Produce a data codebook

Make a data codebook that summarizes the contents of a dataset. The result is saved to an R markdown file which can rendered into an easy-to-read codebook in pdf, html or word formats.

makeCodebook(data, vol = "", reportTitle = NULL, file = NULL, ...)

Arguments

data	The dataset to be checked. This dataset should be of class data.frame, tibble or matrix. If it is of classs matrix, it will be converted to a data.frame.
vol	Extra text string or numeric that is appended on the end of the output file name(s). For example, if the dataset is called "myData", no file argument is supplied and vol=2, the output file will be called "codebook_myData2.Rmd"
reportTitle	A text string. If supplied, this will be the printed title of the report. If left unspecified, the title with the name of the supplied dataset.
file	The filename of the outputted rmarkdown (.Rmd) file. If set to NULL (the default), the filename will be the name of data prefixed with "codebook_", if this qualifies as a valid file name (e.g. no special characters allowed). Otherwise, makeCodebook() tries to create a valid filename by substituing illegal characters. Note that a valid file is of type .Rmd, hence all filenames should have a ".Rmd"-suffix.
...	Additional parameters passed to makeDataReport.
