rtables 0.6.13

CRAN release: 2025-06-19

New Features

  • All elements of a table’s row structure are now guaranteed to be pathable. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Direct siblings anywhere in a table’s tree (row) structure are now guaranteed to have unique names, with a message if de-duplication (by adding “[i]” to duplicates) was required. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Added parent_name argument to split_rows_by* and analyze* functions to manually control names of (and thus paths to) the subtables created. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Added tt_row_path_exists, which determines whether a path exists within a table’s row structure, optionally restricted to resolving to a particular type of node (row, table, elementary table). #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Added tt_normalize_row_path which resolves a path including the “*” wild card to all existing paths within a table, optionally restricted to resolving to a particular type. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Added documentation of basic pathing concepts (?pathing) to the man page for the above functions.
  • Added new pathing vignette. @gmbecker
  • When make_row_df is called on a VTableTree the returned df now includes new sect_div_from_path and self_section_div columns. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Added section_div_info convenience function which returns portions of make_row_df’s result relevant to section dividers. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Added section_div_at_path and section_div_at_path<- for getting and setting section dividers for substructures within the table. The latter supports “*” wildcards for flexible usage. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Documentation regarding section dividers (?section_div) updated and expanded. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Updated as_result_df to “de-uniqify” names that were altered for pathability when determining group values in the result dataframe/ard. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Warning given when section_div<- with only_sep_sections = TRUE more values than levels of nesting present is now more informative, and occurs regardless of whether only_sep_sections was set manually or automatically (length(value) < nrow(tt)). #1024 by @gmbecker

Bug Fixes

  • section_div<- now works correctly on tables that include top level siblings in their row structure (e.g., when unnested structure is added via nested = FALSE or adding a row splitting after an analyze call). #1024 by @gmbecker
  • section_div<- with only_sep_sections = FALSE is now consistent regarding which value is set when analyze calls occur at different levels of nesting within the corresponding layout, particularly as top-level non-nested siblings. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • section_div<- no longer sets a section div on non-visible label rows when setting a section divider for a content row on the same group. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • section_div<- when given a full-length (nrow(tt)) vector now sets ‘section dividers’ on label rows and content rows correctly when both are visible for the same facet. #1024 by @gmbecker
  • Correctly exported [ methods with signatures involving character and missing. @gmbecker
  • Updated path resolution logic for [ methods to gracefully handle new sibling name de-duplication scheme. @gmbecker

Miscellaneous

  • subset_cols generic and methods are now exported.
  • has_force_pag generic and methods are now exported.

rtables 0.6.12

CRAN release: 2025-04-11

New Features

  • Added stat_string to as_result_df(make_ard = TRUE) to preserve the original string representation of the statistics.
  • Added add_tbl_name_split to as_result_df() to handle split levels constituted by different table names.
  • Analysis and content functions can now accept .alt_df_full which will always be the full alt_counts_df data.frame.
  • Score and pruning functions can now optionally accept additional arguments passed to sort_at_path or prune_table, score functions can also accept decreasing to receive sort order.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed issue with split_cols_by_multivar() when having more than one value. Now as_result_df(make_ard = TRUE) adds a predefined split name for each of the multivar splits.
  • Fixed a bug with tt_at_path() caused by the impossibility to solve multiple branches with identical names.
  • Fixed bug happening when format functions were changing the number of printed values. Now as_result_df(make_ard = TRUE) uses the cell values for stat_strings for these exceptions.
  • section_div argument to analyze no longer sometimes applies dividers between each generated row in some cases. by @gmbecker
  • Fixed bug in [<- causing information to be stripped from other cells if a new rcell is set within a table row.
  • Fixed a bug in as_result_df(make_ard = TRUE) when different columns had different amounts of "" values.
  • Fixed bug in cases where stat_name is character(0) (as_result_df(make_ard = TRUE)).
  • Fixed a bug dropping information from tables when indexed with integer(), i.e. producing an empty table.

Miscellaneous

  • Added handler add_tbl_str_decimals = TRUE to ... into as_result_df(make_ard = TRUE) to add stat_string column for the ARD output.
  • As stat_string are more fragile than default as_result_df(make_ard = TRUE) calculation and are in theory optional, a warning is thrown when errors arise and the stat_string column is not added.
  • Improved error messaging for cases where tt_at_path used a path based on row labels instead of row names.
  • Added more informative error message when keep_split_levels() is used to keep absent values.
  • Improved error message when selecting 0 columns from a table with [.
  • Added safe condition for keep_split_levels() when branch is empty (character(0)).

Synchronize release with GitHub commit sha.

rtables 0.3.6

CRAN release: 2021-01-22

Documentation revisions as requested by CRAN. No change to package code.

rtables 0.3.5

Documentation-text only changes to introduction vignette to pass CRAN’s URL checks. All package, example, test, and vignette code fully identical to that in tagged GitHub release 0.3.4

rtables 0.3.4

Minor changes to the 0.3.3 version in order to submit rtables to CRAN.

rtables 0.3.3

This version completely refactors the rtables package. We do provide a backwards compatibility layer with the rtable, rcell, rrow, rheader, and rtabulate family of functions. However the table data structure and main tabulation framework have changed. We provide extensive documentation in the manuals help(package = "rtables") and vignettes vignette(package = "rtables") of the package.

