Create a pie chart.

ggpie(
  data,
  x,
  label = x,
  lab.pos = c("out", "in"),
  lab.adjust = 0,
  lab.font = c(4, "plain", "black"),
  font.family = "",
  color = "black",
  fill = "white",
  palette = NULL,
  size = NULL,
  ggtheme = theme_pubr(),
  ...
)

Arguments

data

a data frame

x

variable containing values for drawing.

label

variable specifying the label of each slice.

lab.pos

character specifying the position for labels. Allowed values are "out" (for outside) or "in" (for inside).

lab.adjust

numeric value, used to adjust label position when lab.pos = "in". Increase or decrease this value to see the effect.

lab.font

a vector of length 3 indicating respectively the size (e.g.: 14), the style (e.g.: "plain", "bold", "italic", "bold.italic") and the color (e.g.: "red") of label font. For example lab.font= c(4, "bold", "red").

font.family

character vector specifying font family.

color, fill

outline and fill colors.

palette

the color palette to be used for coloring or filling by groups. Allowed values include "grey" for grey color palettes; brewer palettes e.g. "RdBu", "Blues", ...; or custom color palette e.g. c("blue", "red"); and scientific journal palettes from ggsci R package, e.g.: "npg", "aaas", "lancet", "jco", "ucscgb", "uchicago", "simpsons" and "rickandmorty".

size

Numeric value (e.g.: size = 1). change the size of points and outlines.

ggtheme

function, ggplot2 theme name. Default value is theme_pubr(). Allowed values include ggplot2 official themes: theme_gray(), theme_bw(), theme_minimal(), theme_classic(), theme_void(), ....

...

other arguments to be passed to be passed to ggpar().

Details

The plot can be easily customized using the function ggpar(). Read ?ggpar for changing:

  • main title and axis labels: main, xlab, ylab

  • axis limits: xlim, ylim (e.g.: ylim = c(0, 30))

  • axis scales: xscale, yscale (e.g.: yscale = "log2")

  • color palettes: palette = "Dark2" or palette = c("gray", "blue", "red")

  • legend title, labels and position: legend = "right"

  • plot orientation : orientation = c("vertical", "horizontal", "reverse")
