I wanted to see an exact output of a Highcharter plot side by side in RStudio Viewer if it possible, exactly showed in this reference: http://jkunst.com/highcharter/highcharts.html, So let me define it like this for a simple usage
highcharter_all_plot <- function(){
library(highcharter)
library(dplyr)
library(stringr)
library(purrr)
n <- 5
set.seed(123)
colors <- c("#d35400", "#2980b9", "#2ecc71", "#f1c40f", "#2c3e50", "#7f8c8d")
colors2 <- c("#000004", "#3B0F70", "#8C2981", "#DE4968", "#FE9F6D", "#FCFDBF")
df <- data.frame(x = seq_len(n) - 1) %>%
mutate(
y = 10 + x + 10 * sin(x),
y = round(y, 1),
z = (x*y) - median(x*y),
e = 10 * abs(rnorm(length(x))) + 2,
e = round(e, 1),
low = y - e,
high = y + e,
value = y,
name = sample(fruit[str_length(fruit) <= 5], size = n),
color = rep(colors, length.out = n),
segmentColor = rep(colors2, length.out = n)
)
print(head(df))
create_hc <- function(t) {
dont_rm_high_and_low <- c("arearange", "areasplinerange",
"columnrange", "errorbar")
is_polar <- str_detect(t, "polar")
t <- str_replace(t, "polar", "")
if(!t %in% dont_rm_high_and_low){
df <- df %>% dplyr::select(-e, -low, -high)
}
highchart() %>%
hc_title(text = paste(ifelse(is_polar, "polar ", ""), t),
style = list(fontSize = "15px")) %>%
hc_chart(type = t,
polar = is_polar) %>%
hc_xAxis(categories = df$name) %>%
hc_add_series(df, name = "Fruit Consumption", showInLegend = FALSE)
}
hcs <- c("line", "spline", "area", "areaspline",
"column", "bar", "waterfall" , "funnel", "pyramid",
"pie" , "treemap", "scatter", "bubble",
"arearange", "areasplinerange", "columnrange", "errorbar",
"polygon", "polarline", "polarcolumn", "polarcolumnrange",
"coloredarea", "coloredline") %>% map(create_hc)
return(hcs)
}
x <- highcharter_all_plot()
#Then plot can be accessed in by calling x[[1]], x[[2]], x[[3]]..
As far as my understanding of side by side plot, I only know of 2 these handy methods, which is:
1) Using par(mfrow)
par(mfrow=c(3,4)) -> (which only can by applied to base plot)
2) Using grid.arrange from gridExtra
library(gridExtra)
grid.arrange(x[[1]], x[[2]], x[[3]], x[[4]], nrow=2, ncol=2)
-> (Cannot work since x not a ggplot type)
So I wanted to know if there is a way that this can be applied? I am new using Highcharter
