#' @description
#'
#' Get the PageRank values for all nodes in the graph.
#'
#' @inheritParams render_graph
#' @param directed If `TRUE` (the default) then directed paths will be
#'   considered for directed graphs. This is ignored for undirected graphs.
#' @param damping The damping factor. The default value is set to `0.85`.
#'
#' @return A data frame with PageRank values for each of the nodes.
