The following instructions work in the DataSHIELD test environment only. |
write.csv
or write.table
R functions to write tables to file#output to the R console > ds.table2D(x='D$DIS_DIAB', y='D$GENDER') #prints to the current working directory into a file called test_table.csv > write.csv(x=ds.table2D(x='D$DIS_DIAB', y='D$GENDER'), file = "test_table.csv") |
In R it is possible to print sequential images on sequential pages.
png()
, pdf()
or postscript()
needs to be opened.#png example png(filename = "image_name.png", width = 900, height = 700, units = "px", pointsize = 12, bg = "white", type = "cairo") ds.histogram(x='D$LAB_HDL') dev.off() |
ds.histogram
commands onto seperate pages. Each line is output to a seperate page in the pdf.# a pdf example pdf (file="image_name.pdf") ds.histogram(x='D$LAB_HDL') ds.histogram(x='D$LAB_HDL', type='split') dev.off() |
# a postscript example postscript(file= "image_name.ps", paper="special", width = 9, height = 7, onefile = TRUE, horizontal=FALSE) ds.histogram(x='D$LAB_HDL') ds.histogram(x='D$LAB_HDL', type='split') dev.off() |
In some cases the non-disclosive data used to create an image may be required, this can be printed to file using the capture.output
R function:
# print to file the non-disclosive data that comprises a histogram out<-capture.output(ds.histogram(x='D$LAB_HDL')) cat(out,file="name.txt",sep="\n",append=TRUE) |
All arguments to customise the above functions can be found in their respective function manual pages. |
