Quick question all. I have some data in sql server which i have loaded into RStudio. I have made a barchart for the data and now i am using leaflet library with the use of latitude and longitude to plot a point on the map. I want to be able to use popup to show a barchart in it when the user clicks on the point.
BarChart code (maybe this is a problem because i am using googleVis library so not sure if i can use this in the popup. but again this is the most appropriate bar graph i can make and need- other suggestions could be helpful as i am not a professional in R libraries yet)
Switzerland <- sqlQuery(con, "sql query")
SwitzerlandChart <- gvisBarChart(Switzerland, options = list(height=200))
For the graph plot the code is:
m <- leaflet() %>%
addTiles() %>% # Add default OpenStreetMap map tiles
addCircles(lng=8.498868, lat=46.9221, popup=paste(plot(SwitzerlandChart)))
When i run this code it opens a webpage to view my barplot. Then i run the following:
m #Prints the graph
This prints the graph with the point in the desired location but the popup shows me a webpage instead which also only i can open.
I want to be able to plot the bargraph inside the popup please.
Hope someone can help
This may be a little late too, but here is a full leaflet implementation. I first create the plot and then use the popupGraph function to add it in.
# make a plot of the two columns in the dataset
p <- xyplot(Home ~ Auto, data = Jun, col = "orange", pch = 20, cex = 2)
# make one for each data point
p <- mget(rep("p", length(Jun)))
# color code it so that the corresponding points are dark green
clr <- rep("orange", length(Jun))
p <- lapply(1:length(p), function(i) {
clr[i] <- "dark green"
update(p[[i]], col = clr)
})
# now make the leaflet map
m1 <- leaflet() %>%
addTiles() %>%
setView(lng = -72, lat = 41, zoom = 8) %>%
# add the markers for the Jun dataset
# use the popupGraph function
addCircleMarkers(data = Jun, lat = ~Lat, lng = ~Lon,
color = ~beatCol(BeatHomeLvl), popup = popupGraph(p),
radius = ~sqrt(BeatHome*50), group = 'Home - Jun') %>%
# layer control
addLayersControl(
overlayGroups = c('Home - Jun'
),
options = layersControlOptions(collapsed = F)
) %>%
# legend for compare to average
addLegend('bottomright', pal = beatCol, values = last$BeatTotalLvl,
title = 'Compare<br>Quote Count to<br>3Mos State Avg',
opacity = 1)
m1
Here is the output.
Maybe a little late but here's a solution. The addPopups()
function in library(leaflet)
seems to be able to handle .svg
files. Therefore, you could simply save your plot using svg()
and then read it again using readLines()
. Here's a reproducible example using library(mapview)
:
library(lattice)
library(mapview)
library(sp)
data(meuse)
coordinates(meuse) <- ~x+y
proj4string(meuse) <- CRS("+init=epsg:28992")
clr <- rep("grey", length(meuse))
fldr <- tempfile()
dir.create(fldr)
pop <- lapply(seq(length(meuse)), function(i) {
clr[i] <- "red"
p <- xyplot(meuse$cadmium ~ meuse$copper,
col = clr, pch = 20, alpha = 0.7)
svg(filename = paste(fldr, "test.svg", sep = "/"),
width = 250 * 0.01334, height = 250 * 0.01334)
print(p)
dev.off()
tst <- paste(readLines(paste(fldr, "test.svg", sep = "/")), collapse = "")
return(tst)
})
mapview(meuse, popup = pop, cex = "cadmium")
You will see that each popup is a scatterplot. As for a leaflet
example, consider this:
content <- pop[[1]]
leaflet() %>% addTiles() %>%
addPopups(-122.327298, 47.597131, content,
options = popupOptions(closeButton = FALSE)
)
In case you need the plot to be interactive, you could have a look at library(gridSVG)
which is able to produce interactive svg plots from e.g. lattice
or ggplot2
plots.
UPDATE:
library(mapview)
now has designated functionality for this:
popupGraph
: to embed lattice, ggplot2 or interactive hatmlwidgets based plots.popupImage
: to embed local or remote (web) imagesThis is currently only available in the development version of mapview which can be installed with:
devtools::install_github("environmentalinformatics-marburg/mapview", ref = "develop"
