# Overview
The goal of `kableExtra` is to help you build common complex tables and manipulate table styles. It imports the pipe `%>%` symbol from `magrittr` and verbalize all the functions, so basically you can add "layers" to a kable output in a way that is similar with `ggplot2` and `plotly`.
+For users who are not very familiar with the pipe operator `%>%` in R, it is the R version of the [fluent interface](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_interface). The ides is to pass the result along the chain for a more literal coding experience. Basically when we say `A %>% B`, technically it means sending the results of A to B as B's first argument.

-When you are using `kable()`, if you don't specify `format`, by default it will generate a markdown table and let pandoc handle the conversion from markdown to HTML/PDF. This is the most favorable approach to render most simple tables as it is format independent. If you switch from HTML to pdf, you basically don't need to change anything in your code. However, markdown doesn't support complex table. For example, if you want to have a double-row header table, markdown just cannot provide you the functionality you need. As a result, when you have such a need, you should **define `format` in `kable()`** as either "html" or "latex". *You can also define a global option at the beginning using `options(knitr.table.format = "html")` so you don't repeat the step everytime.*
+> **Key Update:** In the latest version of this package (1.2+), we provide a wrapper funciton `kbl` to the original `kable` function with detailed documentation of all the hidden html/latex options. It also does auto-formatting check in every function call instead of relying on the global environement variable. As a result, it also solves an issue for multi-format R Markdown documents. I encourage you start to use the new `kbl` function for all its convenience but the support for the original `kable` function is still there. In this doc, we will use `kbl` instead of `kable`.

I'm still including the explanation above here in this vignette so you can understand what is going on behind the scene. Note that this is only an global option.

## Basic HTML table
Basic HTML output of `kable` looks very crude. To the end, it's just a plain HTML table without any love from css.
```{r}

## Bootstrap theme
When used on a HTML table, `kable_styling()` will automatically apply twitter bootstrap theme to the table. Now it should looks the same as the original pandoc output (the one when you don't specify `format` in `kable()`) but this time, you are controlling it.

+## Alternative themes
+`kableExtra` also offers a few in-house alternative HTML table themes other than the default bootstrap theme. Right now there are 6 of them: `kable_paper`, `kable_classic`, `kable_classic_2`, `kable_minimal`, `kable_material` and `kable_material_dark`. These functions are alternatives to `kable_styling`, which means that you can specify any additional formatting options in `kable_styling` in these functions too. The only difference is that `bootstrap_options` (as discussed in the next section) is replaced with `lightable_options` at the same location with only two choices `striped` and `hover` available.

# Table Styles
`kable_styling` offers a few other ways to customize the look of a HTML table.
@@ -75,39 +123,39 @@
For example, to add striped lines (alternative row colors) to your table and you want to highlight the hovered row, you can simply type:
```{r}
-kable(dt) %>%
+kbl(dt) %>%
kable_styling(bootstrap_options = c("striped", "hover"))
```
The option `condensed` can also be handy in many cases when you don't want your table to be too large. It has slightly shorter row height.
```{r}
-kable(dt) %>%
+kbl(dt) %>%
kable_styling(bootstrap_options = c("striped", "hover", "condensed"))
```
Tables with option `responsive` looks the same with others on a large screen. However, on a small screen like phone, they are horizontally scrollable. Please resize your window to see the result.
```{r}
-kable(dt) %>%
+kbl(dt) %>%
kable_styling(bootstrap_options = c("striped", "hover", "condensed", "responsive"))
```
## Full width?
By default, a bootstrap table takes 100% of the width. It is supposed to use together with its grid system to scale the table properly. However, when you are writing a rmarkdown document, you probably don't want to write your own css/or grid. For some small tables with only few columns, a page wide table looks awful. To make it easier, you can specify whether you want the table to have `full_width` or not in `kable_styling`. By default, `full_width` is set to be `TRUE` for HTML tables (note that for LaTeX, the default is `FALSE` since I don't want to change the "common" looks unless you specified it.)
```{r}
-kable(dt) %>%
- kable_styling(bootstrap_options = "striped", full_width = F)
+kbl(dt) %>%
+ kable_paper(bootstrap_options = "striped", full_width = F)
```
## Position
Table Position only matters when the table doesn't have `full_width`. You can choose to align the table to `center`, `left` or `right` side of the page
```{r}
-kable(dt) %>%
+kbl(dt) %>%
kable_styling(bootstrap_options = "striped", full_width = F, position = "left")

Becides these three common options, you can also wrap text around the table using the `float-left` or `float-right` options.

Comparing with figuring out a list of 2 dimentional index for targeted cells, this design is way easier to learn and use and it fits perfectly well with `dplyr`'s `mutate` and `summarize` functions. With this design, there are two things to be noted:
* Since `cell_spec` generates raw `HTML` or `LaTeX` code, make sure you remember to put `escape = FALSE` in `kable`. At the same time, you have to escape special symbols including `%` manually by yourself
* `cell_spec` needs a way to know whether you want `html` or `latex`. You can specify it locally in function or globally via the `options(knitr.table.format = "latex")` method as suggested at the beginning. If you don't provide anything, this function will output as HTML by default.
Currently, `cell_spec` supports features including bold, italic, monospace, text color, background color, align, font size & rotation angle. More features may be added in the future. Please see function documentations as reference.

## Text Specification
If you check the results of `cell_spec`, you will find that this function does nothing more than wrapping the text with appropriate HTML/LaTeX formatting syntax. The result of this function is just a vector of character strings. As a result, when you are writing a `rmarkdown` document or write some text in shiny apps, if you need extra markups other than **bold** or *italic*, you may use this function to `r text_spec("color", color = "red")`, `r text_spec("change font size ", font_size = 16)` or `r text_spec("rotate", angle = 30)` your text.

Tables with multi-row headers can be very useful to demonstrate grouped data. To do that, you can pipe your kable object into `add_header_above()`. The header variable is supposed to be a named character with the names as new column names and values as column span. For your convenience, if column span equals to 1, you can ignore the `=1` part so the function below can be written as `add_header_above(c(" ", "Group 1" = 2, "Group 2" = 2, "Group 3" = 2)).

There are four notation systems in `footnote`, namely `general`, `number`, `alphabet` and `symbol`.

You can also specify title for each category by using the `***_title` arguments. Default value for `general_title` is "Note: " and "" for the rest three. You can also change the order using `footnote_order`. You can even display footnote as chunk texts (default is as a list) using `footnote_as_chunk`. The font format of the titles are controlled by `title_format` with options including "italic" (default), "bold" and "underline".

## Save HTML table directly
If you need to save those HTML tables but you don't want to generate them through rmarkdown, you can try to use the `save_kable()` function. You can choose whether to let those HTML files be self contained (default is yes). Self contained files packed CSS into the HTML file so they are quite large when there are many.
```{r, eval=FALSE}

+## Use it with sparkline
+Well, this is not a feature but rather a documentation of how to use the `sparkline` package together with this package. The easiest way is sort of a hack. You can call `sparkline::sparkline(0)` somewhere on your document where no one would mind so its dependencies could be loaded without any hurdles. Then you use `sparkline::spk_chr()` to generate the text. For a working example, see: [Chinese names in US babynames](https://cranky-chandrasekhar-cfefcd.netlify.app/)

# From other packages
Since the structure of `kable` is relatively simple, it shouldn't be too difficult to convert HTML or LaTeX tables generated by other packages to a `kable` object and then use `kableExtra` to modify the outputs. If you are a package author, feel free to reach out to me and we can collaborate.
