The goal of **paletteer** is to be a comprehensive collection of color palettes in R using a common interface. Think of it as the "caret of palettes".

**Notice** This version is not backwards compatible with versions <= 0.2.1. Please refer to the end of the readme for breaking changes

## Installation

You can install the released version of **paletteer** from [CRAN](https://CRAN.R-project.org) with:

``` r
install.packages("paletteer")
```

If you want the development version instead then install directly from GitHub:

```{r, eval=FALSE}
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("EmilHvitfeldt/paletteer")
```

## Palettes

The palettes are divided into 2 groups; *discrete* and *continuous*. For discrete palette you have the choice between the *fixed width palettes* and *dynamic palettes*. Most common of the two are the fixed width palettes which have a set amount of colors which doesn't change when the number of colors requested vary like the following palettes:

```{r echo=FALSE}
library(paletteer)
pals::pal.bands(
  paletteer_d("nord::frost"),
  paletteer_d("dutchmasters::milkmaid"),
  paletteer_d("LaCroixColoR::Lime"), 
  main = "Fixed width palettes",
  labels = c("nord\n frost", "dutchmasters\n milkmaid", "LaCroixColoR\n Lime")
  )
```

on the other hand we have the dynamic palettes where the colors of the palette depend on the number of colors you need like the `green.pal` palette from the `cartography` package:

```{r echo=FALSE}
pals::pal.bands(
  paletteer_dynamic("cartography::green.pal", 2),
  paletteer_dynamic("cartography::green.pal", 5),
  paletteer_dynamic("cartography::green.pal", 8),
  main = "Dynamic palettes",
  labels = c("cartography\n green.pal\n n = 2",
             "cartography\n green.pal\n n = 5",
             "cartography\n green.pal\n n = 6")
  )
```

Lastly we have the continuous palettes which provides as many colors as you need for a smooth transition of color:

```{r echo=FALSE}
library(paletteer)
pals::pal.bands(
  paletteer_c("viridis::inferno", 256),
  paletteer_c("grDevices::terrain.colors", 256),
  paletteer_c("scico::berlin", 256), 
  main = "continuous palettes",
  labels = c("viridis\n inferno", "grDevices\n terrain.colors", "scico\n berlin")
  )
```

This package includes `r nrow(palettes_c_names) + nrow(palettes_d_names) + nrow(palettes_dynamic_names)` palettes from `r length(unique(c(palettes_c_names$package, palettes_d_names$package, palettes_dynamic_names$package))) - 2` different packages and information about these can be found in the following data.frames: `palettes_c_names`, `palettes_d_names` and `palettes_dynamic_names`. Additionally this [github repo](https://github.com/EmilHvitfeldt/r-color-palettes) showcases all the palettes included in the package and more.

## Examples

All the palettes can be accessed from the 3 functions `paletteer_c()`, `paletteer_d()` and `paletteer_dynamic()` using the by using the syntax packagename::palettename.

```{r}
paletteer_c("scico::berlin", n = 10)
paletteer_d("nord::frost")
paletteer_dynamic("cartography::green.pal", 5)
```

All of the functions now also support tab completion to easily access the hundreds of choices

## ggplot2 scales

Lastly the package also includes scales for `ggplot2` using the same standard interface

```{r}
library(ggplot2)

ggplot(iris, aes(Sepal.Length, Sepal.Width, color = Species)) +
  geom_point() +
  scale_color_paletteer_d("nord::aurora")
```


## Palette explorer

A [web application](https://r-graph-gallery.com/color-palette-finder) is available to quickly explore the available palettes.

[![](man/figures/colorPaletteFinder.gif)](https://r-graph-gallery.com/color-palette-finder)


## Breaking changes

In version <= 0.2.1 a palatte was selected by specifying a `package` and `palette` argument like so

```{r, eval=FALSE}
paletteer_c(package = "nord", palette = "frost")
```

After version 0.2.1 palettes are selected using the syntax `"packagename::palettename"` inside the palette functions.

```{r, eval=FALSE}
paletteer_c("nord::frost")
```

## Special thanks

- [Hadley Wickham](https://github.com/hadley) For helpful code improvements.

## Included packages

**paletteer** includes palettes from the following packages:

```{r, echo=FALSE}
p_df <- paletteer_packages
p_df$Github <- ifelse(!is.na(paletteer_packages$Github),
                            paste0("[", paletteer_packages$Github, " - ", 
                            paletteer_packages$github_ver, "](https://github.com/", 
                            paletteer_packages$Github, ")"),
                            "-")

p_df$CRAN <- ifelse(paletteer_packages$CRAN,
  paste0("[", paletteer_packages$CRAN_ver, "](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=", paletteer_packages$Name, 
                    ")"),
  "-")
p_df$CRAN[p_df$Name == "grDevices"] <- p_df$CRAN_ver[p_df$Name == "grDevices"]

knitr::kable(p_df[c("Name", "Github", "CRAN")])
```
