Dates not showing properly on plotly online
3
The dates of the following plot are not showing correctly when the plot is posted online with plotly.
library(plotly)
library(ggplot2)
# Create data
mydata <- data.frame(x = as.Date(Sys.Date()-1:100), y = runif(100))
# Plot with ggplot
myplot <- ggplot(mydata, aes(x=x, y=y)) +
geom_point()
myplot
# Plotting with plotly (local)
ggplotly(myplot)
The dates are recognized as dates and look fine when plotted locally.
However when I upload the same plot to plotly the dates are transformed to numbers:
# Uploading plot online (api credentials needed)
Sys.setenv("plotly_username"="username")
Sys.setenv("plotly_api_key"="api_key")
api_create(myplot, filename = "Stack Overflow Question")

Link to github issue:
https://github.com/ropensci/plotly/issues/1420
Is this behaviour a bug or am I doing something wrong?

try addingscale_x_date(date_labels="%B")to your ggplot.

@iod Nope, still the same. What this did for me was to show the full names of the months in the local plots but still no change in the online plot.

It's a stretch, and I'm firewalled from uploading things to plotly right now, but maybe replace theas.Datewith as.POSIXct/POSIXlt? Sys.Date is already a date format anyway, so doesn't need as.Date

@iod I tried that also but it didn't work. I know, I putas.Datethere so everyone knows for sure it's a date class :P

Well, unless someone comes up with a solution, I would recommend taking this to the ggplotly github as a potential bug.
