Distribution of Tokens over time

Description

Summarizes the distribution of user-generated tokens over time

Usage

plot_tokens_over_time(
  data,
  names = "all",
  names_col = "Sender",
  starttime = "1960-01-01 00:00",
  endtime = "2200-01-01 00:00",
  plot = "alltime",
  return_data = FALSE,
  exclude_sm = FALSE
)

Arguments

data

A 'WhatsApp' chat log that was parsed with parse_chat with parameters anonymize = FALSE or anonymize = "add".

names

A vector of author names that the plots will be restricted to.

names_col

A column indicated by a string that should be accessed to determine the names. Only needs to be changed when parse_chat used the parameter anon = "add" and the column "Anonymous" should be used. Default is "Sender".

starttime

Datetime that is used as the minimum boundary for exclusion. Is parsed with as.POSIXct. Standard format is "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm". Is interpreted as UTC to be compatible with 'WhatsApp' timestamps.

endtime

Datetime that is used as the maximum boundary for exclusion. Is parsed with as.POSIXct. Standard format is "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm". Is interpreted as UTC to be compatible with 'WhatsApp' timestamps.

plot

Type of plot to be returned. Options are "year", "day", "hour", "heatmap" and "alltime". Default is "alltime".

return_data

If TRUE, returns the subset data frame. Default is FALSE.

exclude_sm

If TRUE, excludes the 'WhatsApp' system messages from the descriptive statistics. Default is FALSE.

Value

A summary of tokens over time. Input will be ordered by TimeOrder column.
