Obtain a vector of node ID values from a graph object or
a node data frame. An optional filter by node attribute can limit the set
of node ID values returned.
Usage
get_nodes(x, node_attr = NULL, match = NULL)
Arguments
x
either a graph object of class dgr_graph that is created
using create_graph or a node data frame.
node_attr
an optional character vector of node attribute values for
filtering the node ID values returned.
match
an option to provide a logical expression with a comparison
operator (>, <, ==, or !=) followed by a number
for numerical filtering, or, a character string for filtering the edges
returned through string matching.
Value
a vector of node ID values.
Examples
## Not run:
# Before getting node ID values, create a simple graph
nodes <-
create_nodes(nodes = c("a", "b", "c", "d"),
type = "letter",
color = c("red", "green", "grey", "blue"),
value = c(3.5, 2.6, 9.4, 2.7))
graph <-
create_graph(nodes_df = nodes)
# Get a vector of all nodes in a graph
get_nodes(graph)
#> [1] "a" "b" "c" "d"
# Get a vector of node ID values from a node data frame
get_nodes(nodes)
#> [1] "a" "b" "c" "d"
# Get a vector of node ID values using a numeric
# comparison (i.e., all nodes with 'value' attribute
# greater than 3)
get_nodes(graph,
node_attr = "value",
match = "> 3")
#> [1] "a" "c"
# Get a vector of node ID values using a match
# pattern (i.e., all nodes with 'color' attribute
# of "green")
get_nodes(graph,
node_attr = "color",
match = "green")
#> [1] "b"
