dmap: Map over the columns of a data frame

Description

dmap() is just like map() but always returns a data frame. In addition, it handles grouped or sliced data frames.

Usage

dmap(.d, .f, ...)
dmap_at(.d, .at, .f, ...)
dmap_if(.d, .p, .f, ...)

Arguments

.d
A data frame.
.f
A function, formula, or atomic vector.

If a function, it is used as is.

If a formula, e.g. ~ .x + 2, it is converted to a function with two arguments, .x or . and .y. This allows you to create very compact anonymous functions with up to two inputs.

If character or integer vector, e.g. "y", it is converted to an extractor function, function(x) x[["y"]]. To index deeply into a nested list, use multiple values; c("x", "y") is equivalent to z[["x"]][["y"]]. You can also set .null to set a default to use instead of NULL for absent components.

...
Additional arguments passed on to .f.
.at
A character vector of names or a numeric vector of positions. Only those elements corresponding to .at will be modified.
.p
A single predicate function, a formula describing such a predicate function, or a logical vector of the same length as .x. Alternatively, if the elements of .x are themselves lists of objects, a string indicating the name of a logical element in the inner lists. Only those elements where .p evaluates to TRUE will be modified.

Details

dmap_at() and dmap_if() recycle length 1 vectors to the group sizes.

Examples

Run this code
# dmap() always returns a data frame:
dmap(mtcars, summary)

# dmap() also supports sliced data frames:
sliced_df <- mtcars[1:5] %>% slice_rows("cyl")
sliced_df %>% dmap(mean)
sliced_df %>% dmap(~ .x / max(.x))

# This is equivalent to the combination of by_slice() and dmap()
# with 'rows' collation of results:
sliced_df %>% by_slice(dmap, mean, .collate = "rows")
