NetworkReporters: Network Reporters for Packages
In pkgnet: Get Network Representation of an R Package

Description Public Methods Public Fields

pkgnet defines several package reporter R6 classes that model a particular network aspect of a package as a graph. These network reporter classes are extended from AbstractGraphReporter, which itself extends the AbstractPackageReporter with graph-modeling-related functionality.

This article describes the additional fields added by the AbstractGraphReporter class definition.

calculate_default_measures()

Calculates the default node and network measures for this reporter.
Returns:
- Self, invisibly.

nodes: a data.table, containing information about the nodes of the network the reporter is analyzing. The node column acts the identifier. Read-only.
edges: a data.table, containing information about the edge connections of the network the reporter is analyzing. Each row is one edge, and the columns SOURCE and TARGET specify the node identifiers. Read-only.
network_measures: a list, containing any measures of the network calculated by the reporter. Read-only.
pkg_graph: a graph model object. See DirectedGraph for additional documentation. Read-only.
graph_viz: a graph visualization object. A visNetwork::visNetwork object. Read-only.
layout_type: a character string, the current layout type for the graph visualization. Can be assigned a new valid layout type value. Use use grep("^layout_\\S", getNamespaceExports("igraph"), value = TRUE) to see valid options.
