spec_hist: Helper functions to generate inline sparklines

In kableExtra: Construct Complex Table with 'kable' and Pipe Syntax

Description

These functions helps you quickly generate sets of sparkline style plots using base R plotting system. Currently, we support histogram, boxplot, line, scatter and pointrange plots. You can use them together with column_spec to generate inline plot in tables. By default, this function will save images in a folder called "kableExtra" and return the address of the file.

Usage

spec_hist(
  x,
  width = 200,
  height = 50,
  res = 300,
  breaks = "Sturges",
  same_lim = TRUE,
  lim = NULL,
  xaxt = "n",
  yaxt = "n",
  ann = FALSE,
  col = "lightgray",
  border = NULL,
  dir = if (is_latex()) rmd_files_dir() else tempdir(),
  file = NULL,
  file_type = if (is_latex()) "pdf" else svglite::svglite,
  ...
)

Arguments

x	Vector of values or List of vectors of values.
width	The width of the plot in pixel
height	The height of the plot in pixel
res	The resolution of the plot. Default is 300.
breaks	The break option in hist. Default is "Sturges" but you can also provide a vector to manually specify break points.
same_lim	T/F. If x is a list of vectors, should all the plots be plotted in the same range? Default is True.
lim	Manually specify plotting range in the form of c(0, 10).
xaxt	On/Off for xaxis text
yaxt	On/Off for yaxis text
ann	On/Off for annotations (titles and axis titles)
col	Color for the fill of the histogram bar/boxplot box.
border	Color for the border.
dir	Directory of where the images will be saved.
file	File name. If not provided, a random name will be used
file_type	Graphic device. Can be character (e.g., "pdf") or a graphics device function (grDevices::pdf). This defaults to "pdf" if the rendering is in LaTeX and "svg" otherwise. for HTML output
...	extra parameters sending to hist()
