The sassy system of functions also supports reports with graphics. Plots from the popular ggplot2 package can be added to a report. The following example illustrates such a report.

Program

Note the following about this example:

  • The plots are created using ggplot2 and the create_plot() function.
  • The plots are added to the report with the add_content() function, just like the tables in the previous examples.
  • The reporter package allows you to add multiple pieces of content to the same report.
  • Titles, footnotes, and other report enhancements are added to the figure just like previous examples.
