How to supply variable names as strings in fct_reorder within ggplot code?

问题

I want to create the geom_col chart by supplying the variable names as strings. I know the aes_string does that in the ggplot code. However, I am not sure how to handle the variables supplied in the fct_reorder to order the bars. Here is my wip code.

I want to convert this:

mpg %>% 
  ggplot() + 
  geom_col(aes(x = cty, y = fct_reorder(drv, cty, .fun = mean, na.rm = T), fill = drv), width = 0.8) +
  theme_classic()

into a function,

chart_fun <- function(x, y) {
  mpg %>%
    ggplot() +
    geom_col(aes_string(x = x, y = fct_reorder(y, x, .fun = mean, na.rm = T), fill = y), width = 0.8) +
    theme_classic()
}

chart_fun(x = "cty", y = "drv")

but I am getting an error, "Error: 1 components of ... were not used. We detected these problematic arguments: * na.rm Did you misspecify an argument?"

Help me fix this code.

If you want to pass variables as strings you could also make use of the .data pronoun which allows you to stick with aes():

library(ggplot2)
library(dplyr)
library(forcats)

chart_fun <- function(x, y) {
  mpg %>%
    ggplot() +
    geom_col(aes(x = .data[[x]], y = fct_reorder(.data[[y]], .data[[x]], .fun = mean, na.rm = T), fill = .data[[y]]), width = 0.8) +
    theme_classic()
}

chart_fun(x = "cty", y = "drv")
