Rmarkdown output rendering based on condition - r

I am trying to build in an automated way a Word document that will display a list of Youtube video links I want to watch with Youtube Title video as text and the Youtube url as a hyperlink.
I have used Rmarkdown to do that and it works well with a defined number of urls.
But my issue is that I want that Rmarkdown document to work with any number of urls as input of my Links.txt file.
As an example, the content of the Links.txt file could simply be:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDDUMon9SJM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9iAD3GZyfM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHhNWAKw0bY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYUZAF3ePFE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ik4USIChrkY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgEGAaYdABA
Is there a way to use a if condition of some sort to display the exact number of urls each time?
The only post that seems related is this one but I don't really see a working solution.
Here is my current code:
---
title: "Hyperlinks_Word"
output: word_document
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = FALSE)
library('rvest')
library('magrittr')
library('httr')
```
```{r }
url_proxy <- read.table("Links.txt", header = FALSE, sep = "")
url_proxy <- as.character(url_proxy$V1)
link_test <- list()
for(i in 1:length(url_proxy)){
download.file(url_proxy[i], destfile ='scrape_test.html',quiet = TRUE)
url <- read_html('scrape_test.html')
youtube_title <- url%>%html_nodes(xpath = "//title")%>%html_text()
youtube_title <- data.frame(matrix(unlist(youtube_title), nrow=length(youtube_title), byrow=T))
colnames(youtube_title) <- "youtube_title"
link_test[i] <- as.character(youtube_title$youtube_title)
}
```
`r i=1`
[`r link_test[i]`](`r url_proxy[i]`)
`r i=2`
[`r link_test[i]`](`r url_proxy[i]`)
`r i=3`
[`r link_test[i]`](`r url_proxy[i]`)
`r i=4`
[`r link_test[i]`](`r url_proxy[i]`)

One solution is to add the following to the chunk
cat(paste0("[", unlist(link_test), "](", url_proxy,")", collapse="\n\n"))
paste0 takes care of creating the hyperlinks by pasting title and URL together. Using double \n to create sufficient line break.
Use results='asis' in chunk options.
```{r, results='asis'}
url_proxy <- read.table("Links.txt", header = FALSE, sep = "")
url_proxy <- as.character(url_proxy$V1)
link_test <- list()
for(i in 1:length(url_proxy)){
download.file(url_proxy[i], destfile ='scrape_test.html',quiet = TRUE)
url <- read_html('scrape_test.html')
youtube_title <- url%>%html_nodes(xpath = "//title")%>%html_text()
youtube_title <- data.frame(matrix(unlist(youtube_title), nrow=length(youtube_title), byrow=T))
colnames(youtube_title) <- "youtube_title"
link_test[i] <- as.character(youtube_title$youtube_title)
}
cat(paste0("[", unlist(link_test), "](", url_proxy,")", collapse="\n\n"))
```

How to reproducibly include R code in Word documents with Rmarkdown?

I have some R code in a package. I don't want to copy that code, but I want to display it in a pretty way in Word with syntax highlighting without any manual steps.
I looked at styler::style_text in combination of capture.output and that looks nice in the browser, but all the formatting is lost when knitting to Word. Is there some way to preserve it? I'm thinking the best thing would be to have Word native styling but the next best (acceptable) thing would be to somehow render the output to an image and include that. Has anyone done these things to document their code in a report?
show_code = function (fun) {
stopifnot(is.function(fun))
out = capture.output(fun)
n = length(out)
without_bytecode_and_env_lines = -1*c(n-1, n)
code = paste(out[without_bytecode_and_env_lines], collapse = "\n")
styler::style_text(code)
}
I believe you are trying to use syntax highlighting on the output of show_code and to do that, you simply need to use the options comment="" and class.output="r" and syntax highlighting will apply to the output.

