teal application to use response plot with various datasets types

This vignette will guide you through the four parts to create a teal application using various types of datasets using the response plot module tm_g_response():

  1. Load libraries
  2. Create data sets
  3. Create an app variable
  4. Run the app

1 - Load libraries

library(teal.modules.general) # used to create the app
library(dplyr) # used to modify data sets

2 - Create data sets

Inside this app 4 datasets will be used

  1. ADSL A wide data set with subject data
  2. ADRS A long data set with response data for subjects at different time points of the study
  3. ADTTE A long data set with time to event data
  4. ADLB A long data set with lab measurements for each subject
data <- teal_data()
data <- within(data, {
  ADSL <- teal.modules.general::rADSL %>%
    mutate(TRTDUR = round(as.numeric(TRTEDTM - TRTSDTM), 1))
  ADRS <- teal.modules.general::rADRS
  ADTTE <- teal.modules.general::rADTTE
  ADLB <- teal.modules.general::rADLB %>%
    mutate(CHGC = as.factor(case_when(
      CHG < 1 ~ "N",
      CHG > 1 ~ "P",
      TRUE ~ "-"
    )))
})
datanames <- c("ADSL", "ADRS", "ADTTE", "ADLB")
datanames(data) <- datanames
join_keys(data) <- default_cdisc_join_keys[datanames]

3 - Create an app variable

This is the most important section. We will use the teal::init() function to create an app. The data will be handed over using teal.data::teal_data(). The app itself will be constructed by multiple calls of tm_g_response() using different combinations of data sets.

# configuration for the single wide dataset
mod1 <- tm_g_response(
  label = "Single wide dataset",
  response = data_extract_spec(

      choices = variable_choices(data[["ADSL"]], c("BMRKR2", "ITTFL", "BEP01FL")),

4 - Run the app

A simple shiny::shinyApp() call will let you run the app. Note that app is only displayed when running this code inside an R session.

shinyApp(app$ui, app$server, options = list(height = 1024, width = 1024))
