Create a line chart without aggregation for any metric

Source: R/create_line_asis.R
create_line_asis.Rd

This function creates a line chart directly from the aggregated / summarised data. Unlike create_line() which performs a person-level aggregation, there is no calculation for create_line_asis() and the values are rendered as they are passed into the function. The only requirement is that a date_var is provided for the x-axis.

Usage

create_line_asis(
  data,
  date_var = "MetricDate",
  metric,
  title = NULL,
  subtitle = NULL,
  caption = NULL,
  ylab = date_var,
  xlab = metric,
  line_colour = rgb2hex(0, 120, 212),
  label = FALSE
)

Arguments

data

Plotting data as a data frame.

date_var

String containing name of variable for the horizontal axis.

metric

String containing name of variable representing the line.

title

Title of the plot.

subtitle

Subtitle of the plot.

caption

Caption of the plot.

ylab

Y-axis label for the plot (group axis)

xlab

X-axis label of the plot (bar axis).

line_colour

String to specify colour to use for the line. Hex codes are accepted. You can also supply RGB values via rgb2hex().

label

Logical value to determine whether to show data point labels on the plot. If TRUE, both geom_point() and geom_text() are added to display data labels rounded to 1 decimal place above each data point. Defaults to FALSE.

Value

Returns a 'ggplot' object representing a line plot.

# Median `Emails_sent` grouped by `MetricDate`
# Without Person Averaging
med_df <-
  pq_data %>%
  group_by(MetricDate) %>%
  summarise(Emails_sent_median = median(Emails_sent))

med_df %>%

    metric = "Emails_sent_median",
    title = "Median Emails Sent",
    subtitle = "Person Averaging Not Applied",

  )


# Create line plot with data point labels
