cmocean colour scales for ggplot2

Description

Helper functions to allow the colour scale to be used effectively in ggplot2.

Usage

  scale_colour_cmocean(
    ..., alpha = 1, start = 0, end = 1, direction = 1, discrete = FALSE,
    name = "thermal", version = getOption('cmocean-version', '2.0')
  )
  scale_color_cmocean(
    ..., alpha = 1, start = 0, end = 1, direction = 1, discrete = FALSE,
    name = "thermal", version = getOption('cmocean-version', '2.0')
  )
  scale_fill_cmocean(
    ..., alpha = 1, start = 0, end = 1, direction = 1, discrete = FALSE,
    name = "thermal", version = getOption('cmocean-version', '2.0')
  )

Arguments

...	parameters to ggplot2 functions discrete_scale or scale_fill_gradientn.
alpha	opacity of the palette in the range [0, 1].
start	fraction of the colormap to clip from its start, in [0, 1].
end	fraction of the colormap where it should stop, in [0, 1]; \mathtt{start} < \mathtt{end}.
direction	set to -1 to reverse the palette.
discrete	set to TRUE to generate a discrete palette instead of a continuous one.
name	the name of one of the available cmocean colormaps, see cmocean for the full list.
version	specific cmocean version you would like to use, passed as-is to cmocean. Defaults to the latest available version of the palette set.

Value

A ggplot object to be used with other ggplot objects.
