Helper functions to create and filter igraph objects

manage_igraph_object.Rmd

codexplor offering functions to manage igraph object : turn an edgelist into an igraph object, filter some nodes accordingly to their indegrees or outdegrees, etc.

Once you have a network such as the network of internal dependancies within a project computed by codexplor::construct_corpus (see the vignette of construct_corpus()).

    net <- construct_corpus(repos = "clement-lvd/codexplor")
    # by default, codexplor deal with R project

  • Turn your Citations Network into a directed igraph network with .

      netig <- codexplor::get_igraph_from_df(net$functions.network)

  • Once you have an igraph object, extract the egonetwork of a precise function with .

    filter_net <- filter_igraph_egonetwork(netig, "an_interesting_function")

  • Turn it into an interactive networkD3 dataviz with .

        dataviz_filtered <- get_networkd3_from_igraph(filter_net)

    or pass a citations.network data.frame
    dataviz <- get_networkd3_from_igraph(net$functions.network)

  • And tweak the legend of the interactive networkD3 dataviz with .

        move_networkd3_legend(dataviz, x_pos = 0.4, y_pos = 1, orientation = "horizontal")
