assert_unit: Asserts That a Parameter is Provided in the Expected Unit

Description

Checks if a parameter (PARAMCD) in a dataset is provided in the expected unit.

Usage

assert_unit(
  dataset,
  param,
  required_unit = NULL,
  get_unit_expr,
  arg_name = rlang::caller_arg(required_unit),
  message = NULL,
  class = "assert_unit",
  call = parent.frame()
)

Value

The function throws an error

• if there is more than one non-missing unit in the dataset or

• if the unit variable differs from the expected unit for any observation of the parameter in the input dataset.

Otherwise, the dataset is returned invisibly.

Arguments

dataset

Dataset to be checked

The variable PARAMCD and those used in get_unit_expr are expected.

param

Parameter code of the parameter to check

required_unit

Expected unit(s)

If the argument is set to NULL, it is checked only whether the unit is unique within the parameter.

Permitted Values: A character vector or NULL

get_unit_expr

Expression used to provide the unit of param

arg_name

string indicating the label/symbol of the object being checked.

message

string passed to cli::cli_abort(message). When NULL, default messaging is used (see examples for default messages). "{arg_name}" can be used in messaging.

class

Subclass of the condition.

call

The execution environment of a currently running function, e.g. call = caller_env(). The corresponding function call is retrieved and mentioned in error messages as the source of the error.

You only need to supply call when throwing a condition from a helper function which wouldn't be relevant to mention in the message.

Can also be NULL or a defused function call to respectively not display any call or hard-code a code to display.
