create a list of plots cleanly with extra pdf functionality

print_plots(.ggplot_list, .start_page_number = NULL, .start_break = TRUE,
  .end_break = TRUE)

Arguments

.ggplot_list	list of ggplot plots
.start_page_number	pdf-only starting page number for plots
.start_break	whether to add a page break before starting to print plots
.end_break	whether to add a page break after the plot output

Details

Especially for pdf, this can allow the generation of clean pdf pages with only plots, no code, warnings, etc. for all pages related to the plots. In addition, by controlling the start number, you can further trim the pdf to slice out the extra pages generated from the output but keep a nicely numbered plot appendix

Examples

# NOT RUN {
library(dplyr)
library(PKPDmisc)

# given we may only plot a subset of individuals per plot
# and generate multiple plots, lets split the dataframe 
list_of_ids <- sd_oral_richpk %>% capitalize_names() %>%
mutate(plotnum = ids_per_plot(ID)) %>% # default 9 per plot
split(.$plotnum)

# now we want to plot each subplot
plot_list <- list_of_ids %>%
lapply(function(df) {
 df %>%
   ggplot(aes(x = TIME, y = CONC, group = ID)) +
   geom_line() + facet_wrap(~ID)
})

# to print these out (with one plot per page on pdf)
print_plots(plot_list)
# }
