community_colors: Creating Color Attribute For Network Communities

In agoutsmedt/networkflow: Functions For A Workflow To Manipulate Networks

Creating Color Attribute For Network Communities

Description

This function takes as an input a tidygraph graph, with a column with a community identifier for each node and each edge. It attributes to each community a color, depending on a palette chosen. If the two nodes connected by an edge have a different community, the function mixes the color of the two communities.

Usage

community_colors(graph, palette, community_column = "Com_ID")

Arguments

graph	A tidygraph graph
palette	The palette to be used for attributing colors to communities. If you use a palette with less color than the total number of communities, you will have communities represented by the same color in your visualisation.
community_column	The name of the column with the community identifier/number. By defautl "Com_ID", as it is the name of the column when you use the leiden_workflow() function for detecting communities.

Value

The same tidygraph object but with a new color column in the nodes side, for each community, and a new color_edges column in the edges side.
