row as visible only if the child has 0 content rows.

indent_mod

(numeric)
modifier for the default indent position for the structure created by this function (subtable, content table, or row) and all of that structure's children. Defaults to 0, which corresponds to the unmodified default behavior.

Details

For dynamic cuts, the cut is transformed into a static cut by build_table() based on the full dataset, before proceeding. Thus even when nested within another split in column/row space, the resulting split will reflect the overall values (e.g., quartiles) in the dataset, NOT the values for subset it is nested under.

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

Associate multiple variables with columns

Description

In some cases, the variable to be ultimately analyzed is most naturally defined on a column, not a row, basis. When we need columns to reflect different variables entirely, rather than different levels of a single variable, we use split_cols_by_multivar.

Usage

split_cols_by_multivar(
  lyt,
  vars,
  split_fun = NULL,
  varlabels = vars,
  varnames = NULL,
  nested = TRUE,
  extra_args = list(),
  show_colcounts = FALSE,
  colcount_format = NULL
)

Arguments

lyt

(PreDataTableLayouts)
layout object pre-data used for tabulation.

vars

(character)
vector of variable names.

split_fun

(function or NULL)
custom splitting function. See custom_split_funs.

varlabels

(character)
vector of labels for vars.

varnames

(character)
vector of names for vars which will appear in pathing. When vars are all unique this will be the variable names. If not, these will be variable names with suffixes as necessary to enforce uniqueness.

nested

(logical)
whether this layout instruction should be applied within the existing layout structure if possible (TRUE, the default) or as a new top-level element (FALSE). Ignored if it would nest a split underneath analyses, which is not allowed.

extra_args

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to the tabulation function. Element position in the list corresponds to the children of this split. Named elements in the child-specific lists are ignored if they do not match a formal argument of the tabulation function.

show_colcounts

(logical(1))
should column counts be displayed at the level facets created by this split. Defaults to FALSE.

colcount_format

(character(1))
if show_colcounts is TRUE, the format which should be used to display column counts for facets generated by this split. Defaults to "(N=xx)".

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

Split functions

Description

This is a collection of useful, default split function that can help you in dividing the data, hence the table rows or columns, into different parts or groups (splits). You can also create your own split function if you need to create a custom division as specific as you need. Please consider reading custom_split_funs if this is the case. Beyond this list of functions, you can also use add_overall_level() and add_combo_levels() for adding or modifying levels and trim_levels_to_map() to provide possible level combinations to filter the split with.

Usage

keep_split_levels(only, reorder = TRUE)

remove_split_levels(excl)

drop_split_levels(df, spl, vals = NULL, labels = NULL, trim = FALSE)

drop_and_remove_levels(excl)

reorder_split_levels(neworder, newlabels = neworder, drlevels = TRUE)

trim_levels_in_group(innervar, drop_outlevs = TRUE)

Arguments

only

(character)
levels to retain (all others will be dropped). If none of the levels is present an empty table is returned.

reorder

(flag)
whether the order of only should be used as the order of the children of the split. Defaults to TRUE.

excl

(character)
levels to be excluded (they will not be reflected in the resulting table structure regardless of presence in the data).

df

(data.frame or tibble)
dataset.

spl

(Split)
a Split object defining a partitioning or analysis/tabulation of the data.

vals

(ANY)
for internal use only.

labels

(character)
labels to use for the remaining levels instead of the existing ones.

trim

(flag)
whether splits corresponding with 0 observations should be kept when tabulating.

neworder

(character)
new order of factor levels. All need to be present in the data. To add empty levels, rely on pre-processing or create your custom_split_funs.

newlabels

(character)
labels for (new order of) factor levels. If named, the levels are matched. Otherwise, the order of neworder is used.

drlevels

(flag)
whether levels that are not in neworder should be dropped. Default is TRUE. Note: drlevels = TRUE does not drop levels that are not originally in the data. Rely on pre-processing or use a combination of split functions with make_split_fun() to also drop unused levels.

innervar

(string)
variable whose factor levels should be trimmed (e.g. empty levels dropped) separately within each grouping defined at this point in the structure.

drop_outlevs

(flag)
whether empty levels in the variable being split on (i.e. the "outer" variable, not innervar) should be dropped. Defaults to TRUE.

