How to Create Summary Visualizations

This article describes how to use a built-in QScript to create a chart for every question in your dataset.  

Example

QScript

This code is included for reference only and is not necessary to run the automation in Q. 

// also imports QScript Utility Functions for inDisplayr
includeWeb("QScript Selection Functions");
includeWeb("QScript Functions to Generate Outputs");

const is_displayr = inDisplayr();
const data_file = requestOneDataFileFromProject(true);
// From here a user will have selected a file or only have one possible file in the document.

const on_page = onPages("summary visualizations");

function entirelyMissing(question) {
    return question.variables.every((v) => {
        let vattr = v.valueAttributes;
        return v.rawValues.filter(x => !Number.isNaN(x) &&
            !vattr.getIsMissingData(x)).length === 0;
    });
}

let questions = data_file.questions.filter(q => !q.isHidden &&
    q.isValid &&
    q.questionType.indexOf("Text") == -1 &&
    !entirelyMissing(q)).map(q => ({
    primary: q,
    secondary: "SUMMARY"
}));
let page_names = questions.map(q => q.primary.name);
let report = createReport("Summary Visualizations", questions, page_names, null, null, [], false, Infinity, false, true, !on_page);

if (report.subItems.length == 0)
    log('No visualizations were created. All variables in the data file are either text, ' +
        ' hidden, or contain entirely missing values.');
else if (!is_displayr)
    conditionallyEmptyLog('A group of summary visualizations has been added to the project.');