title: "Source Code highlighting"
output:
word_document:

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```
## R Markdown
```{r echo=FALSE}
show_code = function (fun) {
stopifnot(is.function(fun))
out = capture.output(fun)
n = length(out)
without_bytecode_and_env_lines = c(n-1, n)
code = paste0(out[-without_bytecode_and_env_lines], collapse = "\n")
styler::style_text(code)
}
```
### The source code for `lm`
```{r comment='', echo=FALSE, class.output = "r"}
show_code(lm)

How to generate a graph html widget for apriori rules visulization within rmarkdown compiler with a for loop with R?

I've been trying to generate a sequence of graph plots inside rmarkdown html compiler...
```{r, include=T, echo=F, fig.height=4, fig.width=10,warning=FALSE}
Here direct is the directory where the files are listed from
"files" is the list of files objects in the transaction form needed for the read.transaction function argument
direct <- "......"
files <- list.files(path = ".....")
for (i in 1:length(files)) {
tr<-read.transactions(file = paste(as.character(direct),"/",files[i],sep = ""),format = "basket",sep = ",")
rules <- apriori(tr, parameter = list(supp=sup, conf=confid))
rules <- sort(rules, by='count', decreasing = TRUE)
plotr <- plot(rules, method = "graph", engine = "htmlwidget")
}
```
I have tried print(plotr), printing just plot(rules,...) and nothing seems to work.
The problem is when I knit the markdown, the plot of the different transaction files doesn't pop up in the html generated by the .Rmd file. Consider that this loop is inside a function that runs inside the chunk.
It would be nice if someone could help me try to solve this problem. If its worth for something, I am trying to generate a report that returns different plot rules based on the apriori algorithm applied to the different files.
If anyone has any idea how this could be solved would be a great help, thank you.
To put multiple htmlWidgets in one RMarkdown chunk you need to create a taglist. Here is an example:
---
title: "Example RMarkdown with multiple arulesViz htmlWidgets in one chunk"
output: html_document
---
```{r}
library(arulesViz)
data(Groceries)
rules <- apriori(Groceries, parameter=list(support=0.001, confidence=0.8))
widget_list <- lapply(1:10, FUN = function(i)
plot(sample(rules, size = 10), method = "graph", engine = "htmlwidget"))
htmltools::tagList(widget_list)
```
You can also use a regular loop to populate the list. More information on this issue can be found at https://github.com/rstudio/DT/issues/67
To hide the messages from library and apriori in the resulting document you can do this:
---
title: "Example RMarkdown with multiple arulesViz htmlWidgets in one chunk"
output: html_document
---
<!-- Hide the messages for library -->
```{r, echo = FALSE, results = FALSE, warning = FALSE, message = FALSE}
library(arulesViz)
```
<!-- verbose = FALSE hides the progress report for apriori -->
```{r}
library(arulesViz)
data(Groceries)
rules <- apriori(Groceries, parameter=list(support=0.001, confidence=0.8),
control = list(verbose = FALSE))
widget_list <- lapply(1:10, FUN = function(i)
plot(sample(rules, size = 10), method = "graph", engine = "htmlwidget"))
htmltools::tagList(widget_list)
```

Run selected chunks from one Rmd in another

I've run my analyses in a source Rmd file and would like to knit a clean version from a final Rmd file using only a few of the chunks from the source. I've seen a few answers with regard to pulling all of the chunks from a source Rmd in Source code from Rmd file within another Rmd and How to source R Markdown file like `source('myfile.r')`?. I share the concern with these posts in that I don't want to port out a separate .R file, which seems to be the only way that read_chunk works.
I think I'm at the point where I can import the source Rmd, but now I'm not sure how to call specific chunks from it in the final Rmd. Here's a reproducible example:
SourceCode.Rmd
---
title: "Source Code"
output:
pdf_document:
latex_engine: xelatex
---
```{r}
# Load libraries
library(knitr) # Create tables
library(kableExtra) # Table formatting
# Create a dataframe
df <- data.frame(x = 1:10,
y = 11:20,
z = 21:30)
```
Some explanatory text
```{r table1}
# Potentially big block of stuff I don't want to have to copy/paste
# But I want it in the final document
kable(df, booktabs=TRUE,
caption="Big long title for whatever") %>%
kable_styling(latex_options=c("striped","HOLD_position")) %>%
column_spec(1, width="5cm") %>%
column_spec(2, width="2cm") %>%
column_spec(3, width="3cm")
```
[Some other text, plus a bunch of other chunks I don't need for anyone to see in the clean version.]
```{r}
save(df, file="Source.Rdata")
```
FinalDoc.Rmd
---
title: "Final Doc"
output:
pdf_document:
latex_engine: xelatex
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
# Load libraries and data
library(knitr) # Create tables
library(kableExtra) # Table formatting
opts_chunk$set(echo = FALSE)
load("Source.Rdata")
```
As far as I can tell, this is likely the best way to load up SourceCode.Rmd (from the first linked source above):
```{r}
options(knitr.duplicate.label = 'allow')
source_rmd2 <- function(file, local = FALSE, ...){
options(knitr.duplicate.label = 'allow')
tempR <- tempfile(tmpdir = ".", fileext = ".R")
on.exit(unlink(tempR))
knitr::purl(file, output=tempR, quiet = TRUE)
envir <- globalenv()
source(tempR, local = envir, ...)
}
source_rmd2("SourceCode.Rmd")
```
At this point, I'm at a loss as to how to call the specific chunk table1 from SourceCode.Rmd. I've tried the following as per instructions here with no success:
```{r table1}
```
```{r}
<<table1>>
```
The first seems to do nothing, and the second throws an unexpected input in "<<" error.
I wrote a function source_rmd_chunks() that sources chunk(s) by label name. See gist.

R Markdown - SparkTables not rendering

I am trying to render a sparktable using Rmarkdown. But the output always comes out in raw html or tex format. This depends on whether I am rendering a PDF or an HTML. Not sure what to do here?
library(sparkTable)
data("AT_Soccer")
content <- list(
function(x) {sum(x)},
function(x) {round(sum(x),2)},
function(x) {round(sum(x), 2)},
newSparkLine(lineWidth = 2,pointWidth = 6),
newSparkBar()
)
names(content) <- c("Points","ShotGoal","GetGoal","GoalDiff","winLose")
vars <- c("points","shotgoal","getgoal","goaldiff","wl")
stab <- newSparkTable(AT_Soccer,content,vars)
export(stab, outputType = "html") ### For HTML R-Markdown files
export(stab, outputType = "tex") #### For PDF R-Markdown files
My output (for html files) looks like:
The pdf output is:
I am trying to get the actual sparktable. I have been able to render the actual table like this:
showSparkTable(stab)
However, that opens the spark table within the Shiny framework. I'm trying to produce multiple rmarkdown documents with spark tables.
I took this example from: https://journal.r-project.org/archive/2015-1/templ-kowarik-meindl.pdf. Page 29.
Solution for HTML
Setting this worked for me. Thanks to Martin. Still stuck on the pdf one though.
knitr::opts_chunk$set(results = 'asis')
After studying the documentation a bit I summarize what I learned about including sparkTables inside Rmd documents:
1. For HTML documents (outputType = 'html'):
Just as I said use the chunk option results = 'asis'.
2. For PDF documents (outputType = 'tex'):
You also need the option above in the case of PDF documents. BUT if you dont use it, you will see the plain LaTeX that is generated by export().
At the very bottom of that output you will find an important hint:
## Information: please do not forget to add the following command before \begin{document} in your tex-fi
##
## \newcommand{\graph}[3]{ \raisebox{-#1mm}{\includegraphics[height=#2em]{#3}}}
So what we have to do here is to
include that line of LateX in our preamble,
add results = 'asis' to the code chunk,
and set the argument infonote of export() to FALSE.
The last point prevents another error that the LaTeX compiler would throw (namely that we already have defined the command \graph).
What follows is a working example for a PDF document:
---
title: "Plotting Plots Under Code"
author: "Martin"
date: "February 1, 2017"
output: pdf_document
header-includes:
- \newcommand{\graph}[3]{ \raisebox{-#1mm}{\includegraphics[height=#2em]{#3}}}
---
```{r setup, echo = F, warning = F, message = F, results = 'asis'}
library(sparkTable)
data('AT_Soccer')
content <- list(
function(x) {sum(x)},
function(x) {round(sum(x), 2)},
function(x) {round(sum(x), 2)},
newSparkLine(lineWidth = 2, pointWidth = 6),
newSparkBar()
)
names(content) <- c('Points', 'ShotGoal', 'GetGoal', 'GoalDiff', 'winLose')
vars <- c('points', 'shotgoal', 'getgoal', 'goaldiff', 'wl')
stab <- newSparkTable(AT_Soccer, content, vars)
export(stab, outputType = 'tex', infonote = F)
```

Rmarkdown Chunk Name from Variable

How can I use a variable as the chunk name? I have a child document which gets called a number of times, and I need to advance the chunk labels in such a manner than I can also cross reference them.
Something like this:
child.Rmd
```{r }
if(!exists('existing')) existing <- 0
existing = existing + 1
myChunk <- sprintf("myChunk-%s",existing)
```
## Analysis Routine `r existing`
```{r myChunk,echo = FALSE}
#DO SOMETHING, LIKE PLOT
```
master.Rmd
# Analysis Routines
Analysis for this can be seen in figures \ref{myChunk-1}, \ref{myChunk-2} and \ref{myChunk-3}
```{r child = 'child.Rmd'}
```
```{r child = 'child.Rmd'}
```
```{r child = 'child.Rmd'}
```
EDIT POTENTIAL SOLUTION
Here is one potential workaround, inspired by SQL injection of all things...
child.Rmd
```{r }
if(!exists('existing')) existing <- 0
existing = existing + 1
myChunk <- sprintf("myChunk-%s",existing)
```
## Analysis Routine `r existing`
```{r myChunk,echo = FALSE,fig.cap=sprintf("The Caption}\\label{%s",myChunk)}
#DO SOMETHING, LIKE PLOT
```
A suggestion to preknit the Rmd file into another Rmd file before knitting&rendering as follows
master.Rmd:
# Analysis Routines
Analysis for this can be seen in figures `r paste(paste0("\\ref{", CHUNK_NAME, 1:NUM_CHUNKS, "}"), collapse=", ")`
###
rmdTxt <- unlist(lapply(1:NUM_CHUNKS, function(n) {
c(paste0("## Analysis Routine ", n),
paste0("```{r ",CHUNK_NAME, n, ", child = 'child.Rmd'}"),
"```")
}))
writeLines(rmdTxt)
###
child.Rmd:
```{r,echo = FALSE}
plot(rnorm(100))
```
To knit & render the Rmd:
devtools::install_github("chinsoon12/PreKnitPostHTMLRender")
library(PreKnitPostHTMLRender) #requires version >= 0.1.1
NUM_CHUNKS <- 5
CHUNK_NAME <- "myChunk-"
preknit_knit_render_postrender("master.Rmd", "test__test.html")
Hope it helps. Cheers!
If you're getting to this level of complexity, I suggest you look at the brew package.
That provides a templating engine where you can dynamically create the Rmd for knitting.
You get to reference R variables in the outer brew environment, and build you dynamic Rmd from there.
Dynamic chunk names are possible with knitr::knit_expand(). Arguments are referenced in the child document, including in the chunk headers, using {{arg_name}}.
So my parent doc contains:
```{r child_include, results = "asis"}
###
# Generate a section for each dataset
###
species <- c("a", "b")
out <- lapply(species, function(sp) knitr::knit_expand("child.Rmd"))
res = knitr::knit_child(text = unlist(out), quiet = TRUE)
cat(res, sep = "\n")
```
And my child doc, which has no YAML header, contains:
# EDA for species {{sp}}
```{r getname-{{sp}}}
paste("The species is", "{{sp}}")
```
See here in the RMarkdown cookbook.
