# Coyote

In an effort to keep my entire R environment reproducible, I'm moving everything from my `.rprofile` (except API keys) into a new package. This package has several functions and settings that make my daily coding in R much easier and faster. 

Install this package in `R` using with: 

```coffee

install_github("karthik/coyote")

```

## Notable functions

* `lsp()` - Lists all functions inside a package. Quick way to see what's been exported in a NAMESPACE. 

```coffee

lsp(ggplot2)

[1] "%+%"                       "%+replace%"               

  [3] "aes"                       "aes_all"                  

  [5] "aes_auto"                  "aes_string"               

  [7] "annotate"                  "annotation_custom"        

  [9] "annotation_logticks"       "annotation_map"           

 [11] "annotation_raster"         "autoplot"                 

 [13] "benchplot"                 "borders"                  

 [15] "calc_element"              "continuous_scale"         

 [17] "coord"                     "coord_cartesian"          

 [19] "coord_equal"               "coord_fixed"       

 ... [truncated]

```

You can also use the `pattern` argument to narrow down a function you might be looking for.

```coffee

> lsp(ggplot2, "scale")

 [1] "continuous_scale"          "discrete_scale"           

 [3] "scale_alpha"               "scale_alpha_continuous"   

 [5] "scale_alpha_discrete"      "scale_alpha_identity"     

 [7] "scale_alpha_manual"        "scale_area"               

 [9] "scale_color_brewer"        "scale_color_continuous"   

[11] "scale_color_discrete"      "scale_color_gradient"     

[13] "scale_color_gradient2"     "scale_color_gradientn"    

[15] "scale_color_grey"          "scale_color_hue"          

[17] "scale_color_identity"      "scale_color_manual"       

[19] "scale_colour_brewer"       "scale_colour_continuous"  

[21] "scale_colour_discrete"     "scale_colour_gradient"    

[23] "scale_colour_gradient2"    "scale_colour_gradientn"  

...[truncated]

```

## Shortcuts

I'm lazy, ok? `len` is particularly useful and wish it were R's default call.

* `len` short for `length`

* `h` short for `head`

* `n` short for `names`

* `s` short for `summary`

* `clear` - to clear your console (works on terminal only, not R gui)

## Default `ggplot` themes

I prefer a minimalist theme for my ggplots. The `onLoad()` function inside the package automatically loads `ggplot2`, and set this theme.

So a default plot that would normally look like this:

![old plot](old_ggplot.png)

will now look like this:

![new plot](new_ggplot.png)

## Miscellanea

Package also loads (inside `onLoad()`) libraries that I use all the time like `knitr`, `devtools`, `ggplot2`.

__Additional notes__  

All these functions are meant to help with development. I never use any of these in production (i.e. `coyote` will never show up on the Imports or Depends list for any of my packages). I also run everything with `R --vanilla` before shipping code to someone else.

If you have suggestions for more functionality, please free to post suggestions via issues or by sending a pull request.
