BrattleExtras: An R Package for Handy Brattle Functions

Introduction

This package is designed to provide R functions and other objects commonly used in Brattle projects. Currently, the primary use is for implementing Brattle style in ggplot figures.

None of the objects in the package contain privileged or confidential information.

Contributing

All staff members are invited to submit objects for inclusion. To make a submission:

• Submit the object
• Submit a working example
• Ensure that the object and example are NOT privileged or confidential.

These materials can be e-mailed to Charlie Gibbons. These objects should be broadly useful at Brattle, rather than fulfill a niche need. If accepted for inclusion, you will be asked to complete a simple help file for the package documentation and submit the code and documentation to the Github repository.

Installation

To install the package, first install devtools as you normally would, then load the package. Install BrattleExtras using devtools::install_github('Brattle/BrattleExtras'). If this doesn't work, download a zip file of this repository, then install using devtools::install_local('<path to zip file>') Add build_vignettes = TRUE to the installation call to create the vignette.

Examples and documentation

See the vignette in the package for examples of usage. You can access the vignette using RShowDoc("vignette", package = "BrattleExtras").
