addCellMetadata(
gobject,
new_metadata,
vector_name = NULL,
by_column = FALSE,
column_cell_ID = NULL
)
giotto object
new cell metadata to use (data.table, data.frame, ...)
(optional) custom name if you provide a single vector
merge metadata based on cell_ID column in pDataDT (default = FALSE)
column name of new metadata to use if by_column = TRUE
giotto object
You can add additional cell metadata in two manners:
1. Provide a data.table or data.frame with cell annotations in the same order as the cell_ID column in pDataDT(gobject)
2. Provide a data.table or data.frame with cell annotations and specificy which column contains the cell IDs, these cell IDs need to match with the cell_ID column in pDataDT(gobject)
