Highcharter 中的 Variwide 图表

Variwide charts in Highcharter

我想在 Highcharter 中创建这样的图表以在 R 中使用。

理想情况下,我想做的是一个条形图,其中条形的宽度是事件发生天数的分布。 我已经尝试使用 "pointWidth",但是,我需要根据事件的长度改变条形宽度。

这是我要绘制的数据框:

df <- data.frame(event = c("wedding", "party", "concert"), start_date = as.Date(c("2017-10-01", "2017-11-01", "2017-11-20")), end_date = as.Date(c("2017-10-10", "2017-11-18","2017-12-01")), event_days = c(9,17,11), customers = c("400", "150", "3000"))

这是我通常在 ggplot 中的做法:

ggplot(df, aes(start_date, customers, width = event_days)) + geom_bar(stat = "identity")

我想做的是在技术上让条形的宽度在事件发生的日子里。

This is what I would like to achieve - x-axis to be a timeline

pointRange 属性(属于一个系列)负责为列提供适当的跨度。

我想到了两个简单的解决方案:

1.为每个点创建一个单独的系列,应用pointRange并禁用groupinghttp://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/x8c3Ldwc/

2. 忽略 pointRange 并改用区域系列(每列单独系列)。必须应用一些特殊配置(演示中的 plotOptions)以使其看起来像柱形图:http://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/o1o5Ly1y/

所以我设法通过以下方式将 Kamil 在 jsfiddle 上提供的内容翻译成 Highcharter。

首先,数据的格式必须与我在问题中描述的方式不同。

   df2 <- data.frame(start_date = as.Date(c("2017-10-01", "2017-10-10", "2017-11-01", "2017-11-02", "2017-12-01", "2017-12-15")),
              customers = c(400,400, 200, 200,150,150),
              event = c("wedding","wedding", "party", "party", "concert","concert")) 

其次,图表类型必须设置为 "area" 而不是列:

highchart() %>% 
    hc_add_series(df2, "area", hcaes(x = datetime_to_timestamp(start_date), 
    y = customers, group = event)) %>% 
hc_xAxis(type = "datetime",
       title = "",
       showFirstLabel = FALSE,
       showLastLabel = FALSE,
       enableMouseTracking = TRUE) %>% 
hc_plotOptions(area = list(marker = list(
       enabled = FALSE,
       lineWidth = 0,
       states = list(
       hover = list(enabled = FALSE))))) %>% 
hc_tooltip(followPointer = TRUE)
