My specific issue is with using heatmap.2 with shiny server, but I imagine this question is applicable in more places.
I want to make an argument optional, but the argument itself doesn't have a NULL/FALSE default value from what I can gather. I am trying to do this with the RowSideColors and ColSideColors options from heatmap.2.
It seems that defining the argument and leaving it blank works, as well as creating a missing_arg via rlang. But when you incorporate either of these into an if statement, heatmap.2 doesn't like it.
Any ideas?
library(rlang)
library(gplots)
data(mtcars)
x <- as.matrix(mtcars)
missing <-missing_arg()
row_clusters <- 0
#works
heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors= )
heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors= missing )
#doesn't work
heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors= FALSE)
heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors= NULL)
heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors= NA)
heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors= NaN)
heatmap.2(x, if(row_clusters == 0)RowSideColors= )
heatmap.2(x, if(row_clusters == 0)RowSideColors= missing )
heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors= if(row_clusters == 0){missing}else{})
heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors= if(row_clusters == 0) missing else missing)
etc...
For context, here is what is happening in the background for RowSideColors and ColSideColors in heatmap.2:
if(!missing(ColSideColors)) { ## add middle row to layout
if(!is.character(ColSideColors) || length(ColSideColors) != nc)
stop("'ColSideColors' must be a character vector of length ncol(x)")
I was surprised heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors= if(row_clusters == 0) missing else missing)
didn't work... I think the issue is the missing_arg
is fragile... see the Fragility of the missing argument object section of ?missing_arg
. This works:
rowside_arg <- if(row_clusters == 0) missing_arg() else missing_arg()
heatmap.2(x, RowSideColors = arg)
