I love the palettes you have. However, ON doing
remotes::install_github('johnmackintosh/rockthemes')

I keep getting the following:
Error: Failed to install 'unknown package' from GitHub:
HTTP error 404.
No commit found for the ref master

Did you spell the repo owner (johnmackintosh) and repo name (rockthemes) correctly?

• If spelling is correct, check that you have the required permissions to access the repo.

Do you have the remotes package installed in R?

Hi, thanks for your comments :)

Looks like remotes is trying to install from the master branch.

Unfortunately, there is no 'master' branch, it's 'main'.

If you update to the latest version of the {remotes} package, it should find the 'main' branch.

See :

Alternatively
remotes::install_github('johnmackintosh/rockthemes@main')

@johnmackintosh .. perfect .. that worked.

However, something occurred to me after is that I need to make a continuous color gradient, and that could not! :( Rather, I do not now how to convert a 10 color scale to a continuous one (n = 256). Any help would be great! Rock and metal has place in science! ;)

@barveaditya
Do you have a reprex you could share?

I can get something to work with the standard 4 colour palettes.
Will try with the ten tone palettes in a bit

library(ggplot2)
library(rockthemes)
 
df <- data.frame(
  x = runif(1000),
  y = runif(1000),
  z1 = rnorm(1000),
  z2 = abs(rnorm(1000)),
  temp = c(1:999, by = 1)
)
 
 
ggplot(df, aes(x, y)) +
  geom_point(aes(colour = temp)) +
  scale_colour_gradientn(colours = rock_palette('nodoubt', 256, type = 'continuous'))

[johnmackintosh]

ggplot(df, aes(x, temp)) +
geom_point(aes(colour = temp)) +
scale_colour_deelite(type = 'continuous') + 
theme_minimal()

closing this one, but need to tweak the individual palettes so #14 awaits
