teal.data
June 29, 2026 ยท View on GitHub
This package is used to create the data needed for teal applications. This data can be:
- Independent data frames
- CDISC data (for clinical trial reporting)
- Relational data
MultiAssayExperimentobjects
This package provides:
- the mechanism for pulling data from existing systems
- the ability to mutate (i.e. pre-process) the data
- record the operations used to create the data to enable reproducibility
Installation
install.packages('teal.data')
Alternatively, you might want to use the development version.
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("insightsengineering/teal.data")
Usage
To understand how to use this package, please refer to the Introduction to teal.data article, which provides multiple examples of code implementation.
Below is the showcase of the example usage.
library(teal.data)
# quick start for clinical trial data
my_data <- cdisc_data(
ADSL = example_cdisc_data("ADSL"),
ADTTE = example_cdisc_data("ADTTE"),
code = quote({
ADSL <- example_cdisc_data("ADSL")
ADTTE <- example_cdisc_data("ADTTE")
})
)
# or
my_data <- within(teal_data(), {
ADSL <- example_cdisc_data("ADSL")
ADTTE <- example_cdisc_data("ADTTE")
})
datanames <- c("ADSL", "ADTTE")
datanames(my_data) <- datanames
join_keys(my_data) <- default_cdisc_join_keys[datanames]
# quick start for general data
my_general_data <- within(teal_data(), {
iris <- iris
mtcars <- mtcars
})
# reproducibility check
data <- teal_data(iris = iris, code = "iris <- mtcars")
verify(data)
#> Error: Code verification failed.
#> Object(s) recreated with code that have different structure in data:
#> โข iris
# code extraction
iris2_data <- within(teal_data(), {iris2 <- iris[1:6, ]})
get_code(iris2_data)
#> "iris2 <- iris[1:6, ]"
