I've tried the experimental or not experimental versions of vqv, richardjtelford and vangalamaheshh github ggbiplot sites without success

I've the same problem downloading ggbiplot. Hoping for a solution here. Are there alternative ways of plotting the elipses and the circle?

I had a problems with installation too!

I was able to install the package with the option force= TRUE
But now, this is not working with any of the alternatives

Very strange: now it works after R restarting! (R 3.5.2)
And after manual 'scales' instalation...

library(openxlsx)

library(reshape2)

library(plyr)

library(scales)

library(ggplot2)

library(devtools)

library(grid)

Still not working for me with Potamophylax suggestion
It is surprising the kind of error it throws
"Error: package 'datasets' in options("defaultPackages") was not found

The datasets package is a base package, and cannot be either installed or updated

If I preload the datasets package, is not working either...

Can confirm the non-experimental version installed successfully for me using the instructions from Readme.md.

I had to use

install_github("vqv/ggbiplot", force = TRUE)

and not updating other packages.

I installed with the given instructions, checking before I had installed the packages quoted by Potamophylax and I had no problem, even to work, with R version 3.5.2 too.

After fully updating my linux R, and having R version 3.5.3, I eventually could install ggbiplot by using

library(devtools)
install_github("vqv/ggbiplot", force = TRUE)

Use this command to install, for new versions of R:

install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("vqv/ggbiplot")

Hi,

I am having issue in installing ggbiplot via githubinstall in R 3.6.1. The error it is giving is pasted below:

you can do this without the ggbiplot
for example
biplot(mtcars.pca) it works

Has anyone installed ggbiplot under R 3.6.0.? I can't get it to work on my new computer.

I've tried both of these suggestions:
install_github("vqv/ggbiplot", force = TRUE)

install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("vqv/ggbiplot")

Here are the messages I get:

Installing package into ‘C:/Users/KarenV/Documents/R/win-library/3.6’

Any suggestions would be most helpful.

this is the most disgusting package to install. After updating R to 3.6.1, there is not an easy way to install the package. I am facing the same problems again, and the methods herein described are not working again

But this is not ggbiplot. biplot is the regular function that does not use the nice graphics implemented into ggplot2

Hey guys! My colleague was also struggling with this so I helped him figure it out.

You don't need to get functions from packages for them to work. You can entre them manually.

What I suggested he did is to go to https://github.com/vqv/ggbiplot
and download the zip file ("clone or download"). In the zip file you'll find a folder called R. In this folder are two R scripts.
Open these two and just run them.
This is the manual way of creatin gthe function ggbiplot.

Hopefully I explained it well enough.

Kind regards!
Dumas

As Dumas suggested, just use the two functions there

source("path to /ggbiplot-master/R/ggbiplot.r")
source("path to /ggbiplot-master/R/ggscreeplot.r")

Pretty normal since when you do : library(ggbiplot)
you get

Loading required package: ggplot2
Loading required package: plyr
Loading required package: scales
Loading required package: grid

so it does need it. Altho, I guess it could ask you to install it explicitly since it's a dependency...

Only problem I got installing it with remotes::install_github("vqv/ggbiplot") was that it ask me to update packages and doing so gives me an error saying it can't remove the previous install of those package. So I have to close R, delete the package manually in it's folder, and redo the install ignoring the updates. Don't know if that error is related tho, because it does that for all packages I install using remotes.

(Installing on R 3.6.3)

Use this command to install, for new versions of R:

install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("vqv/ggbiplot")

Hi all,

I downloaded the functions and loaded them into my script, worked nicely.
But still, am a bit sceptical about the way it works, as the exemple provided on the GitHub platform where I took the functions are not working.

Let say i have my dateframe "my_data" which as on factor with three levels (groups) and 4 response variables (numerical).
the function 'prcomp' will only take numercial object. So, to use it i need to write the following:

PCA_results = prcomp(my_data[,-1], center = T, scale = T)

Then, when I use ggbiplot, I want to color my points by their respective groups. But since ggbiplot takes only prcomp objects, and that my object PCA_results contains only the scores of the PCA, and no grouping factor, I can't group anything.

The exemple given by the creators of the function is the following:
wine.pca <- prcomp(wine, scale. = TRUE)
ggbiplot(wine.pca, obs.scale = 1, var.scale = 1,
groups = wine.class, ellipse = TRUE, circle = TRUE) +
scale_color_discrete(name = '') +
theme(legend.direction = 'horizontal', legend.position = 'top')

So for me, when copying exactly this code, I get an error back saying prcomp can't use the object wine (not numercial only), and when correcting it, then it says that wine.classe does not exist.

I m not a fan of this package at all. So far I managed to make a biplot using ggplot only, but I am trying to figure a way to have the eigendvectors on the graph too. Any idea how to do it?
by adding a geom_segment() maybe?

thanks for your help !

row2x commented Oct 21, 2020

When you instantiate the wine data, it also creates a separate list of Factors called wine.class. I have used prcomp/ggbiplot on my own data. First, remove any Factors from your original dataframe to run PCA, and then create a separate vector with a Factor and assign to the parameter 'groups'.

The library example works fine for me under R3.6.3:
library(ggbiplot)
data(wine) # Verify with str(wine) and str(wine.class)
wine.pca <- prcomp(wine, scale. = TRUE)
ggbiplot(wine.pca, obs.scale = 1, var.scale = 1,
groups = wine.class, ellipse = TRUE, circle = TRUE) +
scale_color_discrete(name = '') +
theme(legend.direction = 'horizontal', legend.position = 'top')

Good luck

I successfully installed ggbiplot by running this command first,
Sys.setenv(R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS="true")
then install from
