sheet_resize: Change the size of a (work)sheet

Description

Changes the number of rows and/or columns in a (work)sheet.

Usage

sheet_resize(ss, sheet = NULL, nrow = NULL, ncol = NULL, exact = FALSE)

Arguments

ss

Something that identifies a Google Sheet:

• its file id as a string or drive_id

• a URL from which we can recover the id

• a one-row dribble, which is how googledrive represents Drive files

• an instance of googlesheets4_spreadsheet, which is what gs4_get() returns

Processed through as_sheets_id().

sheet

Sheet to resize, in the sense of "worksheet" or "tab". You can identify a sheet by name, with a string, or by position, with a number.

nrow, ncol

Desired number of rows or columns, respectively. The default of NULL means to leave unchanged.

exact

Logical, indicating whether to impose nrow and ncol exactly or to treat them as lower bounds. If exact = FALSE, sheet_resize() can only add cells. If exact = TRUE, cells can be deleted and their contents are lost.

Value

The input ss, as an instance of sheets_id

Examples

# NOT RUN {
if (gs4_has_token()) {
  # create a Sheet with the default initial worksheet
  (ss <- gs4_create("sheet-resize-demo"))

  # see (work)sheet dims
  sheet_properties(ss)

  # no resize occurs
  sheet_resize(ss, nrow = 2, ncol = 6)

  # reduce sheet size
  sheet_resize(ss, nrow = 5, ncol = 7, exact = TRUE)

  # add rows
  sheet_resize(ss, nrow = 7)

  # add columns
  sheet_resize(ss, ncol = 10)

  # add rows and columns
  sheet_resize(ss, nrow = 9, ncol = 12)

  # re-inspect (work)sheet dims
  sheet_properties(ss)

  # clean up
  gs4_find("sheet-resize-demo") %>%
    googledrive::drive_trash()
}
# }
