toKable

Convert tabular object to knitr_kable format.

Description

Converts the output of the tabular and related functions to a format consistent with the output of the kable function, so that it can be customized using the kableExtra package.

Usage

toKable(table, format = getKnitrFormat(), booktabs = TRUE, ...)
getKnitrFormat(default = "latex")

Arguments

`table`	An object of class `tabular`.
`format`	The type of `knitr_kable` object desired; currently only `"latex"` and `"html"` are supported.
`booktabs`	Should the table be rendered in `booktabs` style? This only affects LaTeX output.
`...`	Additional arguments to pass to `html.tabular` or `latex.tabular`.
`default`	The default type of output if not running in a knitr document.

Value

An object of class knitr_kable, suitable for passing to functions in the kableExtra package.

Examples

if (requireNamespace("kableExtra")) {
  tab <-  tabular( (Species + 1) ~ (n=1) + Format(digits=2)*
          (Sepal.Length + Sepal.Width)*(mean + sd), data=iris )
  print(kableExtra::kable_styling(toKable(tab), latex_options = "striped"))
  cat("\n")
  toKable(tab, format = "html", options = list(HTMLcaption = "Fisher's iris data"))
}