Value

A function that can be used to split the data accordingly. The actual function signature is similar to the one you can define when creating a fully custom one. For more details see custom_split_funs.

Functions

  • keep_split_levels(): keeps only specified levels (only) in the split variable. If any of the specified levels is not present, an error is returned. reorder = TRUE (the default) orders the split levels according to the order of only.

  • remove_split_levels(): Removes specified levels (excl) from the split variable. Nothing done if not in data.

  • drop_split_levels(): Drops levels that have no representation in the data.

  • drop_and_remove_levels(): Removes specified levels excl and drops all levels that are not in the data.

  • reorder_split_levels(): Reorders split levels following neworder, which needs to be of same size as the levels in data.

  • trim_levels_in_group(): Takes the split groups and removes levels of innervar if not present in those split groups. If you want to specify a filter of possible combinations, please consider using trim_levels_to_map().

Note

The following parameters are also documented here but they are only the default signature of a split function: df (data to be split), spl (split object), and vals = NULL, labels = NULL, trim = FALSE (last three only for internal use). See custom_split_funs for more details and make_split_fun() for a more advanced API.

  split_label = var,
  split_fun = NULL,
  format = NULL,
  na_str = NA_character_,
  nested = TRUE,

  label_pos = "hidden",
  indent_mod = 0L,
  page_by = FALSE,

  section_div = NA_character_
)

Arguments

lyt

(PreDataTableLayouts)
layout object pre-data used for tabulation.

var

(string)
variable name.

labels_var

(string)
name of variable containing labels to be displayed for the values of var.

split_label

(string)
label to be associated with the table generated by the split. Not to be confused with labels assigned to each child (which are based on the data and type of split during tabulation).

split_fun

(function or NULL)
custom splitting function. See custom_split_funs.

format

(string, function, or list)
format associated with this split. Formats can be declared via strings ("xx.x") or function. In cases such as analyze calls, they can be character vectors or lists of functions. See formatters::list_valid_format_labels() for a list of all available format strings.

na_str

(string)
string that should be displayed when the value of x is missing. Defaults to "NA".

nested

(logical)
whether this layout instruction should be applied within the existing layout structure if possible (TRUE, the default) or as a new top-level element (FALSE). Ignored if it would nest a split underneath analyses, which is not allowed.

child_labels

(string)
the display behavior for the labels (i.e. label rows) of the children of this split. Accepts "default", "visible", and "hidden". Defaults to "default" which flags the label row as visible only if the child has 0 content rows.

label_pos

(string)
location where the variable label should be displayed. Accepts "hidden" (default for non-analyze row splits), "visible", "topleft", and "default" (for analyze splits only). For analyze calls, "default" indicates that the variable should be visible if and only if multiple variables are analyzed at the same level of nesting.

indent_mod

(numeric)
modifier for the default indent position for the structure created by this function (subtable, content table, or row) and all of that structure's children. Defaults to 0, which corresponds to the unmodified default behavior.

page_by

(flag)
whether pagination should be forced between different children resulting from this split. An error will occur if the selected split does not contain at least one value that is not NA.

page_prefix

(string)
prefix to be appended with the split value when forcing pagination between the children of a split/table.

section_div

(string)
string which should be repeated as a section divider after each group defined by this split instruction, or NA_character_ (the default) for no section divider.

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

Custom Splitting Function Details

User-defined custom split functions can perform any type of computation on the incoming data provided that they meet the requirements for generating "splits" of the incoming data based on the split object.

Split functions are functions that accept:

df

a data.frame of incoming data to be split.

spl

a Split object. This is largely an internal detail custom functions will not need to worry about, but obj_name(spl), for example, will give the name of the split as it will appear in paths in the resulting table.

vals

any pre-calculated values. If given non-NULL values, the values returned should match these. Should be NULL in most cases and can usually be ignored.

labels

any pre-calculated value labels. Same as above for values.

trim

if TRUE, resulting splits that are empty are removed.

(optional) .spl_context

a data.frame describing previously performed splits which collectively arrived at df.

The function must then output a named list with the following elements:

values

the vector of all values corresponding to the splits of df.

datasplit

a list of data.frames representing the groupings of the actual observations from df.

labels

a character vector giving a string label for each value listed in the values element above.

