`teal` application to use scatter plot with various datasets types

This vignette will guide you through the four parts to create a teal application using various types of datasets using the scatter plot module tm_g_scatterplot():

Load libraries
Create data sets
Create an app variable
Run the app

1 - Load libraries

library(teal.modules.general) # used to create the app
library(dplyr) # used to modify data sets
library(ggpmisc)
library(ggExtra)
library(colourpicker)

2 - Create data sets

Inside this app 4 datasets will be used

ADSL A wide data set with subject data
ADRS A long data set with response data for subjects at different time points of the study
ADTTE A long data set with time to event data
ADLB A long data set with lab measurements for each subject

data <- teal_data()
data <- within(data, {
  ADSL <- teal.modules.general::rADSL %>%
    mutate(TRTDUR = round(as.numeric(TRTEDTM - TRTSDTM), 1))
  ADRS <- teal.modules.general::rADRS
  ADTTE <- teal.modules.general::rADTTE
  ADLB <- teal.modules.general::rADLB %>%
    mutate(CHGC = as.factor(case_when(
      CHG < 1 ~ "N",
      CHG > 1 ~ "P",
      TRUE ~ "-"
    )))
})
join_keys(data) <- default_cdisc_join_keys[names(data)]

3 - Create an `app` variable

This is the most important section. We will use the teal::init() function to create an app. The data will be handed over using teal.data::teal_data(). The app itself will be constructed by multiple calls of tm_g_scatterplot() using different combinations of data sets.

# configuration for the single wide datasets
mod1 <- tm_g_scatterplot(
  label = "Single wide dataset",
  x = data_extract_spec(
    dataname = "ADSL",
    select = select_spec(
      label = "Select variable:",
      choices = variable_choices(data[["ADSL"]], c("AGE", "BMRKR1", "BMRKR2")),
      selected = "AGE",
      multiple = FALSE,
      fixed = FALSE
    )

# initialize the app
app <- init(
  data = data,
  modules = modules(
    modules(

      mod1,
      mod2,
      mod3,
      mod4,
      mod5,
      mod6
    )
  )
)

4 - Run the app

A simple shiny::shinyApp() call will let you run the app. Note that app is only displayed when running this code inside an R session.

shinyApp(app$ui, app$server, options = list(height = 1024, width = 1024))
