Check input spe

Source: R/check_spe.R

This function checks that the spe object has the appropriate structure. For more details please check the vignette documentation.

check_spe(
  spe,
  variables = c("sum_umi", "sum_gene", "expr_chrM", "expr_chrM_ratio")
)

Arguments

spe

A SpatialExperiment-class object. See fetch_data() for how to download some example objects or read10xVisiumWrapper() to read in spaceranger --count output files and build your own spe object.

variables

A character() vector of variable names expected to be present in colData(spe).

Value

The input object if all checks are passed.