(optional) extras

if present, extra arguments are to be passed to summary and analysis functions whenever they are executed on the corresponding element of datasplit or a subset thereof.

One way to generate custom splitting functions is to wrap existing split functions and modify either the incoming data before they are called or their outputs.

Note

If var is a factor with empty unobserved levels and labels_var is specified, it must also be a factor with the same number of levels as var. Currently the error that occurs when this is not the case is not very informative, but that will change in the future.

varlabels

(character)
vector of labels for vars.

format

(string, function, or list)
format associated with this split. Formats can be declared via strings ("xx.x") or function. In cases such as analyze calls, they can be character vectors or lists of functions. See formatters::list_valid_format_labels() for a list of all available format strings.

(string)
string that should be displayed when the value of x is missing. Defaults to "NA".

nested

(logical)
whether this layout instruction should be applied within the existing layout structure if possible (TRUE, the default) or as a new top-level element (FALSE). Ignored if it would nest a split underneath analyses, which is not allowed.

child_labels

(string)
the display behavior for the labels (i.e. label rows) of the children of this split. Accepts "default", "visible", and "hidden". Defaults to "default" which flags the label row as visible only if the child has 0 content rows.

indent_mod

(numeric)
modifier for the default indent position for the structure created by this function (subtable, content table, or row) and all of that structure's children. Defaults to 0, which corresponds to the unmodified default behavior.

section_div

(string)
string which should be repeated as a section divider after each group defined by this split instruction, or NA_character_ (the default) for no section divider.

extra_args

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to the tabulation function. Element position in the list corresponds to the children of this split. Named elements in the child-specific lists are ignored if they do not match a formal argument of the tabulation function.

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

See Also

split_rows_by() for typical row splitting, and split_cols_by_multivar() to perform the same type of split on a column basis.

Add a content row of summary counts

Description

Add a content row of summary counts

Usage

  var = "",
  label_fstr = "%s",
  format = "xx (xx.x%)",
  na_str = "-",
  cfun = NULL,
  indent_mod = 0L,
  extra_args = list()
)

Arguments

lyt

(PreDataTableLayouts)
layout object pre-data used for tabulation.

var

(string)
variable name.

label_fstr

(string)
a sprintf style format string. For non-comparison splits, it can contain up to one "\%s" which takes the current split value and generates the row/column label. For comparison-based splits it can contain up to two "\%s".

format

(string, function, or list)
format associated with this split. Formats can be declared via strings ("xx.x") or function. In cases such as analyze calls, they can be character vectors or lists of functions. See formatters::list_valid_format_labels() for a list of all available format strings.

modifier for the default indent position for the structure created by this function (subtable, content table, or row) and all of that structure's children. Defaults to 0, which corresponds to the unmodified default behavior.

extra_args

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to the tabulation function. Element position in the list corresponds to the children of this split. Named elements in the child-specific lists are ignored if they do not match a formal argument of the tabulation function.

Details

If format expects 1 value (i.e. it is specified as a format string and xx appears for two values (i.e. xx appears twice in the format string) or is specified as a function, then both raw and percent of column total counts are calculated. If format is a format string where xx appears only one time, only raw counts are used.

cfun must accept x or df as its first argument. For the df argument cfun will receive the subset data.frame corresponding with the row- and column-splitting for the cell being calculated. Must accept labelstr as the second parameter, which accepts the label of the level of the parent split currently being summarized. Can additionally take any optional argument supported by analysis functions. (see analyze()).

In addition, if complex custom functions are needed, we suggest checking the available additional_fun_params that can be used in cfun.

Value

A PreDataTableLayouts object suitable for passing to further layouting functions, and to build_table().

Table shells

Description

A table shell is a rendering of the table which maintains the structure, but does not display the values, rather displaying the formatting instructions for each cell.

