edc_warn_patient_diffs: Check the validity of the subject ID column

Description

Compare a subject ID vector to the study's reference subject ID (usually something like enrolres$subjid), and warn if any patient is missing or extra.
check_subjid() is the old, deprecated name.

Usage

edc_warn_patient_diffs(
  x,
  ref = getOption("edc_subjid_ref"),
  issue_n = "xx",
  data_name = NULL,
  col_subjid = get_subjid_cols()
)

Value

nothing, called for errors/warnings

Arguments

x

the subject ID vector to check, or a dataframe which ID column will be guessed

ref

the reference for subject ID. Should usually be set through edc_options(edc_subjid_ref=xxx). See example.

issue_n

identifying row number

data_name

the name of the data (for the warning message)

col_subjid

name of the subject ID column if x is a dataframe.

Examples

db = edc_example()
load_database(db)
options(edc_subjid_ref=enrol$subjid)
#usually, you set something like:
#options(edc_subjid_ref=enrolres$subjid)
edc_warn_patient_diffs(data1)
data1 %>% dplyr::filter(subjid>1) %>% edc_warn_patient_diffs(issue_n=NULL)
edc_warn_patient_diffs(c(data1$subjid, 99, 999))
