Convert objects to huxtables

Description

as_huxtable or as_hux converts an object to a huxtable. Conversion methods exist for data frames and tibbles, tables, ftables, matrices and (most) vectors.

Usage

as_huxtable(x, ...)

as_hux(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
as_huxtable(
  x,
  add_colnames = getOption("huxtable.add_colnames", TRUE),
  add_rownames = FALSE,
  autoformat = getOption("huxtable.autoformat", TRUE),
  ...
)

## S3 method for class 'grouped_df'
as_huxtable(x, ..., groups_to_headers = FALSE)

is_huxtable(x)

is_hux(x)

Arguments

x	Object to convert.
...	Arguments passed on to huxtable().
add_colnames	If TRUE, add a first row of column names to the huxtable.
add_rownames	If TRUE or a character string, add a first column of row names to the huxtable. The string gives the name for the new column (or "rownames" for TRUE).
autoformat	If TRUE, automatically format columns by type. See below.
groups_to_headers	Logical. Convert groups to header rows?

Details

is_hux[table] tests if an object is a huxtable.

For table objects, add_colnames and add_rownames are TRUE by default. For matrix objects, they are FALSE. Other classes use options("huxtable.add_colnames"), which is TRUE by default; add_rownames is FALSE.

For dplyr::grouped_df() objects, groups will be converted to header rows if groups_to_headers is TRUE.

Value

An object of class "huxtable".

Examples

dfr <- data.frame(
        a = 1:5,
        b = letters[1:5],
        stringsAsFactors = FALSE
      )
as_huxtable(dfr)
mx <- matrix(letters[1:12], 4, 3)
as_huxtable(mx, add_colnames = FALSE)
library(stats)
tbl <- table(
        Wool    = warpbreaks$wool,
        Tension = warpbreaks$tension
      )
as_huxtable(tbl) # adds row and column names by default

# adding rownames:
as_hux(mtcars[1:3,], add_colnames = TRUE,
      add_rownames = "Car")

if (requireNamespace("dplyr")) {
  iris_grp <- dplyr::group_by(iris[c(1:4, 51:54, 101:104), ], Species)
  as_hux(iris_grp, groups_to_headers = TRUE)
}
