In timelyportfolio/googlefontR: Use Google Fonts in R

knitr::opts_chunk$set(
  collapse = TRUE,
  comment = "#>",
  fig.path = "README-"
)

Why googlefontR?

Google Fonts is a really incredible resource, but adding Google Fonts to R generated HTML can be a big pain. googlefontR tries to ease the pain with some helper functions.

Install

Not on CRAN, so please install with devtools.

devtools::install_github("timelyportfolio/googlefontR")

Examples

library("googlefontR")
library("htmltools")

browsable(
  gf_add_font(
    tags$h1("Baloo Paaji provided by googlefontR"),
    "Baloo Paaji"
  )
)

Note the style is automatically applied to body. If you don't want this to happen, change addstyle=FALSE.

browsable(
  gf_add_font(
    tag_list = tags$h1("Baloo Paaji provided by googlefontR"),
    fontname = "Baloo Paaji",
    addstyle = FALSE
  )
)

with svglite

I think googlefontR will work great with svglite.

library(svglite)
library(htmltools)
library(googlefontR)

s<-svgstring(standalone=FALSE)
plot(cars)
dev.off()

gf_add_font(
  HTML(
    gsub(
      x = s(),
      pattern = "(font-family: Arial;)",
      replacement = ""
    )
  ),
  "Architects Daughter"
)
