Create table note text for abbreviated columns

Description

Produces a string with ⁠<col-name>: <col-definition>⁠ format which can be included in a table note providing a more informative definition with the column name. The column definition can be generated from the short name or the label (but note that these could frequently be the same).

Usage

ys_col_note(
  .spec,
  ...,
  .unit = FALSE,
  .title_case = FALSE,
  .sep = ": ",
  .to_string = TRUE,
  .collapse = "; ",
  .width = NULL,
  .type = c("short", "label")
)

Arguments

.spec

a yspec object.

...

passed to ys_select().

.unit

logical; if TRUE, then append the unit surrounded by parens to the column definition.

.title_case

logical; if TRUE then the column definition text is passed through tools::toTitleCase().

.sep

a string to separate column name and column definition; usually a space should be included as the terminal character (see default).

.to_string

logical; if TRUE, then a single string is returned.

.collapse

a string to separate items when .to_string is TRUE; usually a space should be included as the terminal character (see default).

.width

if numeric and .to_string is TRUE, then the result is passed through base::strwrap().

.type

selects if the column definition is generated from calling ys_get_short() or ys_get_label().

Value

A string of length one when .to_string is TRUE or a character vector if .to_string is FALSE.

Examples

spec <- ys_help$spec()

ys_col_note(spec, AST, ALT, SCR, .unit = TRUE)
