Overview
foxxlab is an R package providing a library of datasets from the Foxx Disrupting Ecology Lab, ranging from plant ecology to social science topics.
Currently, foxxlab offers a variety of datastes including meta-analysis datasets to promote open science and serve as training materials for visualizations and analyses including meta-analyses.
Installation
- Install latest development version from GitHub (requires devtools package):
if (!require("devtools")) {
install.packages("devtools")
}
devtools::install_github("aliciafoxx/foxxlab", dependencies = TRUE, build_vignettes = T)Example
A visualization example of the fk2020b dataset in foxxlab:
library(foxxlab)
library(ggrain)
library(dplyr)
library(ggplot2)
foxxlab::fk2020b |>
dplyr::rename(`height (mm)` = Height_.mm.) |>
ggplot(aes(1, `height (mm)`,
fill = Collection_type)) +
ggrain::geom_rain(alpha = .5) +
theme_classic() +
xlab("variation") +
scale_fill_brewer(palette = 'Dark2')
