title: 'autocodebook: Automatic Codebook and Tracking for ''Spark'' and ''dplyr''
  Pipelines'
version: 0.1.0
abstract: Wraps 'dplyr' verbs (mutate, summarise, filter) to automatically capture
  variable metadata (type, source columns, categories, and source code), producing
  a codebook and eligibility tracking table with zero manual documentation. Works
  with both 'sparklyr' (tbl_spark) and local data frames. Adds big-data optimizations
  (caching, assume-unique counting, checkpointing) and a standardized report module
  with an eligibility flowchart, editable codebook export (HTML, DOCX, XLSX), and
  cross-sectional or longitudinal variable inspection. The eligibility flowchart follows
  the CONSORT statement (Schulz, Altman and Moher (2010) <https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.c332>)
  and the reporting of observational cohort studies follows the STROBE recommendations
  (von Elm and others (2007) <https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed.0040296>).
