R Plotting Functions Using 'ggplot2'.

RplotterPkg

The goal of RplotterPkg is to provide easy access to the many ggplot2 geom plotting routines for everyday use. The package uses a functional approach along with the fast, efficient data frame processing from data.table.

Installation

You can install the development version of RplotterPkg from GitHub with:

Using pak::pak():

pak::pak("deandevl/RplotterPkg")

Using devtools::install_github():

devtools::install_github("deandevl/RplotterPkg")

Examples

The following script shows how simple it is to create a standard scatter plot. Other standard plots include bar, box, density, density_ridge, histogram, range, heatmap, and stick plots.

Other functions for plots are available including multi_panel, spread_level, stem_leaf, and symmetry.

Additional examples showing heatmap, waffle, and stem_leaf are available here.
