dodgr_paths_expand: Expand contracted paths back on to full, uncontracted graphs.

In dodgr: Distances on Directed Graphs

Expand contracted paths back on to full, uncontracted graphs.

Description

Paths calculated with dodgr_paths on graphs contracted with dodgr_contract_graph trace and return only the intervening junction vertices. This function expands contracted paths back onto full sequences of edges of original, uncontracted graphs.

Usage

dodgr_paths_expand(paths, graph, graph_c, edge_map = NULL)

Arguments

paths	A nested list of paths between pairs of (origin, destination) points, generated by dodgr_paths on a graph previously contracted with dodgr_contract_graph, so that paths [[i]] [[j]] is the path between the i-th origin and j-th destination points. Each individual path may be given either as a character vector of vertex IDs (as returned by dodgr_paths with vertices = TRUE), or as an integer vector of row indices into graph_c (as returned with vertices = FALSE). paths should generally carry the vertices attribute attached by dodgr_paths, used here to determine the type of the return value (see 'Value' below); if that attribute is absent, the type of the first non-NULL path is used instead. Individual paths which are NULL or which trace no transitions are ignored.
graph	The full, uncontracted graph from which graph_c was generated with dodgr_contract_graph.
graph_c	The contracted graph on which paths was calculated.
edge_map	Optional edge map generated internally by dodgr_contract_graph, and used to map contracted edges back on to their corresponding sequences of edges in graph. If not given, this is extracted directly from the dodgr cache.

Value

A nested list of the same structure as paths, in which result [[i]] [[j]] is the expansion of paths [[i]] [[j]] on to the full, uncontracted sequence of edges of graph, ordered from start to end of that path. Each expanded path is returned in a form structurally identical to the corresponding input: a character vector of vertex IDs from graph if paths [[i]] [[j]] was itself a character vector (that is, if paths was generated with vertices = TRUE), or an integer vector of row indices into graph if paths [[i]] [[j]] was an integer vector (vertices = FALSE). Entries for which the corresponding input path is NULL or has no transitions are returned as NULL. The result also carries the same vertices attribute as paths.
