I'm using sparkline plots in a DT table as outlayed here: https://leonawicz.github.io/HtmlWidgetExamples/ex_dt_sparkline.html
Boiled down dummy example as follows
library(data.table)
library(DT)
library(sparkline)
hist.A<-rnorm(100)
hist.B<-rnorm(100)
hist.C<-rnorm(100)
current.A<-rnorm(1)
current.B<-rnorm(1)
current.C<-rnorm(1)
#whisker should show full range of data
boxval.A<-paste(quantile(hist.A,probs=c(0,0.25,0.5,0.75,1)),collapse = ",")
boxval.B<-paste(quantile(hist.B,probs=c(0,0.25,0.5,0.75,1)),collapse = ",")
boxval.C<-paste(quantile(hist.C,probs=c(0,0.25,0.5,0.75,1)),collapse = ",")
data<-data.frame(Variable=c("A","B","C"),Current=c(current.A,current.B,current.C),boxplot=c(boxval.A,boxval.B,boxval.C))
data$boxWithTarget<-paste(data$boxplot,data$Current,Sep=",")
cd <- list(list(targets = 2, render = JS("function(data, type, full){ return '<span class=sparkSamples>' + data + '</span>' }")))
line_string <- "type: 'line', lineColor: 'black', fillColor: '#ccc', highlightLineColor: 'orange', highlightSpotColor: 'orange'"
box_string <- "type: 'box', raw:true, showOutliers:false,lineColor: 'black', whiskerColor: 'black', outlierFillColor: 'black', outlierLineColor: 'black', medianColor: 'black', boxFillColor: 'orange', boxLineColor: 'black'"
cb = JS("function (oSettings, json) {\n $('.sparkSeries:not(:has(canvas))').sparkline('html', { ",
line_string, " });\n $('.sparkSamples:not(:has(canvas))').sparkline('html', { ",
box_string, " });\n}")
d <- datatable(data.table(data), rownames = FALSE, options = list(columnDefs = cd,
fnDrawCallback = cb))
d$dependencies <- append(d$dependencies, htmlwidgets:::getDependency("sparkline"))
d
I want to use the target value function in the boxplots http://omnipotent.net/jquery.sparkline/#boxplot
As the sparkline call is defined on column level I can not pass on individual target levels as argument.
So what I would need is a wrapper function for the sparkline call that takes as an argument the 6 values defined in the column boxWithTarget (the last value being the target value) and calls on the sparkline function. In Dummy code:
sparkline_target(input,...) {
v=strsplit(input, ",")
tar=v[6]
val<-paste(v[1:5],collapse=",")
sparkline(val,target=tar,..)
}
To my (limited) understanding this wrapper function would need to be defined on the java level. As I have no idea how to achieve this any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks!
