Intro
We are currently looking at reworking the list of functions to make them easier to use, and to find which ones you would find useful. If there is interest, we could add tags to functions so that you only load functions with certain tags like "beginners", "aggregate only" etc. To register interest in this, please email datashield@newcastle.ac.uk .
A similar (albeit unsorted) list is kept at https://cran.datashield.org/web/ , which is updated as soon as any new version of DataSHIELD gets published.
Key: pink = new to this release
Data Preparation functions (generally of type "Assign")
Coercing functions
Number manipulation functions
Data Frame/List manipulation functions
Factor manipulation functions
Administrative functions
Data Analysis functions (generally of type "Aggregate")
Data structure queries
Summary Statistics Functions
ds.skewness ← new
ds.kurtosis ← new
Matrices Functions
Table functions
Survival Analysis functions
Distribution Generating functions
Modelling Functions
Data Presentation functions
Plotting functions
Deprecated functions
These functions in the left hand column of the below tableshouldn't be used, as a rule. There is information contained within the help for each of them detailing which function you should use instead, that does all of what the deprecated function did do, and more!
| Deprecated function | Replacement function |
|---|---|
ds.subset | |
ds.subsetByClass | |
ds.table1D | |
ds.table2D |
Generating the list of available functions yourself
| Tip | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
can now be used to generate PDF version of the R manual pages. |
Once you have loaded the DataSHIELD packages, you can find a list of all functions within a DataSHIELD package using the ls command in R/RStudio.
| Code Block |
|---|
ls("package:name")
|
The output below is for the dsBaseClient but can be substituted for any DataSHIELD package:
