Create a pretty table of information — info

These functions help you create a readable table of information, intended to be used to populate a coversheet in an Excel report.

info_table(..., .pretty_names = TRUE)

default_info_table(
  data_included = "",
  data_exported_by = get_user(),
  exported_on = strftime(Sys.time(), "%Y-%m-%d"),
  .pretty_names = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

...	Named vectors. The names give the single value that will appear in the left-hand column, while the values will appear on separate rows in the right-hand column.
.pretty_names	If `TRUE` then some standardisation is performed on the values in the left-hand column. This includes the capitalisation of the first letter and the replacement of underscores with spaces.
data_included	The names of the data sheets included in the report
data_exported_by	The name of the reporter
exported_on	The date of the report

Value

A data.frame