The changes to rtables have been undertaken to better meet the requirements of creating and analyzing & reporting tables in the context of clinical trials.

rtables 0.3.2.17.9046

  • make_afun now force()s all customization arguments immediately, which prevents problems when called within loop/lapply constructs.

rtables 0.3.2.17.9045

  • Tabulation machinery no longer removes NAs mandatorily in some cases, including multivar column splits
  • analyze_colvars’s inclNAs argument now respected.

rtables 0.3.2.17.9044

  • Fix indent modifier propagation during tabulation
  • Fix indent calculation in make_pagdf
  • Add significant testing to ensure make_pagdf indent calculation remains correct

rtables 0.3.2.17.9043

  • Rework how reference columns are handled so analyses which use .in_ref_col and .ref_group work correctly when custom splitting is used (including the provided combination-levels mechanism)

rtables 0.3.2.17.9042

  • Fix naming/pathing for columns in multivar case (split itself now has default name "multivars")
  • Fix labeling bug when same variable appears multiple times in MultiVarSplit with different associated levels

rtables 0.3.2.17.9041

  • Allow single variable to be used within split_cols_by_multivar
  • Various removal of defunct

rtables 0.3.2.17.9040

  • Fix regression caused by 0.3.2.17.9039 where column split values were displayed by name rather than label.

rtables 0.3.2.17.9039

  • Fix bug in display of column information when column structure is not symmetric, as with recursive cbinds.

rtables 0.3.2.17.9036

  • Fixed bug in row subsetting when table has only content rows.
  • Basic compare_rtables function now works as in previous versions, no awareness of row or column structure.

rtables 0.3.2.17.9036

  • summarize_row_groups can now accept a list of functions for the cfun argument as analyze_colvars does.

rtables 0.3.2.17.9035

  • Fix bug unearthed by change in 0.3.2.17.9034 where cell formats not retained during column subsetting

rtables 0.3.2.17.9034

  • Fix internal value_formats accessor so it operates on CellValues rather than the raw contained values (thus always returning NULL)
  • rrow constructor no longer interprets cell formats a row format when they are the same across all cells. Fixes bug in “correct way” code discussed in #112

rtables 0.3.2.17.9033

  • Interpret .formats in in_rows as cell formats rather than row formats.

rtables 0.3.2.17.9031

  • cbind_rtables can now take more than 2 tables.

rtables 0.3.2.17.9029

  • Fix issue underlying spurious length-mismatch warning in some cases when using analyze_colvars

rtables 0.3.2.17.9028

  • analyze_colvars now takes and adheres to inclNAs argument

rtables 0.3.2.17.9027

  • issues with no news:

rtables 0.1.7

  • added format xx.xx (xx.xx - xx.xx) and x.xxxx | (<0.0001)

rtables 0.1.6

  • Minor changes.

rtables 0.1.5

  • Changed testing approach to fit internal pipelines.

rtables 0.1.4

  • Replaced dots to underscore in class checking functions.

rtables 0.1.3

  • col_by in rtabulate now accepts matrices:
    • col_by_to_matrix, col_by_to_factor, by_factor_to_matrix.
    • by_add_total, by_all, by_combine, by_quartile, by_compare_subset, by_hierarchical, by_drop_empty_cols.
  • New utility functions to deal with variable labels:
    • label, var_labels<-, var_labels, var_labels_remove, var_relabel, with_label.
  • Other new functions:
    • cbing_rtables.
    • empty_rtables, is_empty_rtable, is_non_empty_rtable, is_rtable.
    • header_indent, header_indent<-, header_row.names, header_row.names<-.
    • insert_rrow.

rtables 0.1.2

  • rbind.rtable now supports binding rtables with rows, e.g. rbind(tbl1, rrow(), tbl2) or rbind(tbl1, rrow("row name"), tbl2).
  • rbindl_rtables supports NULL objects in the list (except for the first element).
  • Add indent function.
  • header_add_N deals gracefully with NULL objects.

rtables 0.1.1

  • rtablulate family of functions do not support the row_*_data_args arguments anymore. Instead, the col_wise_args argument is introduced.
  • Functions order_rrows, sort_rrows, order_rtables, and sort_rtables are introduced.
  • Prevent rtables from being unlisted with unlist.rtables.

rtables 0.1.0.6

  • Viewer now also accepts objects of class shiny.tag (defined in package htmltools).
  • as.html accepts class.table, class.tr, class.th, and class.td as an argument.

rtables 0.1.0.5

  • Added sprintf_format for formatting rcells (thanks to Doug Kelkhoff for the suggestion).
  • Added "(N=xx)" and ">999.9" format labels.
  • rtabulate has now an argument col_N and the function col_N().

rtables 0.1.0

  • Version 0.1.0 is a major re-design with lots of internal refactoring and the following API changes:
    • Redesign: rtable has now header argument instead of col.names. A header can be created with rheader and is a collection of rrows. If header is set to c("A", "B") then rtable will create the rheader with a single rrow and by setting row.name to NULL.
    • header and header<- function added.
    • Renamed get_rcell_formats to list_rcell_format_labels.
    • If rcell format is NULL then the cell content will be converted to a string with paste(as.character(x), collapse = ', ').
    • Accessor [i,] works now to subset a table.
    • rbind method for rtables.
    • row.names<-.rtable method.
    • rtabulate added for creating tables.
    • indented_row.names function added.
