dfSummary does not show correct table in rendered html

[ryamy]

Here is my code.

dat <- tbl_df(diamonds)
view(dfSummary(dat))

this shows expected figures in generated html.

but I 'd like to embed those to my rmarkdown htmldocument, so I coded as like bellow;

dfSummary(dat, plain.ascii=FALSE, style='grid', graph.magnif=0.75,
          valid.col=FALSE, tmp.img.dir='tmpc')

but this does not works in rmarkdow rendered documents and results is bellow;

I wondered why all of my r command output is commented out by ## in rendered html, and assume this cause dfSummary output breaking.

How can I fix this issue? Do you have any ideas??

bellow is my emvironments:

Did you set your chunk's options to {r, results='asis'} ? If you did and it still did not work, try printing, i.e.

print(dfSummary(dat, plain.ascii=FALSE, style='grid', graph.magnif=0.75,
          valid.col=FALSE, tmp.img.dir='tmpc'))

Thanks, {r results='asis'} fixed the issue! This specified in vignette, I had to check that. Thanks a lot for your quick answer!