Usage

table_shell(
  tt,
  widths = NULL,
  col_gap = 3,
  hsep = default_hsep(),
  tf_wrap = FALSE,
  max_width = NULL
)

table_shell_str(
  tt,
  widths = NULL,
  col_gap = 3,
  hsep = default_hsep(),
  tf_wrap = FALSE,
  max_width = NULL
)

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

widths

(numeric or NULL)
Proposed widths for the columns of x. The expected length of this numeric vector can be retrieved with ncol(x) + 1 as the column of row names must also be considered.

col_gap

(numeric(1))
space (in characters) between columns.

hsep

(string)
character to repeat to create header/body separator line. If NULL, the object value will be used. If " ", an empty separator will be printed. See default_hsep() for more information.

tf_wrap

(flag)
whether the text for title, subtitles, and footnotes should be wrapped.

max_width

(integer(1), string or NULL)
width that title and footer (including footnotes) materials should be word-wrapped to. If NULL, it is set to the current print width of the session (getOption("width")). If set to "auto", the width of the table (plus any table inset) is used. Parameter is ignored if tf_wrap = FALSE.

Value

  • table_shell returns NULL, as the function is called for the side effect of printing the shell to the console.

  • table_shell_str returns the string representing the table shell.

Top left material

Description

A TableTree object can have top left material which is a sequence of strings which are printed in the area of the table between the column header display and the label of the first row. These functions access and modify that material.

Usage

top_left(obj)

## S4 method for signature 'VTableTree'
top_left(obj)

## S4 method for signature 'InstantiatedColumnInfo'
top_left(obj)

## S4 method for signature 'PreDataTableLayouts'
top_left(obj)

top_left(obj) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'VTableTree'
top_left(obj) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'InstantiatedColumnInfo'
top_left(obj) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'PreDataTableLayouts'
top_left(obj) <- value

Arguments

obj

(ANY)
the object for the accessor to access or modify.

value

(ANY)
the new value.

Value

A character vector representing the top-left material of obj (or obj after modification, in the case of the setter).


Convert an rtable object to a string

Description

Transform a complex object into a string representation ready to be printed or written to a plain-text file.

All objects that are printed to console pass via toString. This function allows fundamental formatting specifications to be applied to final output, like column widths and relative wrapping (width), title and footer wrapping (tf_wrap = TRUE and max_width), and horizontal separator character (e.g. hsep = "+").

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'VTableTree'
toString(
  x,
  widths = NULL,
  col_gap = 3,
  hsep = horizontal_sep(x),
  indent_size = 2,
  tf_wrap = FALSE,
  max_width = NULL,
  fontspec = font_spec(),
  ttype_ok = FALSE
)

Arguments

x

(ANY)
object to be prepared for rendering.

widths

(numeric or NULL)
Proposed widths for the columns of x. The expected length of this numeric vector can be retrieved with ncol(x) + 1 as the column of row names must also be considered.

col_gap

(numeric(1))
space (in characters) between columns.

hsep

(string)
character to repeat to create header/body separator line. If NULL, the object value will be used. If " ", an empty separator will be printed. See default_hsep() for more information.

indent_size

(numeric(1))
number of spaces to use per indent level. Defaults to 2.

tf_wrap

(flag)
whether the text for title, subtitles, and footnotes should be wrapped.

max_width

(integer(1), string or NULL)
width that title and footer (including footnotes) materials should be word-wrapped to. If NULL, it is set to the current print width of the session (getOption("width")). If set to "auto", the width of the table (plus any table inset) is used. Parameter is ignored if tf_wrap = FALSE.

fontspec

(font_spec)
a font_spec object specifying the font information to use for calculating string widths and heights, as returned by font_spec().

ttype_ok

(logical(1))
should truetype (non-monospace) fonts be allowed via fontspec. Defaults to FALSE. This parameter is primarily for internal testing and generally should not be set by end users.

Details

Manual insertion of newlines is not supported when tf_wrap = TRUE and will result in a warning and undefined wrapping behavior. Passing vectors of already split strings remains supported, however in this case each string is word-wrapped separately with the behavior described above.

Value

A string representation of x as it appears when printed.

See Also

wrap_string()

Examples

library(dplyr)

iris2 <- iris %>%
  group_by(Species) %>%
  mutate(group = as.factor(rep_len(c("a", "b"), length.out = n()))) %>%
  ungroup()

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_cols_by("Species") %>%
  split_cols_by("group") %>%
  analyze(c("Sepal.Length", "Petal.Width"), afun = list_wrap_x(summary), format = "xx.xx")

tbl <- build_table(lyt, iris2)

cat(toString(tbl, col_gap = 3))

Retrieve or set the direct children of a tree-style object

Description

Retrieve or set the direct children of a tree-style object

Usage

tree_children(x)

(TableTree or ElementaryTable)
an object with a tree structure.

value

(list)
new list of children.

