styleInterval: Conditional CSS styles

In DT: A Wrapper of the JavaScript Library 'DataTables'

Conditional CSS styles

Description

A few helper functions for the formatStyle() function to calculate CSS styles for table cells based on the cell values. Under the hood, they just generate JavaScript and CSS code from the values specified in R.

Usage

styleInterval(cuts, values)

styleEqual(levels, values, default = NULL)

styleValue()

styleColorBar(data, color, angle = 90)

styleRow(rows, values, default = NULL)

Arguments

cuts	a vector of cut points (sorted increasingly)
values	a vector of CSS values
levels	a character vector of data values to be mapped (one-to-one) to CSS values
default	a string or NULL used as the the default CSS value for values other than levels. If NULL, the CSS value of non-matched cells will be left unchanged.
data	a numeric vector whose range will be used for scaling the table data from 0-100 before being represented as color bars. A vector of length 2 is acceptable here for specifying a range possibly wider or narrower than the range of the table data itself.
color	the color of the bars
angle	a number of degrees representing the direction to fill the gradient relative to a horizontal line and the gradient line, going counter-clockwise. For example, 90 fills right to left and -90 fills left to right.
rows	the Row Indexes (starting from 1) that applies the CSS style. It could be an integer vector or a list of integer vectors, whose length must be equal to the length of values, when values is not a scalar.

Details

The function styleInterval() maps intervals to CSS values. Its argument values must be of length n + 1 where n = length(cuts). The right-closed interval ‘⁠(cuts[i - 1], cuts[i]]⁠’ is mapped to ‘⁠values[i]⁠’ for ‘⁠i = 2, 3, ..., n⁠’; ‘⁠values[1]⁠’ is for the interval ‘⁠(-Inf, cuts[1]]⁠’, and ‘⁠values[n + 1]⁠’ is for ‘⁠(cuts[n], +Inf)⁠’. You can think of the order of cuts and values using this diagram: ‘⁠-Inf -> values[1] -> cuts[1] -> values[2] -> cuts[2] -> ... -> values[n] -> cuts[n] -> values[n + 1] -> +Inf⁠’.

The function styleEqual() maps data values to CSS values in the one-to-one manner, i.e. values[i] is used when the table cell value is levels[i].

The function styleColorBar() can be used to draw background color bars behind table cells in a column, and the width of bars is proportional to the column values.

The function styleValue() uses the column value as the CSS values.

The function styleRow() applies the CSS values based on Row Indexes. This only works expected in the client-side processing mode, i.e., server = FALSE.
