ggpie - A ggplot2 extension to create pie, donut and rose pie plot

Introduction

ggpie aims to create pie (2D and 3D), donut and rose pie plot with the ggplot2 plotting system which implemented the grammar of graphics. It contains five main functions:

ggpie: Create 2D pie plot with single group variable.
ggdonut: Create 2D donut plot with single group variable.
ggnestedpie: Create 2D nested pie plot with two group variables.
ggpie3D: Create 3D pie plot with single group variable.
ggrosepie: Create rose pie plot with single or two group variables.

Installation

You can install the released version of ggpie from CRAN with:

install.packages("ggpie")

Or install the package via the Github repository:

# install.package("remotes")   #In case you have not installed it.
remotes::install_github("showteeth/ggpie")

Pie plot

no label

Pie plot with no label:

# with no label
ggpie(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",label_type = "none")

circle label

circle label and out of pie:

ggpie(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
      label_info = "all", label_type = "circle",
      label_size = 4, label_pos = "out")

circle label and in pie plot, with no split:

ggpie(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
      label_info = "all", label_type = "circle", label_split = NULL,
      label_size = 4, label_pos = "in")

horizon label

horizon label and in pie plot, with no split:

ggpie(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
      label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon", label_split = NULL,
      label_size = 4, label_pos = "in")

horizon label and in pie plot, split with space:

ggpie(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
      label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon",
      label_size = 4, label_pos = "in")

horizon label and out pie plot, with no split:

ggpie(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
      label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon",
      label_size = 4, label_pos = "out" )

adjust threashold

With label_threshold, ggpie will move label below label_threshold to out of pie. In this example, all labels below 10% are moved to out of pie:

ggpie(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
      label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon", label_split = NULL,
      label_size = 4, label_pos = "in", label_threshold = 10)

Donut plot

# with no label
ggdonut(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",label_type = "none")

circle label

ggdonut(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
        label_info = "all", label_type = "circle",
        label_size = 4, label_pos = "out")

        label_size = 4, label_pos = "in")

        label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon", label_split = NULL,
        label_size = 4, label_pos = "in")

ggdonut(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
        label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon",
        label_size = 4, label_pos = "in")

horizon label and out of pie plot, with no split:

ggdonut(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
        label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon", label_split = NULL,
        label_size = 4, label_pos = "out")

horizon label and out of pie plot:

ggdonut(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
        label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon",
        label_size = 4, label_pos = "out")

adjust threashold

With label_threshold, ggpie will move label below label_threshold to out of donut. In this example, all labels below 10% are moved to out of donut:

ggdonut(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full",
        label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon", label_split = NULL,
        label_size = 4, label_pos = "in", label_threshold = 10)

        label_info = "all", label_type = "horizon",
        label_size = 4, label_pos = "in", label_threshold = 10)

3D pie plot

p1= ggpie3D(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full", tilt_degrees = -10, label_size=2) + 
  ggtitle("tilt_degrees = -10") + 
  theme(plot.title = element_text(hjust = 0.5))

p2= ggpie3D(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full", tilt_degrees = -40, label_size=2) + 
  ggtitle("tilt_degrees = -40") + 
  theme(plot.title = element_text(hjust = 0.5))

p3= ggpie3D(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full", tilt_degrees = -10, 
            start_degrees = 60, label_size=2) + 
  ggtitle("start_degrees = 60") + 
  theme(plot.title = element_text(hjust = 0.5))

p4= ggpie3D(data = diamonds, group_key = "cut", count_type = "full", tilt_degrees = -10, 
            start_degrees = 180, label_size=2) + 
  ggtitle("start_degrees = 180") + 
  theme(plot.title = element_text(hjust = 0.5))

cowplot::plot_grid(p1,p2,p3,p4,ncol = 2)

Nested pie/donut plot

It is often the case that we have two categorical variables and then need to plot for both of them, ggnestedpie is designed to deal with this.

inner circle and outer circle

inner circle label and no split, outer circle label and in pie plot

ggnestedpie(data = diamonds, group_key = c("cut", "color"), count_type = "full",
            inner_label_info = "all", inner_label_split = NULL,inner_label_size = 2,
            outer_label_type = "circle", outer_label_pos = "in", outer_label_info = "all")
#> Coordinate system already present. Adding new coordinate system, which will replace the existing one.

inner circle label and no split, outer circle label and in pie plot, remove fraction below 1 of inner pie:

ggnestedpie(data = diamonds, group_key = c("cut", "color"), count_type = "full",
            inner_label_info = "all", inner_label_split = NULL,
            inner_label_threshold = 5, inner_label_size = 2,
            outer_label_type = "circle", outer_label_pos = "in", outer_label_info = "all")
#> Coordinate system already present. Adding new coordinate system, which will replace the existing one.

inner circle label and no split, outer circle label and out of pie plot:

ggnestedpie(data = diamonds, group_key = c("cut", "color"), count_type = "full",
            inner_label_info = "all", inner_label_split = NULL, inner_label_size = 2,
            outer_label_type = "circle", outer_label_pos = "out", outer_label_info = "all")
#> Coordinate system already present. Adding new coordinate system, which will replace the existing one.

inner circle and outer horizon

inner circle label and no split, outer horizon label and out of pie plot, remove fraction below 1 of inner pie:

ggnestedpie(data = diamonds, group_key = c("cut", "color"), count_type = "full",
            inner_label_info = "all", inner_label_split = NULL,
            inner_label_threshold = 1, inner_label_size = 2,
            outer_label_type = "horizon", outer_label_pos = "out", outer_label_info = "all")
#> Coordinate system already present. Adding new coordinate system, which will replace the existing one.

inner circle label and no split, outer horizon label and in pie plot, remove fraction below 1 of inner pie, adjust fraction below 10 to out of pie of outer pie plot:

ggnestedpie(data = diamonds, group_key = c("cut", "color"), count_type = "full",
            inner_label_info = "all", inner_label_split = NULL,
            inner_label_threshold = 1, inner_label_size = 2,
            outer_label_type = "horizon", outer_label_pos = "in",
            outer_label_info = "all", outer_label_threshold = 10)
#> Coordinate system already present. Adding new coordinate system, which will replace the existing one.

blank between plot

ggnestedpie(data = diamonds, group_key = c("cut", "color"), count_type = "full", 
            r0 = 0.5, r1 = 1.5, r2 = 2.6,inner_label_info = "all", inner_label_split = NULL,
            inner_label_threshold = 1, inner_label_size = 2,
            outer_label_type = "horizon", outer_label_pos = "in",
            outer_label_info = "all", outer_label_threshold = 10)
#> Coordinate system already present. Adding new coordinate system, which will replace the existing one.
