Overview

About

Maintained by Marcel RaabCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

A set of wrapper functions that mainly re-produces most of the sequence plots rendered with TraMineR::seqplot(). Whereas 'TraMineR' uses base R to produce the plots this library draws on 'ggplot2'. The plots are produced on the basis of a sequence object defined with TraMineR::seqdef(). The package automates the reshaping and plotting of sequence data. Resulting plots are of class 'ggplot', i.e. components can be added and tweaked using '+' and regular 'ggplot2' functions.

Changes in 0.8.9

added ytlab argument for ggseqiplot (requested by @helske, #9); allows to use ID labels in index plots similar to {TraMineR}
fixed empty aesthetic warning in ggseqmsplot
moved ggplot2 and TraMineR to Imports
behind the scenes: revised tests and added revdepcheck

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("ggseqplot", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("maraab23/ggseqplot")

Development version from maraab23/ggseqplot. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-ggseqplot

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-ggseqplot

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-ggseqplot

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
