plotTS: Time series plot

In EpiReport: Epidemiological Report

Description

This function draws a time series of the values of variable 'Yvar' with the time variable 'Xvar' on the x-axis.
Expects aggregated data.

Usage

plotTS(
  .data,
  xvar = "",
  xlabel = "",
  yvar = "",
  ylabel = "",
  fill_color = EcdcColors(col_scale = "qual", n = 1),
  log10_scale = FALSE,
  xvar_format = "%Y",
  xvar_breaks = "1 year"
)

Arguments

.data	dataframe containing the variables to plot
xvar	character string, name of the time variable (expects date format) to plot on the x-axis in quotes
xlabel	character string, label of the x axis
yvar	character string, name of the numerical variable to plot on the y-axis in quotes
ylabel	character string, label of the y axis
fill_color	character string, hexadecimal colour to use in the graph; (default to ECDC green "#65B32E", see EcdcColors(col_scale = "qual", n = 1)
log10_scale	boolean, TRUE if y-axis should be log scale (default FALSE ,see ggplot2::scale_y_log10)
xvar_format	character string, time format to use to plot the x-axis ("%Y" for yearly labels or "%b %Y" for monthly labels)
xvar_breaks	character string, time unit to use to plot the x-axis between breaks ("1 year" or "1 month", see ggplot2::scale_x_date(date_breaks = ... ))

Examples

# --- Create dummy data
mydat <- data.frame(TimeCode = seq(as.Date("2008/1/1"), as.Date("2017/1/1"), "years"),
                    YValue = sample(1:500/10, 10))

# --- Plot the dummy data
plotTS(mydat,
       xvar = "TimeCode",
       xlabel = "Year",
       yvar = "YValue",
       ylabel = "Rate per 100 000 population",
       log10_scale = FALSE,
       xvar_format = "%Y",
       xvar_breaks = "1 year")
