gf_barh: Formula interface to geom_barh()

Description

Horizontal version of geom_bar().

Usage

gf_barh(
  object = NULL,
  gformula = NULL,
  data = NULL,
  ...,
  alpha,
  color,
  fill,
  group,
  linetype,
  size,
  width = NULL,
  xlab,
  ylab,
  title,
  subtitle,
  caption,
  geom = "barh",
  stat = "counth",
  position = "stackv",
  show.legend = NA,
  show.help = NULL,
  inherit = TRUE,
  environment = parent.frame()
)

Arguments

object

When chaining, this holds an object produced in the earlier portions of the chain. Most users can safely ignore this argument. See details and examples.

gformula

A formula, typically with shape ~ x. (y ~ x is also possible, but typically using one of gf_col(), gf_props(), or gf_percents() is preferable to using this formula shape.) Faceting can be achieved by including | in the formula.

data

The data to be displayed in this layer. There are three options:

If NULL, the default, the data is inherited from the plot data as specified in the call to ggplot().

A data.frame, or other object, will override the plot data. All objects will be fortified to produce a data frame. See fortify() for which variables will be created.

A function will be called with a single argument, the plot data. The return value must be a data.frame, and will be used as the layer data. A function can be created from a formula (e.g. ~ head(.x, 10)).

...

Additional arguments. Typically these are (a) ggplot2 aesthetics to be set with attribute = value, (b) ggplot2 aesthetics to be mapped with attribute = ~ expression, or (c) attributes of the layer as a whole, which are set with attribute = value.

alpha

Opacity (0 = invisible, 1 = opaque).

color

A color or a formula used for mapping color.

fill

A color for filling, or a formula used for mapping fill.

group

Used for grouping.

linetype

A linetype (numeric or "dashed", "dotted", etc.) or a formula used for mapping linetype.

size

A numeric size or a formula used for mapping size.

width

Width of the bars.

xlab

Label for x-axis. See also gf_labs().

ylab

Label for y-axis. See also gf_labs().

title

Title, sub-title, and caption for the plot. See also gf_labs().

subtitle

Title, sub-title, and caption for the plot. See also gf_labs().

caption

Title, sub-title, and caption for the plot. See also gf_labs().

geom

A character string naming the geom used to make the layer.

stat

Override the default connection between geom_bar() and stat_count().

position

Position adjustment, either as a string, or the result of a call to a position adjustment function.

show.legend

logical. Should this layer be included in the legends? NA, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped. FALSE never includes, and TRUE always includes. It can also be a named logical vector to finely select the aesthetics to display.

show.help

If TRUE, display some minimal help.

inherit

A logical indicating whether default attributes are inherited.

environment

An environment in which to look for variables not found in data.

Value

a gg object

Horizontal Geoms

There are two ways to obtain "horizontal" geoms: (1) The ggstance package provides a set of "horizontal" geoms and positions; (2) Thee ggplot2 now provides an orientation argument for "native" horizontal geoms and positions. ggformula supports both.

Specifying plot attributes

Positional attributes (a.k.a, aesthetics) are specified using the formula in gformula. Setting and mapping of additional attributes can be done through the use of additional arguments. Attributes can be set can be set using arguments of the form attribute = value or mapped using arguments of the form attribute = ~ expression.

In formulas of the form A | B, B will be used to form facets using facet_wrap() or facet_grid(). This provides an alternative to gf_facet_wrap() and gf_facet_grid() that is terser and may feel more familiar to users of lattice.

Evaluation

Evaluation of the ggplot2 code occurs in the environment of gformula. This will typically do the right thing when formulas are created on the fly, but might not be the right thing if formulas created in one environment are used to create plots in another.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
gf_barh(~Diet, data = ChickWeight)
gf_bar(Diet ~ ., data = ChickWeight, orientation = 'y' )
gf_barh(~substance, data = mosaicData::HELPrct, fill = ~sex)
gf_bar(substance ~ ., data = mosaicData::HELPrct, fill = ~sex, orientation = 'y')
gf_barh(~substance,
  data = mosaicData::HELPrct, fill = ~sex,
  position = position_dodgev()
)
# gf_countsh() is another name for gf_barh()
gf_countsh(~Diet, data = ChickWeight)

# gf_propsh() and gf_percentsh() use proportions or percentages instead of counts
gf_propsh(substance ~ ., data = mosaicData::HELPrct, fill = ~sex,
  position = position_dodgev())
gf_props(substance ~ ., data = mosaicData::HELPrct, fill = ~sex,
  position = position_dodge(), orientation = 'y')
gf_props(~substance, data = mosaicData::HELPrct, fill = ~sex,
  position = position_dodge())
gf_percents(~substance, data = mosaicData::HELPrct, fill = ~sex,
  position = position_dodge())

if (require(scales)) {
  gf_props(~substance, data = mosaicData::HELPrct, fill = ~sex,
    position = position_dodge()) %>%
      gf_refine(scale_y_continuous(labels = scales::percent))
}
# }
