get_base_plot: Generates the plot

In lmullany/iddplotting: Aids in plotting COVID-19 model results with empirical data

Description

This function generates the base plot, upon receiving a list of plot data information

Usage

get_base_plot(
  dt,
  ytransform = "sqrt",
  empirical_label = paste0("Reported ", dt$outcome),
  model_label = paste0("Modelled ", dt$outcome),
  x_label = "Date",
  fill_label = "Range Estimates",
  color_label = "Outcomes",
  title_string = paste0(dt$location),
  dateticks = NULL,
  caption_below_plot = NULL,
  xlimits = NULL,
  yticklabels = ggplot2::waiver(),
  smooth = F,
  smooth_ci = F,
  legend_location = c("belowplot", "bottomright", "topleft"),
  labsize = 8
)

Arguments

dt	plot data, from the get_plot_data function
ytransform	defaults to "sqrt" but can be "identify", "log", "log10", etc
empirical_label	label for the plot legend for the empirical data (default is "Reported")
model_label	label for the plot legend for the modelled data (default is "Modelled")
x_label	label for the x-axis (default is "Date")
fill_label	label for the legend denoting the ribbon/range fills (default is "Range Estimates")
color_label	label for the legend deonoting the outcome color
title_string	default is to use the location from the dt list, but will be the title of plot
dateticks	a vector of dates for the x-axis
caption_below_plot	string value for the caption below (default is no caption)
yticklabels	a vector of ticks specified for the yaxis
smooth	add a generalized additive model cubic regression spline smoother to empirical data? (default is FALSE)
smooth_ci	add CI to the empirical data smoother? (default is F)
legend_location	specify the location of the legend, either 'belowplot' (default), 'topleft', or 'bottomright'
labsize	specify the text size for the axis tick labels and the legend (default is 8)

Examples

get_base_plot(plt_df, "sqrt", caption="My Caption")
