I need parallel coordinates plot with interactivity in shiny. This is the plot that I want and this is a solution of producing rCharts in shiny.

  • You can make this kind of plot with `ggplot2` quite easily, and `shiny` can work with `ggplot2`. So the answer to your question is yes, you can make this kind of plot using Shiny. To get a more useful answer, please narrow down your question to a specific problem. Right now your question is simply too vague. – Paul Hiemstra Nov 08 '13 at 09:47
  • The key thing here is interactivity, which you can not achieve with `ggplot2` + `shiny`. – danas.zuokas Nov 08 '13 at 09:50
  • Your question is not clear that this is what you want. Only after reading the two links your provide, one can deduce this. Making this explicit in your question makes it more clear. – Paul Hiemstra Nov 08 '13 at 09:57
  • Post your question on http://github.com/ramnathv/rCharts. rCharts does provide bindings for d3js based parallel coordinates plot. – Ramnath Nov 18 '13 at 16:03

If you need interactivity, have a look at either ggvis or D3.js. ggvis is an R based solution, and D3.js uses Javascript. The first is still quite experimental, D3 is already very mature and can produce very nice interactive graphs (rendered client-side). This would whoever mean you need to learn JavaScript.

  • I need parallel coordinates plot, so `ggvis` is not an option. And yes, I do not intend to learn JavaScript. – danas.zuokas Nov 08 '13 at 11:07
  • I do not know of another solution except `ggvis` or directly using `JavaScript` that can get you both the parallel coordinates plot and the interactivity you require. – Paul Hiemstra Nov 08 '13 at 12:25
