An interactive table that allows you to limit the size of boxes

Description

This function wraps the htmlTable and adds JavaScript code for toggling the amount of text shown in any particular cell.

Usage

interactiveTable(
  x,
  ...,
  txt.maxlen = 20,
  button = getOption("htmlTable.interactiveTable.button", default = FALSE),
  minimized.columns = NULL,
  js.scripts = c()
)

## S3 method for class 'htmlTable'
interactiveTable(
  x,
  ...,
  txt.maxlen = 20,
  button = getOption("htmlTable.interactiveTable.button", default = FALSE),
  minimized.columns = NULL,
  js.scripts = c()
)

## S3 method for class 'interactiveTable'
knit_print(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'interactiveTable'
print(x, useViewer, ...)

Arguments

x	The table to be printed
...	The exact same parameters as htmlTable() uses
txt.maxlen	The maximum length of a text
button	Indicator if the cell should be clickable or if a button should appear with a plus/minus
minimized.columns	Notifies if any particular columns should be collapsed from start
js.scripts	If you want to add your own JavaScript code you can just add it here. All code is merged into one string where each section is wrapped in it's own ⁠<scrip></script>⁠ element.
useViewer	If you are using RStudio there is a viewer thar can render the table within that is envoced if in base::interactive() mode. Set this to FALSE if you want to remove that functionality. You can also force the function to call a specific viewer by setting this to a viewer function, e.g. useViewer = utils::browseURL if you want to override the default RStudio viewer. Another option that does the same is to set the options(viewer=utils::browseURL) and it will default to that particular viewer (this is how RStudio decides on a viewer). Note: If you want to force all output to go through the base::cat() the set ⁠[options][base::options](htmlTable.cat = TRUE)⁠.

Value

An htmlTable with a javascript attribute containing the code that is then printed

short_txt <- gsub("(^[^.]+).*", "\\1", long_txt)

cbind(rep(short_txt, 2),
      rep(long_txt, 2)) %>%
  addHtmlTableStyle(col.rgroup = c("#FFF", "#EEF")) %>%
  interactiveTable(minimized.columns = ncol(.),
                   header = c("Short", "Long"),
                   rnames = c("First", "Second"))