Value

A list of direct children of x.


Trim levels of another variable from each facet (post-processing split step)

Description

Trim levels of another variable from each facet (post-processing split step)

Usage

trim_levels_in_facets(innervar)

Arguments

innervar

(character)
the variable(s) to trim (remove unobserved levels) independently within each facet.

Value

A function suitable for use in the pre (list) argument of make_split_fun.

See Also

make_split_fun()

Other make_custom_split: add_combo_facet(), drop_facet_levels(), make_split_fun(), make_split_result()


Trim levels to map

Description

This split function constructor creates a split function which trims levels of a variable to reflect restrictions on the possible combinations of two or more variables which the data is split by (along the same axis) within a layout.

Usage

trim_levels_to_map(map = NULL)

Arguments

map

data.frame. A data.frame defining allowed combinations of variables. Any combination at the level of this split not present in the map will be removed from the data, both for the variable being split and those present in the data but not associated with this split or any parents of it.

Details

When splitting occurs, the map is subset to the values of all previously performed splits. The levels of the variable being split are then pruned to only those still present within this subset of the map representing the current hierarchical splitting context.

Splitting is then performed via the keep_split_levels() split function.

Each resulting element of the partition is then further trimmed by pruning values of any remaining variables specified in the map to those values allowed under the combination of the previous and current split.

Value

A function that can be used as a split function.

See Also

trim_levels_in_group().

Examples

map <- data.frame(
  LBCAT = c("CHEMISTRY", "CHEMISTRY", "CHEMISTRY", "IMMUNOLOGY"),
  PARAMCD = c("ALT", "CRP", "CRP", "IGA"),
  ANRIND = c("LOW", "LOW", "HIGH", "HIGH"),
  stringsAsFactors = FALSE
)

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_rows_by("LBCAT") %>%
  split_rows_by("PARAMCD", split_fun = trim_levels_to_map(map = map)) %>%
  analyze("ANRIND")
tbl <- build_table(lyt, ex_adlb)

Trim rows from a populated table without regard for table structure

Description

Trim rows from a populated table without regard for table structure

Usage

trim_rows(tt, criteria = all_zero_or_na)

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

criteria

(function)
function which takes a TableRow object and returns TRUE if that row should be removed. Defaults to all_zero_or_na().

Details

This function will be deprecated in the future in favor of the more elegant and versatile prune_table() function which can perform the same function as trim_rows() but is more powerful as it takes table structure into account.

Value

The table with rows that have only NA or 0 cell values removed.

Note

Visible LabelRows are including in this trimming, which can lead to either all label rows being trimmed or label rows remaining when all data rows have been trimmed, depending on what criteria returns when called on a LabelRow object. To avoid this, use the structurally-aware prune_table() machinery instead.

See Also

prune_table()

Examples

adsl <- ex_adsl
levels(adsl$SEX) <- c(levels(ex_adsl$SEX), "OTHER")

tbl_to_trim <- basic_table() %>%
  analyze("BMRKR1") %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
  split_rows_by("SEX") %>%

path

(character)
a vector path for a position within the structure of a TableTree. Each element represents a subsequent choice amongst the children of the previous choice.

...

unused.

value

  split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
  split_rows_by("SEX") %>%
  split_rows_by("BMRKR2") %>%
  analyze("AGE")

Create a flextable from an rtables table

Description

Principally used for export (export_as_docx()), this function produces a flextable from an rtables table. If theme = NULL, rtables-like style will be used. Otherwise, theme_docx_default() will produce a .docx-friendly table.

