readReport {ReportingTools} | R Documentation

## Read in an Existing Report

### Description

This function is used to read an existing Report (previously created using ReportingTools) into R so that it can modified or computed on.

### Usage

    readReport(reportFile, handlers = fileHandlers(reportFile),
      .toHTML = NULL, .toDF = NULL, .modifyDF = NULL, title)

### Arguments

`reportFile` | A character value pointing to the HTML file containing an existing Report.
`handlers` | The ReportHandlers object(s) to attach to the resulting HTMLReportRef object.
`.toHTML` | The list of .toHTML overrides to attach to the HTMLReportRef object
`.toDF` | The list of .toDF overrides to attach to the HTMLReportRef object
`.modifyDF` | The list of .modifyDF overrides to attach to the HTMLReportRef object
`title` | Title to assign to the new HTMLReportRef object. If not specified this value is inferred from the file.

### Value

An HTMLReportRef object representing the Report.

### Note

Attempting to write the modified report to a new location without updating any report elements involving figures will result in broken image links because image locations are assumed to be relative to the location of the HTML file.
