Description

Usage

replace_html(tableHTML, pattern, replacement, replace_all = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

tableHTML	A tableHTML object created by the tableHTML function.
pattern	A tableHTML string to be replaced. Regex is allowed.
replacement	A replacement for the matched pattern.
replace_all	TRUE or FALSE. If TRUE gsub is used internally and all the pattern occurrances will be replaced. If FALSE sub is used internally and only the first occurance will be replaced. Defaults to FALSE.

Details

replace_html replaces a tableHTML string with another. The function calls sub and gsub internally (according to the replace_all argument) to do the replacements but in a safe way in order to preserve the class of the tableHTML object. Also, replace_html has been developed so that it can be used with chaining (using the pipe operator %>%). See the examples to understand exactly how.

Value

A tableHTML object.

See Also

gsub or sub

Examples

a <- mtcars %>% 
  tableHTML() %>% 
  add_css_row(css = list('background-color', 'lightblue'), rows = 1)
    
a %>% 
  replace_html('lightblue', 'green')
