In mplourde/svgg: What the package does (short line)

svgg

svgg is an R package for adding mouse effects to ggplot2 plot outputs presented with Shiny. The mouse effects include point tooltips for geom_point, geom_line, geom_boxplot, and any combination of these plots created with arrangeGrob from the gridExtra package. This package relies on the gridSVG package for converting ggplot2 plots to SVG.

See the demo.

Installation and Usage

If not already installed, install devtools.

install.packages('devtools')

Install svgg

library(devtools)
install_github('mplourde/svgg')

Run svg.example for examples of the outputs you can generate with this package.

library(svgg)
svgg.example()

svgg conforms to the established syntax of ggplot2 and shiny. For example, to generate a boxplot with outlier tooltips and a download-as-PNG popover, you would write something like the following:

library(shiny)
library(ggplot2)
library(svgg)

ui <- fluidPage(
    svgOutput('myplot')
)

server <- function(input, output) {
    output$simple_boxplot <- renderSVGG({
        p <- ggplot(diamonds, 
                aes(cut, carat, outlier.labels=I(color), group=cut)) + 
            geom_boxplot()
        p
    }, popover=list(title='My Plot'))
}

shinyApp(ui=ui, server=server)
