as.igraph.Node

Convert a data.tree structure to an igraph network

Description

This requires the igraph package to be installed. Also, this requires the names of the Nodes to be unique within the data.tree structure.

Usage

as.igraph.Node(
  x,
  vertexAttributes = character(),
  edgeAttributes = character(),
  directed = FALSE,
  direction = c("climb", "descend"),
  ...
)

Arguments

`x`	The root `Node` to convert
`vertexAttributes`	A vector of strings, representing the attributes in the `data.tree` structure to add as attributes to the vertices of the igraph
`edgeAttributes`	A vector of strings, representing the attributes in the `data.tree` structure to add as edge attributes of the igraph
`directed`	Logical scalar, whether or not to create a directed graph.
`direction`	when converting to a network, should the edges point from root to children ("climb") or from child to parent ("descend")?
`...`	Currently unused.

Value

an igraph object

Examples

data(acme)
library(igraph)
ig <- as.igraph(acme, "p", c("level", "isLeaf"))
plot(ig)
