dot-r4vn_resolve_vars: Resolve an R4VN Variable Specification Against Data

In R4VN: Health Data Analysis and Publication-Ready Reporting

Resolve an R4VN Variable Specification Against Data

Description

Internal R4VN helper that expands ., wildcard selectors, and exclusions after the analysis function has obtained its data frame.

Usage

.r4vn_resolve_vars(x, data, default_type = "auto", strict = TRUE)

Arguments

x	An object created by vars().
data	Data frame against which selectors are resolved.
default_type	How unprefixed deferred selectors are typed. "auto" uses categorical for factor/character/logical columns and mean/SD for numeric columns. Other supported values are "categorical", "mean", "median", "full", and "default".
strict	If TRUE, missing exact variables or wildcard selectors that match nothing are errors.

Value

A fully expanded r4vn_vars object containing concrete variable names in the order requested in vars(). Variables expanded from the same wildcard or all-variable selector retain their original order in data.
