[![CRAN_Status_Badge](http://www.r-pkg.org/badges/version/rcartocolor)](https://cran.r-project.org/package=rcartocolor)

[![CRAN RStudio mirror downloads](http://cranlogs.r-pkg.org/badges/rcartocolor)](https://cran.r-project.org/package=rcartocolor)

The goal of `rcartocolor` is to provide color schemes for maps and other graphics designed by [CARTO](https://carto.com/) as described at https://carto.com/carto-colors/.

## Installation

Get the released version from CRAN:

```{r cran-installation, eval = FALSE}

install.packages("rcartocolor")

```

Get the development version from github:

```{r gh-installation, eval = FALSE}

# install.packages("remotes")

remotes::install_github("Nowosad/rcartocolor")

```

## Examples

Display a CARTOcolor palette:

```{r example}

library(rcartocolor)

display_carto_pal(7, "Vivid")

```

Create a CARTOcolor palette:

```{r example2}

my_colors = carto_pal(7, "Burg")

my_colors

```

Display all of the CARTOcolor palettes:

```{r example3, fig.height=7, fig.width=6}

display_carto_all()

```

[Only display colorblind friendly palettes](https://jakubnowosad.com/colorblindcheck/articles/check_rcartocolor.html):

```{r example4, fig.height=6, fig.width=6}

display_carto_all(colorblind_friendly = TRUE)

```

### **ggplot2**

The **rcartocolor** package contains four **ggplot2** color scales: two for continuous data - `scale_fill_carto_c`, `scale_color_carto_c` and two for discrete data - `scale_fill_carto_d`, `scale_color_carto_d`:

```{r examplegg1}

# devtools::install_github("tidyverse/ggplot2")

library(sf)

library(spData)

library(ggplot2)

ggplot(world, aes(fill = lifeExp)) +

        geom_sf(data = world) +

        coord_sf(crs = "+proj=robin") +

        scale_fill_carto_c(name = "Life expectancy: ",

                           type = "diverging", palette = "Earth", direction = -1) +

        theme_void()

```

```{r examplegg2}

ggplot(world, aes(fill = region_un)) +

        geom_sf(data = world) +

        coord_sf(crs = "+proj=robin")  +

        scale_fill_carto_d(name = "Region: ", palette = "Safe") +

        theme_void()

```
