Produces the final Docx file

Usage

write_docx(
  report_title,
  author,
  meta_table = get_meta_table(),
  filename = file.path(getOption("cctu_output", default = "Output"), "Reports",
    "Report.docx"),
  table_path = file.path(getOption("cctu_output", default = "Output"), "Core"),
  figure_format = "png",
  figure_path = file.path(getOption("cctu_output", default = "Output"), "Figures"),
  popn_labels = NULL,
  verbose = options()$verbose,
  keep_xml = FALSE
)

Arguments

report_title

text string used to label the report title page

author

text string naming the author

meta_table

a data frame that contains meta information on tables (title, population, number). Defaults is get_meta_table()

filename

text string giving the filename/path to output the word document to

table_path

text string giving the filepath to the tables folder. This is used to directly open table files and copy the content.

figure_format

it only supports png format.

figure_path

text string giving the filepath to the figures folder. This is used to create a reference within the word document. Hence it needs to be a relative (to the output report) path "../Figures". Likely to lead to empty figures in the report if it is changed.

popn_labels

alternative text string giving labels used for the population - might want to include the population size... They must match correctly to unique(meta_table$population), excluding rows with a blank, or no, population given

verbose

logical to print information on changes to the global environment or external files. Defaults to options()$verbose.

keep_xml

a boolean if the compiled XML should be kept, used for debugging purpose.

Value

This function is run for its side-effects: creates an xml document that glues together all the outputs and meta data as per the meta-table argument; a transformation fo this as per the xslt file, the default can be opened as a word document.

Details

suggest that file.path is used to create non default file paths, to cope with OS vaguaries.
