In teal.modules.general: General Modules for 'teal' Applications

teal module: Response plot

Description

Generates a response plot for a given response and x variables. This module allows users customize and add annotations to the plot depending on the module's arguments. It supports showing the counts grouped by other variable facets (by row / column), swapping the coordinates, show count annotations and displaying the response plot as frequency or density.

Usage

tm_g_response(
  label = "Response Plot",
  response,
  x,
  row_facet = NULL,
  col_facet = NULL,
  coord_flip = FALSE,
  count_labels = TRUE,
  rotate_xaxis_labels = FALSE,
  freq = FALSE,
  plot_height = c(600, 400, 5000),
  plot_width = NULL,
  ggtheme = c("gray", "bw", "linedraw", "light", "dark", "minimal", "classic", "void"),
  ggplot2_args = teal.widgets::ggplot2_args(),
  pre_output = NULL,
  post_output = NULL,
  transformators = list(),
  decorators = list()
)

Arguments

label	(character(1)) Label shown in the navigation item for the module or module group. For modules() defaults to "root". See Details.
response	(data_extract_spec or list of multiple data_extract_spec) Which variable to use as the response. You can define one fixed column by setting fixed = TRUE inside the select_spec. The data_extract_spec must not allow multiple selection in this case.
x	(data_extract_spec or list of multiple data_extract_spec) Specifies which variable to use on the X-axis of the response plot. Allow the user to select multiple columns from the data allowed in teal. The data_extract_spec must not allow multiple selection in this case.
row_facet	(data_extract_spec or list of multiple data_extract_spec) optional specification of the data variable(s) to use for faceting rows.
col_facet	(data_extract_spec or list of multiple data_extract_spec) optional specification of the data variable(s) to use for faceting columns.
coord_flip	(logical(1)) Indicates whether to flip coordinates between x and response. The default value is FALSE and it will show the x variable on the x-axis and the response variable on the y-axis.
count_labels	(logical(1)) Indicates whether to show count labels. Defaults to TRUE.
rotate_xaxis_labels	(logical) optional, whether to rotate plot X axis labels. Does not rotate by default (FALSE).
freq	(logical(1)) Indicates whether to display frequency (TRUE) or density (FALSE). Defaults to density (FALSE).
plot_height	(numeric) optional, specifies the plot height as a three-element vector of value, min, and max intended for use with a slider UI element.
plot_width	(numeric) optional, specifies the plot width as a three-element vector of value, min, and max for a slider encoding the plot width.
ggtheme	(character) optional, ggplot2 theme to be used by default. Defaults to "gray".
ggplot2_args	(ggplot2_args) object created by teal.widgets::ggplot2_args() with settings for the module plot. The argument is merged with options variable teal.ggplot2_args and default module setup. For more details see the vignette: vignette("custom-ggplot2-arguments", package = "teal.widgets")
pre_output	(shiny.tag) optional, text or UI element to be displayed before the module's output, providing context or a title. with text placed before the output to put the output into context. For example a title.
post_output	(shiny.tag) optional, text or UI element to be displayed after the module's output, adding context or further instructions. Elements like shiny::helpText() are useful.
transformators	(list of teal_transform_module) that will be applied to transform module's data input. To learn more check vignette("transform-input-data", package = "teal").
decorators	(named list of lists of teal_transform_module) optional, decorator for tables or plots included in the module output reported. The decorators are applied to the respective output objects. See section "Decorating Module" below for more details.

Value

Object of class teal_module to be used in teal applications.

Decorating Module

This module generates the following objects, which can be modified in place using decorators:

• plot (ggplot)

A Decorator is applied to the specific output using a named list of teal_transform_module objects. The name of this list corresponds to the name of the output to which the decorator is applied. See code snippet below:

tm_g_response(
   ..., # arguments for module
   decorators = list(
     plot = teal_transform_module(...) # applied to the `plot` output
   )
)

For additional details and examples of decorators, refer to the vignette vignette("decorate-module-output", package = "teal.modules.general").

To learn more please refer to the vignette vignette("transform-module-output", package = "teal") or the teal::teal_transform_module() documentation.