Usage

tt_to_flextable(
  tt,
  theme = theme_docx_default(),
  border = flextable::fp_border_default(width = 0.5),
  indent_size = NULL,
  titles_as_header = TRUE,
  bold_titles = TRUE,
  footers_as_text = FALSE,
  counts_in_newline = FALSE,
  paginate = FALSE,
  fontspec = NULL,
  lpp = NULL,
  cpp = NULL,
  ...,
  colwidths = NULL,
  tf_wrap = !is.null(cpp),
  max_width = cpp,
  total_width = 10
)

theme_docx_default(
  font = "Arial",
  font_size = 9,
  cell_margins = c(word_mm_to_pt(1.9), word_mm_to_pt(1.9), 0, 0),
  bold = c("header", "content_rows", "label_rows", "top_left"),
  bold_manual = NULL,
  border = flextable::fp_border_default(width = 0.5)
)

theme_html_default(
  font = "Courier",
  font_size = 9,
  cell_margins = 0.2,
  remove_internal_borders = "label_rows",
  border = flextable::fp_border_default(width = 1, color = "black")
)

word_mm_to_pt(mm)

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

theme

(function or NULL)
A theme function that is designed internally as a function of a flextable object to change its layout and style. If NULL, it will produce a table similar to rtables default. Defaults to theme_docx_default() that is a classic Word output. See details for more information.

border

(flextable::fp_border())
border style. Defaults to flextable::fp_border_default(width = 0.5).

indent_size

(numeric(1))
if NULL, the default indent size of the table (see formatters::matrix_form() indent_size, default is 2) is used. To work with docx, any size is multiplied by 1 mm (2.83 pt) by default.

titles_as_header

(flag)
defaults to TRUE for tt_to_flextable(), so the table is self-contained as it makes additional header rows for formatters::main_title() string and formatters::subtitles() character vector (one per element). FALSE is suggested for export_as_docx(). This adds titles and subtitles as a text paragraph above the table. The same style is applied.

bold_titles

(flag or integer)
defaults to TRUE for tt_to_flextable(), so the titles are bold. If it is one or more integers, those lines will be bold.

footers_as_text

(flag)
defaults to FALSE for tt_to_flextable(), so the table is self-contained with the flextable definition of footnotes. TRUE is used for export_as_docx() to add the footers as a new paragraph after the table. The same style is applied, but with a smaller font.

counts_in_newline

(flag)
defaults to FALSE. In rtables text printing (formatters::toString()), the column counts, i.e. (N=xx), are always on a new line. For docx exports it could be necessary to print it on the same line.

paginate

(flag)
when exporting .docx documents using export_as_docx, we suggest relying on the Microsoft Word pagination system. If TRUE, this option splits tt into different "pages" as multiple flextables. Cooperation between the two mechanisms is not guaranteed. Defaults to FALSE.

fontspec

(font_spec)
a font_spec object specifying the font information to use for calculating string widths and heights, as returned by font_spec().

lpp

(numeric(1))
maximum lines per page including (re)printed header and context rows.

cpp

(numeric(1) or NULL)
width (in characters) of the pages for horizontal pagination. NA (the default) indicates cpp should be inferred from the page size; NULL indicates no horizontal pagination should be done regardless of page size.

...

additional parameters passed to methods or tabulation functions.

colwidths

(numeric)
a vector of column widths for use in vertical pagination.

tf_wrap

(flag)
whether the text for title, subtitles, and footnotes should be wrapped.

max_width

(integer(1), string or NULL)
width that title and footer (including footnotes) materials should be word-wrapped to. If NULL, it is set to the current print width of the session (getOption("width")). If set to "auto", the width of the table (plus any table inset) is used. Parameter is ignored if tf_wrap = FALSE.

total_width

(numeric(1))
total width (in inches) for the resulting flextable(s). Defaults to 10.

font

(string)
defaults to "Arial". If the font is not available, flextable default is used. Please consider consulting the family column from systemfonts::system_fonts().

font_size

(integer(1))
font size. Defaults to 9.

cell_margins

(numeric(1) or numeric(4))
a numeric or a vector of four numbers indicating c("left", "right", "top", "bottom"). It defaults to 0 for top and bottom, and to 0.19 mm in word pt for left and right.

bold

(character)
parts of the table text that should be in bold. Can be any combination of c("header", "content_rows", "label_rows", "top_left"). The first one renders all column names bold (not topleft content). The second and third option use formatters::make_row_df() to render content or/and label rows as bold.

bold_manual

(named list or NULL)
list of index lists. See example for needed structure. Accepted groupings/names are c("header", "body").

remove_internal_borders

(character)
defaults to "label_rows". Remove internal borders between rows. Currently there are no other options and can be turned off by providing any character value.

mm

(numeric(1))
the value in mm to transform to pt.

