DiagrammeR: R + mermaid.js

In DiagrammeR: Graph/Network Visualization

R + mermaid.js

Description

Make diagrams in R using viz.js or mermaid.js with infrastructure provided by htmlwidgets.

Usage

DiagrammeR(diagram = "", type = "mermaid", ...)

Arguments

diagram	The diagram in graphviz or mermaid format, or, a file (as a connection or file name) containing a diagram specification. The recommended filename extensions are .gv and .mmd for the Graphviz and the mermaid diagram specifications, respectively. If no diagram is provided (diagram = "") then the function will assume that a diagram will be provided by htmltools::tags() and DiagrammeR is just being used for dependency injection.
type	A string, either mermaid (default) or grViz indicating the type of diagram spec and the desired parser/renderer.
...	Any other parameters to pass to grViz or mermaid

Value

An object of class htmlwidget that will intelligently print itself into HTML in a variety of contexts including the R console, within R Markdown documents, and within Shiny output bindings.
