The c3 package is a wrapper, or
htmlwidget, for the
C3 javascript charting library by Masayuki
Tanaka. You will find this package
useful if you are wanting to create a chart using
R and embedding it in a Rmarkdown document
or Shiny App.
The C3 library is very versatile and includes a lot of options.
Currently this package wraps most of the C3 options
object.
You probably already guessed this bit.
install.packages('c3')
# OR
devtools::install_github("mrjoh3/c3")The c3 package is intended to be as simple and lightweight as
possible. As a starting point the data input must be a data.frame or
tibble with several options.
Where no options are supplied a simple line plot is produced by default.
Where no x-axis is defined the plots are sequential. Date x-axis can
be parsed with not additional setting if in the format %Y-%m-%d (ie
‘2014-01-01’)
library(c3)
data <- data.frame(a = abs(rnorm(20) * 10),
b = abs(rnorm(20) * 10),
date = seq(as.Date("2014-01-01"), by = "month", length.out = 20))
c3(data)
