In pivot tables, issue with column names containing dots

[dcomtois]

First, let me congratulate you for this outstanding application. I'm really impressed!

I noticed that when creating a Pivot which uses a grouping variable having a . in its name, we get an error message.

For instance, if I create a copy of iris$Species called iris$iris.Species :

iris$iris.species <- iris$Species

... I get the following error message when creating the pivot table using iris.Species as grouping variable:

Error: You specified the columns: iris.species, but the column names of the data are iris_species, Sepal_Length

Most likely has to do with the use of fix_names(), which replaces '.' with '_'.

Thanks for the compliment and the report @dcomtois. I just pushed a fix which will leave the input variable names unchanged but will "fix" other column names as needed

devtools::install_github("radiant-rstats/radiant.data")

Seems to be working fine now @dcomtois. If you have any additional issues please open another. To get the latest version with radiant with the fix (not yet on CRAN) use the commands below:

install.packages("radiant.update", repos = "https://radiant-rstats.github.io/minicran/")
radiant.update::radiant.update()
