Format and print huxtables using a default method

By default huxtables are printed using print_screen(). In certain cases, for example in Sweave documents, it may be useful to change this. You can do so by setting options("huxtable.print").

# S3 method for class 'huxtable'
print(x, ...)

# S3 method for class 'huxtable'
format(x, ..., output = c("latex", "html", "md", "screen", "rtf"))

Arguments

x

A huxtable.

...

Options passed to other methods.

output

Output format. One of "html", "latex", "md", "screen" or "rtf".

Value

print prints the huxtable and returns NULL invisibly.

format returns a string representation from to_latex(), to_html() etc.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
  # to print LaTeX output:
  options(huxtable.print = print_latex)
} # }

format(jams, output = "screen")
#> [1] "                              Type           Price  \n                              Strawberry      1.90  \n                              Raspberry       2.10  \n                              Plum            1.80  \n\nColumn names: Type, Price\n"
format(jams, output = "md")
