Overview

About

Maintained by Barry ZeebergCRAN page ↗

Produce an HTML page containing horizontal strips that symbolize events in a person's lsife. Since this is entirely a visualization, the image https://barryzee.github.io/henry-timeline/henry.html will show the basic use to show a timeline of events. The image https://barryzee.github.io/vermeer/cssOverlay.html shows how to correlate two timelines of events. A brief description is available at https://barryzee.github.io/timeLineGraphics_manuscript/golden_age.html.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

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

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

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-timelinegraphics

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-timeLineGraphics

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

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