Create interactive polygons from a reference map

The geometry is based on ggplot2::geom_map(). See the documentation for those functions for more details.

Usage

geom_map_interactive(...)

Arguments

...

arguments passed to base function, plus any of the interactive_parameters.

Details for interactive geom functions

The interactive parameters can be supplied with two ways:

• As aesthetics with the mapping argument (via ggplot2::aes()). In this way they can be mapped to data columns and apply to a set of geometries.

• As plain arguments into the geom_*_interactive function. In this way they can be set to a scalar value.

Examples

# add interactive maps to a ggplot -------
library(ggplot2)
library(ggiraph)

crimes <- data.frame(state = tolower(rownames(USArrests)), USArrests)

# create tooltips and onclick events
states_ <- sprintf("<p>%s</p>",
                   as.character(crimes$state) )
table_ <- paste0(
  "<table><tr><td>UrbanPop</td>",
  sprintf("<td>%.0f</td>", crimes$UrbanPop),
  "</tr><tr>",
  "<td>Assault</td>",
  sprintf("<td>%.0f</td>", crimes$Assault),
  "</tr></table>"
)

onclick <- sprintf(
  "window.open(\"%s%s\")",
  "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/",
  as.character(crimes$state)
)
