Gapminder Example from "R for Data Science"

• One row per group
• Per-group data and models as "list-columns"

country_plot <- function(data, model) {
  figure(xlim = c(1948, 2011),
    ylim = c(10, 95), tools = NULL) %>%
    ly_points(year, lifeExp, data = data, hover = data) %>%
    ly_abline(model)
}

country_plot(by_country$data[[1]],
  by_country$model[[1]])

Plotting the Data and Model Fit for a Group

We'll use the rbokeh package to make a plot function and apply it to the first row of our data

by_country <- by_country %>%
  mutate(plot = map2_plot(data, model, country_plot))

by_country
