[![CRAN status](https://www.r-pkg.org/badges/version/ggRtsy)](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=ggRtsy)### Overview
The 'ggRtsy' package works with 'ggplot2' to add an additional color palette to the user’s repertoire. This is the `goghColors` dataset, which contains the RGB and hex codes of colors picked from Van Gogh paintings. It has been broken down into an easy-to-use color palette based on Van Gogh's most famous paintings, in the `gogh_palettes_pop` list.
#### Functions within the package:
It also has a function that work alongside ggplot to create more interesting data visualizations and add contextual information to the user’s plots.
- RectangleFiller() - divides data visualizations into a specified number of colored quadrants based on the number of input colors, improving the readability of graphs.
- scale_color_gogh() - used to color the point/lines of your ggplot
- scale_fill_gogh() - used to fill the inner color/bars of your ggplot
- rgbToHeX() - used to convert rgb color codes to hex color codes
- gogh_interpolate() - interpolates between the colors in `gogh_palettes_pop`
### Usage example
```{r, include=FALSE}
# Hidden chunk because it is setup for example
library(dplyr)
library(ggplot2)
library(ggRtsy)
library(purrr)exampleData <- starwars %>%
filter(mass < 1000)
plotExample <- ggplot(exampleData, aes(x = height, y = mass)) +
geom_point() +
scale_x_continuous()
```Using Hex Codes from the dataset `goghColors`, three colors were added on top of a ggplot() sample scatter plot. Based on the plot, the function automatically calculated three equal widths of the rectangles, and stretched them to upper and lower bounds on the y-axis.
```{r ex1, warning=FALSE}
RectangleFiller(plotExample, c("#e32636", "#9966cc", "#f4c2c2"))
```#### Continuous scale_color_gogh() example using the `cafeTerrace` color palette:
```{r ex2, warning=FALSE, message=FALSE}
ggplot(exampleData, aes(x = height, y = mass, color = birth_year)) +
geom_point(size = 3) +
scale_color_gogh(palette = "cafeTerrace", discrete = FALSE, reverse = TRUE) +
theme_minimal()
```#### Discrete scale_fill_gogh() example using the `almondBlossoms` color palette:
```{r ex3, warning=FALSE, message=FALSE}
ggplot(storms, aes(x = category, fill = status)) +
geom_bar() +
scale_fill_gogh(palette = "almondBlossoms", discrete = TRUE, reverse = FALSE) +
theme_minimal()
```This package also comes with rgbToHex(), converting rgb colors into hex code colors.
```{r}
rgbToHex(c("(225, 104, 39)", "(60, 90, 202)"))
```### Installation instructions
Get the development version from GitHub:
```{r, message=FALSE, eval=FALSE}
# Install remotes if needed:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("katelyndiaz/ggRtsy")
```And load it with
```{r}
library(ggRtsy)
