animint2 Gallery

animint2 is an R package for animated and interactive data visualizations. This repository is for the animint2 gallery, which showcases examples of what animint2 can do. Additions to the gallery are encouraged.

How to Contribute

Make a Data Viz

  1. First, run install.packages("animint2") in R to get the most recent version from CRAN (>= 2023.11.21). The most recent versions support the source option for the animint() function, which is required to publish an animint to a gallery.
  2. Create a data viz = animint(ggplots, title="data viz title", source="https://link.to/your_code.R") object with options:
  • title: Replace the example text with a string describing the data viz.
  • source: Replace the example URL with the URL of your data viz source code.
  1. Run animint2pages(viz, "new_github_repo") to create a new GitHub repository with your viz deployed in the gh-pages branch. For more detailed instructions, see the subsection about publishing to GitHub Pages in Chapter 5 of The animint2 Manual.
  2. Take a screenshot of the data viz, name it Capture.PNG, and add it to the gh-pages branch of that repo.

Add your Data Viz to the Gallery

In the following instructions, replace YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME with your GitHub username.

  1. If you have not yet forked the gallery, then fork the gallery. Make sure your fork includes the gh-pages branch. This makes a copy of the animint2 gallery and places it on your list of repositories.
  2. If you have not yet cloned your fork, then clone it with git clone git@github.com:YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME/gallery ~/R/gallery. This copies your fork from GitHub onto your local machine.
  3. Add YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME/new_github_repo on a new line in repos.txt. The new_github_repo should be the same name that you used when you published a data viz animint2pages.
  4. Run animint2::update_gallery() to update and push the changes to the gh-pages branch of your fork.
  5. After a few minutes, your updated gallery will appear on https://YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME.github.io/gallery/.
  6. Open a pull request from your fork's gh-pages branch (head/compare) into the animint/gallery gh-pages branch (base) by clicking the "Contribute" button on your fork's GitHub web page or via a URL like https://github.com/animint/gallery/compare/gh-pages...YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME:gallery:gh-pages?expand=1.
  7. Make sure your pull request description has a link to the rendered version of your fork of the gallery, such as https://YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME.github.io/gallery/. That way, reviewers can quickly preview what the new gallery would look like after merging the pull request.

For more info about galleries, go to Chapter 5 of The animint2 Manual and read the subsection on organizing animints in a gallery.