Details

Themes can also be extended when you need only a minor change from a default style. You can either add your own theme to the theme call (e.g. c(theme_docx_default(), my_theme)) or create a new theme like shown in the examples. Please pay attention to the parameters' inputs as they are relevant for this to work properly. Indeed, it is possible to use some hidden values for building your own theme (hence the need of ...). In particular, tt_to_flextable sends in the following variable: tbl_row_class = make_row_df(tt)$node_class. This is ignored if not used in the theme. See theme_docx_default for an example on own to retrieve these values and how to use them.

Value

A flextable object.

Functions

  • theme_docx_default(): Main theme function for export_as_docx().

  • theme_html_default(): Theme function for html outputs.

  • word_mm_to_pt(): Padding helper functions to transform mm to pt.

Update footnote indices on a built table

Description

Re-indexes footnotes within a built table.

Usage

update_ref_indexing(tt)

Arguments

tt

(TableTree or related class)
a TableTree object representing a populated table.

Details

After adding or removing referential footnotes manually, or after subsetting a table, the reference indexes (i.e. the number associated with specific footnotes) may be incorrect. This function recalculates these based on the full table.

Note

In the future this should not generally need to be called manually.


Validate and assert valid table structure

Description

[Experimental]

A TableTree (rtables-built table) is considered degenerate if:

  1. It contains no subtables or data rows (content rows do not count).

  2. It contains a subtable which is degenerate by the criterion above.

validate_table_struct assesses whether tt has a valid (non-degenerate) structure.

assert_valid_table asserts a table must have a valid structure, and throws an informative error (the default) or warning (if warn_only is TRUE) if the table is degenerate (has invalid structure or contains one or more invalid substructures.

Usage

validate_table_struct(tt)

assert_valid_table(tt, warn_only = FALSE)

Arguments

tt

(TableTree)
a TableTree object.

warn_only

(flag)
whether a warning should be thrown instead of an error. Defaults to FALSE.

Value

  • validate_table_struct returns a logical value indicating valid structure.

  • assert_valid_table is called for its side-effect of throwing an error or warning for degenerate tables.

Note

This function is experimental and the exact text of the warning/error is subject to change in future releases.

See Also

Other table structure validation functions: find_degen_struct(), sanitize_table_struct()

Examples

validate_table_struct(rtable("hahaha"))
## Not run: 
assert_valid_table(rtable("oops"))

## End(Not run)

label_pos

(string)
location where the variable label should be displayed. Accepts "hidden" (default for non-analyze row splits), "visible", "topleft", and "default" (for analyze splits only). For analyze calls, "default" indicates that the variable should be visible if and only if multiple variables are analyzed at the same level of nesting.

string which should be repeated as a section divider after each group defined by this split instruction, or NA_character_ (the default) for no section divider.

show_colcounts

(logical(1))
should column counts be displayed at the level facets created by this split. Defaults to FALSE.

colcount_format

(character(1))
if show_colcounts is TRUE, the format which should be used to display column counts for facets generated by this split. Defaults to "(N=xx)".

ref_group

(character)
value of var to be taken as the ref_group/control to be compared against.

label_fstr

(string)
a sprintf style format string. For non-comparison splits, it can contain up to one "\%s" which takes the current split value and generates the row/column label. For comparison-based splits it can contain up to two "\%s".

Value

List variables required by a pre-data table layout

Description

List variables required by a pre-data table layout

Usage

vars_in_layout(lyt)

## S4 method for signature 'PreDataTableLayouts'
vars_in_layout(lyt)

## S4 method for signature 'PreDataAxisLayout'
vars_in_layout(lyt)

## S4 method for signature 'SplitVector'
vars_in_layout(lyt)

## S4 method for signature 'Split'
vars_in_layout(lyt)

## S4 method for signature 'CompoundSplit'
vars_in_layout(lyt)

## S4 method for signature 'ManualSplit'
vars_in_layout(lyt)

Arguments

lyt

(PreDataTableLayouts)
the layout (or a component thereof).

Details

This will walk the layout declaration and return a vector of the names of the unique variables that are used in any of the following ways:

  • Variable being split on (directly or via cuts)

  • Element of a Multi-variable column split

  • Content variable

  • Value-label variable

Value

A character vector containing the unique variables explicitly used in the layout (see the notes below).

