Installation

CRAN version:

install.packages('ladder')

Latest development version:

install.packages('ladder',
  repos = c('https://igrave.r-universe.dev', 'https://cloud.r-project.org')
)

Basic Usage

library(ladder)

Select a presentation and authorise it for use with ladder.

slides_id <- choose_slides()

Add the table to the presentation

add_to_slides(head(mtcars), slides_id)

For more powerful formatting, use flextable!

# Make a flextable
library(flextable)
ft <- flextable(head(mtcars))

# (Optional) Go wild with formatting
ft <- theme_box(ft)
ft <- bold(ft, bold = TRUE, part = "header")
ft <- bold(ft, part = "header", i = 1, j = 3, bold = FALSE)
ft <- bold(ft, part = "body", j = 2, bold = TRUE)
ft <- bold(ft, part = "body", i = 4, bold = TRUE)
ft <- fontsize(ft, i =1, size = 14)
ft <- color(ft, i = 5:6, j = 1:2, "pink", part = "body")
ft <- hline_top(ft, border = officer::fp_border(color = "green", width = 2), part = "header")
ft <- hline_top(ft, border = officer::fp_border(color = "blue", width = 1, style = "dashed"), part = "body")
ft <- hline(ft, i = 3, j = 3, border = officer::fp_border("yellow", "dotted", 3))
ft <- vline_right(ft, i = 3:4, border = officer::fp_border("black", "dashed", 4), part = "body")
ft <- vline_left(ft, border = officer::fp_border("red", "solid", 2))
ft <- vline_right(ft, border = officer::fp_border("red", "solid", 2))
ft <- vline(ft, i = 2:4, j = 10, border = officer::fp_border("red", "dashed", 2), part = "body")
ft <- valign(ft, i = 3, j = 3, valign = "top", part = "body")
ft <- merge_at(ft, i = 4:5, j = 5:6)
ft <- bg(ft, i = 4, j = 5, bg = "orange")
ft <- highlight(ft, i = 4:5, j = 5:7)
ft <- align(ft, i = 1, j = 6, part="header", align = "left")
ft <- align(ft,  j = 2, part="body", align = "left")
ft <- height(ft, i = 5, height = 2)
ft <- footnote(ft, i = 2, j = 2, value = as_paragraph("This is 6."), ref_symbols = "1")
ft <- add_footer_lines(ft, values = "hello feet")

# Add the table to the presentation
add_to_slides(ft, slides_id)

You can directly preview the slides with view_slide(slides_id) or get a link with get_link(slides_id).

Features

All kinds of formatting including:

Create table from R objects:

Please create an issue if something isn’t working as expected.

Limitations

As far as I know these are limitations of the Slides platform/API and flextable. Let me know if you find something different.

Not possible in Slides

Not supported in flextable (AFAIK)

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
