Tools for Working with Tibbles

Installation

Install from CRAN with:

## install {tbltools} from CRAN
install.packages("tbltools")

Or install the development version from Github with:

## install remotes pkg if not already
if (!requireNamespace("remotes")) {
  install.packages("remotes")
}

## install from github
remotes::install_github("mkearney/tbltools")

Features

  • Tidyverse-style operability!
    • Uses non-standard evaluation for easy interactive analysis
    • Provides numerous {dplyr}-like wrangling functions:
      • slice_data(), arrange_data() filter_data(), select_data(), mutate_data(), summarise_data(), bind_rows_data(), bind_cols_data(), full_join_data(), left_join_data(), right_join_data()
  • Extremely lightweight!
    • Requires only base R–zero dependencies)
    • Installs/compiles quickly and easily
  • Simple and effective data frame printing!
    • Provides a {tibble}-like printing experience

Use

  • as_tbl_data(): Convert data frames to tibbles
## convert mtcars to tibble and create row_names variable
d <- as_tbl_data(mtcars, row_names = TRUE)
  • tbl_dat_frame(): Create data frames
    • Evaluated within data frame environment, so variables/values can be updated within the tbl_data_frame() call
## create data frame where 2 variable depends on evaluation of 1st variable
tbl_data_frame(
  x = rnorm(20),
  y = rnorm(20) + x
) %>%
  cor()
#>           x         y
#> x 1.0000000 0.7827194
#> y 0.7827194 1.0000000

Slice

  • slice_data(): Select/keep/return row positions
## select rows 1, 3, 5, 25 of data
slice_data(d, c(1, 3, 5, 25))

#>             row_names  mpg cyl disp  hp drat    wt  qsec vs am
