Creates a gt object from a dataframe

Creates a flextable object from a dataframe using a delimiter to span the header, and allows to easily customise table style.

Usage

gtTable(
  x,
  delim = "\n",
  style = "default",
  na = "-",
  title = NULL,
  subtitle = NULL,
  caption = NULL,
  groupColumn = NULL,
  groupAsColumn = FALSE,
  groupOrder = NULL,
  colsToMergeRows = NULL
)

Arguments

x

A dataframe.

delim

Delimiter.

style

Named list that specifies how to style the different parts of the gt or flextable table generated. Accepted style entries are: title, subtitle, header, header_name, header_level, column_name, group_label, and body. Alternatively, use "default" to get visOmopResults style, or NULL for gt/flextable style. Keep in mind that styling code is different for gt and flextable. To see the "deafult" style code use tableStyle().

na

How to display missing values.

title

Title of the table, or NULL for no title.

subtitle

Subtitle of the table, or NULL for no subtitle.

caption

Caption for the table, or NULL for no caption. Text in markdown formatting style (e.g. *Your caption here* for caption in italics).

groupColumn

Specifies the columns to use for group labels. By default, the new group name will be a combination of the column names, joined by "_". To assign a custom group name, provide a named list such as: list(newGroupName = c("variable_name", "variable_level"))

groupAsColumn

Whether to display the group labels as a column (TRUE) or rows (FALSE).

groupOrder

Order in which to display group labels.

colsToMergeRows

Names of the columns to merge vertically when consecutive row cells have identical values. Alternatively, use "all_columns" to apply this merging to all columns, or use NULL to indicate no merging.

Value

gt object.

A gt table.
