#boxplot(count ~ spray, data = InsectSprays, col = "lightgray")

exploding_boxplot(
  data.frame(
    rowname = rownames(InsectSprays),
    InsectSprays,
    stringsAsFactors = FALSE
  ),
  y = "count",
  group = "spray",
  color = "spray",
  label = "rowname"
)

# demonstrate all of the options
#  xlab does not work
#  filed issue on source repo
exploding_boxplot(

explodingboxplotr's Issues

Enhancement requests

I'm sure most if not all are on list

a) axis labels and some control over orientation
b) ability to 'implode' and exploded bar - rather than refreshing browser
c) more control over 'label'. Currently entering one field appears to show that and faintly the other axis
d) title
e) Ability to control box color inc setting to just one. Currently has variety of colors with no specific meaning. labels for some colors e.g. yellow are hard to read
f) Explanation of iqr argument in exploding_boxplot()

Great widget. Sure will have plenty of users

Another Shiny issue. Nothing displayed.

Hi, I have recently discovered this package, and I am pretty fond of it.

Unfortunately, I can't manage to make it work together with Shiny.

Here is the dummy code I tried :

library(shiny)
library(explodingboxplotR)
data(iris)

 ui <- fluidPage(
    titlePanel("Exploding Boxplot Test"),
    mainPanel(
        exploding_boxplotOutput("box")
    )
)

server <- function(input, output, session) {
    output$box <- renderExploding_boxplot({
        print("ping")
        exploding_boxplot(
            data.frame(
                rowname = rownames(iris),
                iris,
                stringsAsFactors = FALSE
            ),
            y = "Sepal.Length",
            group = "Species",
            color = "Species",
            label = "Species"
        )
    })
}

shinyApp(ui,server)

When I launch it, nothing seems to happen (the Shiny server starts with the title on the page, but that's it).

Shiny issue. Resources not loading

Love the package but...

library(shiny)
library(explodingboxplotR)
app <- shinyApp(
  ui = fluidPage(
    exploding_boxplotOutput("test", width = "100%", height = "400px")
  ),
  server = function(input, output) ({

  output$test <-  renderExploding_boxplot({
    exploding_boxplot(
      data.frame(
        rowname = rownames(InsectSprays),
        InsectSprays,
        stringsAsFactors = FALSE
      ),
      y = "count",
      group = "spray",
      color = "spray",
      label = "rowname"
    )

  })
})
)
