A workbook object

sheet

A worksheet name or index. In wb_remove_filter(), you may supply a vector of worksheets.

cols

columns to add filter to.

Details

Adds filters to worksheet columns, same as with_filter = TRUE in wb_add_data() wb_add_data_table() automatically adds filters to first row of a table.

NOTE Can only have a single filter per worksheet unless using tables.

Examples

wb <- wb_workbook()
wb$add_worksheet("Sheet 1")
wb$add_worksheet("Sheet 2")
wb$add_worksheet("Sheet 3")

wb$add_data(1, iris)
wb$add_filter(1, row = 1, cols = seq_along(iris))

## Equivalently
wb$add_data(2, x = iris, with_filter = TRUE)

## Similarly
wb$add_data_table(3, iris)
wb <- wb_workbook()
wb$add_worksheet("Sheet 1")
wb$add_worksheet("Sheet 2")
wb$add_worksheet("Sheet 3")

wb$add_data(1, iris)
wb_add_filter(wb, 1, row = 1, cols = seq_along(iris))

## Equivalently
wb$add_data(2, x = iris, with_filter = TRUE)

## Similarly
wb$add_data_table(3, iris)

## remove filters
wb_remove_filter(wb, 1:2) ## remove filters
wb_remove_filter(wb, 3) ## Does not affect tables!
