Overview

About

Maintained by Alanah JonasCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗Declared funders: Atorus Research LLC and GlaxoSmithKline Research & Development Limited

Creates a framework to store and apply display metadata to Analysis Results Datasets (ARDs). The use of 'tfrmt' allows users to define table format and styling without the data, and later apply the format to the data.

Changes in 0.4.0

Improvements

footnote_plan() receives a new argument, order, allowing users to specify the order of footnotes (#605, @alanahjonas95).
Add markdown processing of stub column labels (#617)
Update default for row_grp_plan()/row_grp_structure() to remove trailing post-space rows (#630, @alanahjonas95).
Added extract_data() function to enable data to be easily extracted from a tfrmt into a data frame (#628, @alanahjonas95).
shuffle_card() now automatically strips inherited ARD attributes from objects of class bind_ard to avoid unreliable metadata (#650).
shuffle_card() now prioritises the user-supplied by argument over inherited ARD attributes, giving users control to override attributes and updating the mismatch message to reflect this change (#650).

Bug fixes

Fix bug in tfrmt_sigdig so it correctly passes the 'missing' argument to the body_plan (#621, @alanahjonas95).
Fix bug in page_plan where the max_rows argument was returning an error if a value in the group variable was an empty string (#539, @alanahjonas95).
Fix bug in row_grp_plan where identical labels repeated across different groups were incorrectly forced to the top of the table instead of maintaining their correct order (#634, @alanahjonas95).
Fix bug in as.character.span_structure where the regex was incorrectly capturing content wrapped in parentheses as an R function even though it did not have a valid R function identifier immediately before the (. i.e., "n (%)" incorrectly captured as a function (#643, @LiamHobby).

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

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

install.packages("tfrmt", 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("GSK-Biostatistics/tfrmt")

Development version from GSK-Biostatistics/tfrmt. 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-tfrmt

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-tfrmt

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-tfrmt

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.
