You can install the plotcli package from GitHub using the devtools package:
# Install devtools if you haven't already
if (!requireNamespace("devtools", quietly = TRUE)) {
install.packages("devtools")
}
# Install plotcli from GitHub
devtools::install_github("cheuerde/plotcli")
The easiest way to use the package if you are already familiar with ggplot2
is to configure your ggplot2 object as usual and then simply convert to a plotcli
terminal plot with ggplotcli
:
# Load the plotcli package
library(plotcli)
data(mtcars)
mtcars$cf = as.character(mtcars$cyl)
p = ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = mpg, y = wt, color = cf)) + geom_point()
# print to terminal
ggplotcli(p, braille = FALSE)
