One of the main features of the tbl_df class is the printing:
Tibbles only print as many rows and columns as fit on one screen, supplemented by a summary of the remaining rows and columns.
Tibble reveals the type of each column, which keeps the user informed about whether a variable is, e.g.,
<chr>or<fct>(character versus factor). Seevignette("types")for an overview of common type abbreviations.
Printing can be tweaked for a one-off call by calling print() explicitly
and setting arguments like n and width. More persistent control is
available by setting the options described in pillar::pillar_options.
See also vignette("digits") for a comparison to base options,
and vignette("numbers") that showcases num() and char()
for creating columns with custom formatting options.
As of tibble 3.1.0, printing is handled entirely by the pillar package.
If you implement a package that extends tibble,
the printed output can be customized in various ways.
See vignette("extending", package = "pillar") for details,
and pillar::pillar_options for options that control the display in the console.
Arguments
- x
Object to format or print.
- width
Width of text output to generate. This defaults to
NULL, which means use thewidthoption.- ...
Passed on to
pillar::tbl_format_setup().- n
Number of rows to show. If
NULL, the default, will print all rows if less than theprint_maxoption. Otherwise, will print as many rows as specified by theprint_minoption.- max_extra_cols
Number of extra columns to print abbreviated information for, if the width is too small for the entire tibble. If
NULL, themax_extra_colsoption is used. The previously definedn_extraargument is soft-deprecated.Maximum number of footer lines. If
NULL, themax_footer_linesoption is used.