Note

  • This function will not detect dependencies implicit in analysis or summary functions which accept x or df and then rely on the existence of particular variables not being split on/analyzed.

  • The order these variable names appear within the return vector is undefined and should not be relied upon.

Examples

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
  split_cols_by("SEX") %>%
  summarize_row_groups(label_fstr = "Overall (N)") %>%
  split_rows_by("RACE",

Arguments

var

(string)
variable name.

split_label

(string)
label to be associated with the table generated by the split. Not to be confused with labels assigned to each child (which are based on the data and type of split during tabulation).

cuts

(numeric)
cuts to use.

cutlabels

(character or NULL)
labels for the cuts.

cfun

(list, function, or NULL)
tabulation function(s) for creating content rows. Must accept x or df as first parameter. Must accept labelstr as the second argument. Can optionally accept all optional arguments accepted by analysis functions. See analyze().

cformat

(string, function, or list)
format for content rows.

cna_str

(character)
NA string for use with cformat for content table.

split_format

(string, function, or list)
default format associated with the split being created.

split_na_str

(character)
NA string vector for use with split_format.

split_name

(string)
name associated with the split (for pathing, etc.).

child_labels

(string)
the display behavior for the labels (i.e. label rows) of the children of this split. Accepts "default", "visible", and "hidden". Defaults to "default" which flags the label row as visible only if the child has 0 content rows.

extra_args

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to the tabulation function. Element position in the list corresponds to the children of this split. Named elements in the child-specific lists are ignored if they do not match a formal argument of the tabulation function.

indent_mod

(numeric)
modifier for the default indent position for the structure created by this function (subtable, content table, or row) and all of that structure's children. Defaults to 0, which corresponds to the unmodified default behavior.

cindent_mod

(numeric(1))
the indent modifier for the content tables generated by this split.

cvar

(string)
the variable, if any, that the content function should accept. Defaults to NA.

cextra_args

(list)
extra arguments to be passed to the content function when tabulating row group summaries.

label_pos

(string)
location where the variable label should be displayed. Accepts "hidden" (default for non-analyze row splits), "visible", "topleft", and "default" (for analyze splits only). For analyze calls, "default" indicates that the variable should be visible if and only if multiple variables are analyzed at the same level of nesting.

cumulative

(flag)
whether the cuts should be treated as cumulative. Defaults to FALSE.

page_prefix

(string)
prefix to be appended with the split value when forcing pagination between the children of a split/table.

section_div

(string)
string which should be repeated as a section divider after each group defined by this split instruction, or NA_character_ (the default) for no section divider.

show_colcounts

(logical(1))
should column counts be displayed at the level facets created by this split. Defaults to FALSE.

colcount_format

(character(1))
if show_colcounts is TRUE, the format which should be used to display column counts for facets generated by this split. Defaults to "(N=xx)".

cutfun

(function)
function which accepts the full vector of var values and returns cut points to be used (via cut) when splitting data during tabulation.

cutlabelfun

(function)
function which returns either labels for the cuts or NULL when passed the return value of cutfun.

Value

A VarStaticCutSplit, CumulativeCutSplit object for make_static_cut_split, or a VarDynCutSplit object for VarDynCutSplit().


Display an rtable object in the Viewer pane in RStudio or in a browser

Description

The table will be displayed using bootstrap styling.

Usage

Viewer(x, y = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x

(rtable or shiny.tag)
an object of class rtable or shiny.tag (defined in htmltools package).

y

(rtable or shiny.tag)
optional second argument of same type as x.

...

arguments passed to as_html().

Value

Not meaningful. Called for the side effect of opening a browser or viewer pane.

Examples

if (interactive()) {
  sl5 <- factor(iris$Sepal.Length > 5,
    levels = c(TRUE, FALSE),
    labels = c("S.L > 5", "S.L <= 5")
  )

  df <- cbind(iris, sl5 = sl5)

  lyt <- basic_table() %>%
    split_cols_by("sl5") %>%
    analyze("Sepal.Length")

  tbl <- build_table(lyt, df)

  Viewer(tbl)
  Viewer(tbl, tbl)


  tbl2 <- htmltools::tags$div(
    class = "table-responsive",
    as_html(tbl, class_table = "table")
  )

  Viewer(tbl, tbl2)
}
