benelib

My personal R library

The goal of benelib is to make my life considerably easier. This package includes various helper functions for ggplot2 plots, RStudio projects or R Markdown templates and a few things more.

Installation

You can install and loaded the released version of benelib from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("benediktclaus/benelib")
library(benelib)

Examples

ggplot2 Colors and Fills

One of the main reasons for this package to exist is the abilty to change ggplot2’s default color and fill scales to a given corporate design.

library(ggplot2)
use_personal_theme()

palmer_penguins %>% 
  ggplot(aes(bill_length_mm, bill_depth_mm, color = species)) +
  geom_point()
#> Warning in check_font_path(italic, "italic"): 'italic' should be a length-one
#> vector, using the first element

Plot themes

Another nice addition is my personal ggplot2 theme.

palmer_penguins %>% 
  ggplot(aes(bill_length_mm, bill_depth_mm, color = species)) +
  geom_point() +
  theme_bene()
#> Warning in check_font_path(italic, "italic"): 'italic' should be a length-one
#> vector, using the first element
