CohortSurvival (version 1.1.0)

tableDoc: Helper for consistent documentation of tables.

Description

Helper for consistent documentation of tables.

Arguments

result

A summarised_result object obtained either from estimateSingleEventSurvival() or estimateCompetingRiskSurvival().

header

A vector specifying the elements to include in the header. The order of elements matters, with the first being the topmost header. Elements in header can be:

  • Any of the columns returned by tableColumns(result) to create a header for these columns.

  • Any other input to create an overall header.

hide

Columns to drop from the output table. By default, result_id and estimate_type are always dropped.

groupColumn

Columns to use as group labels, to see options use tableColumns(result). By default, the name of the new group will be the tidy* column names separated by ";". To specify a custom group name, use a named list such as: list("newGroupName" = c("variable_name", "variable_level")).

*tidy: The tidy format applied to column names replaces "_" with a space and converts to sentence case. Use rename to customise specific column names.

type

Character string specifying the desired output table format. See tableType() for supported table types. If type = NULL, global options (set via setGlobalTableOptions()) will be used if available; otherwise, a default 'gt' table is created.

columnOrder

Character vector establishing the position of the columns in the formatted table. Columns in either header, groupColumn, or hide will be ignored.

style

Defines the visual formatting of the table. This argument can be provided in one of the following ways:

  1. Pre-defined style: Use the name of a built-in style (e.g., "darwin"). See tableStyle() for available options.

  2. YAML file path: Provide the path to an existing .yml file defining a new style.

  3. List of custome R code: Supply a block of custom R code or a named list describing styles for each table section. This code must be specific to the selected table type. If style = NULL, the function will use global options (see setGlobalTableOptions()) or an existing _brand.yml file (if found); otherwise, the default style is applied. For more details, see the Styles vignette on the package website.

.options

A named list with additional formatting options. visOmopResults::tableOptions() shows allowed arguments and their default values.
