Complex heatmaps are efficient to visualize associations between different
sources of data sets and reveal potential patterns. Here the
**ComplexHeatmap** package provides a highly flexible way to arrange multiple
heatmaps and supports various annotation graphics.
The [**InteractiveComplexHeatmap**](https://github.com/jokergoo/InteractiveComplexHeatmap) package can directly export static complex heatmaps into an interactive Shiny app. Have a try!

## Install
`ComplexHeatmap` is available on [Bioconductor](http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/html/ComplexHeatmap.html), you can install it by:
```r
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly=TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("ComplexHeatmap")
```
If you want the latest version, install it directly from GitHub:
```r
library(devtools)
install_github("jokergoo/ComplexHeatmap")
```
## Usage
Make a single heatmap:
```r
Heatmap(mat, ...)
```
A single Heatmap with column annotations:
```r
ha = HeatmapAnnotation(df = anno1, anno_fun = anno2, ...)
Heatmap(mat, ..., top_annotation = ha)
```
Make a list of heatmaps:
```r
Heatmap(mat1, ...) + Heatmap(mat2, ...)
```
Make a list of heatmaps and row annotations:
```r
ha = HeatmapAnnotation(df = anno1, anno_fun = anno2, ..., which = "row")
Heatmap(mat1, ...) + Heatmap(mat2, ...) + ha
```
