Displaying ggplot2 graphs from R in Jupyter

Question

When I create a plot in Jupyter using the ggplot2 R package, I get a link to the chart that says \"View PDF\" instead of the chart being presented inline.

Answer 1

You can show the graphs inline with this option.

options(jupyter.plot_mimetypes = 'image/png')

You can also produce pdf files as you would regularly in R, e.g.

pdf("test.pdf")
ggplot(data.frame(a=rnorm(100,1,10)),aes(a))+geom_histogram()
dev.off()
