sdtmchecks (version 1.0.0)

run_check: Run a single check in sdtmchecks package

Description

This function runs a single check in the sdtmchecks package. It expects a check name, the function that performs the check and some info for the pdf and Excel files. It also expects a T/F value that determines whether to display messages while running. Excluding verbose, the parameters for this function are usually passed to it by filtering the metads to only contain the row corresponding to the check of interest, and then assigning each parameter as the contents of the eponymous column of metads (see example below). This is because this function is mostly run inside of an mcmapply in the run_all_checks_parallel function, which loops over the checks in the rows of metads.

Usage

run_check(
  check,
  fxn_in,
  xls_title,
  pdf_title,
  pdf_subtitle,
  pdf_return,
  verbose
)

Value
