Overview

About

Maintained by Tim BarnettCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

Supports the process of applying a cut to Standard Data Tabulation Model (SDTM), as part of the analysis of specific points in time of the data, normally as part of investigation into clinical trials. The functions support different approaches of cutting to the different domains of SDTM normally observed.

Changes in 0.2.4

Updates of Existing Functions

create_dcut updated to allow for cut_date in DDMMMYYYY format
create_dcut updated to fix a bug when the optional filter argument is left as NULL
apply_cut updated to set reverted Death variables DTHFL and DTHDTC to NA rather than ""
date_cut, pt_cut, special_dm_cut, apply_cut and read_out updated to handle empty SDTM datasets

Various

Updates suggested packages in NAMESPACE file
Changed some explicit returns to implicit in functions

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("datacutr", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("pharmaverse/datacutr")

Development version from pharmaverse/datacutr. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-datacutr

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-datacutr

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-datacutr

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
