Overview

About

Maintained by Zuguang GuFirst published 2021-07-018 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

It visualizes data along an Archimedean spiral https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedean_spiral, makes so-called spiral graph or spiral chart. It has two major advantages for visualization: 1. It is able to visualize data with very long axis with high resolution. 2. It is efficient for time series data to reveal periodic patterns.

# 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 dnf install -y R-CRAN-spiralize

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 \
