Overview

About

Maintained by Mauro CastroFirst published 2024-02-0313 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

An interface for rendering 'igraph' objects as 'ggplot2' graphics within a normalized coordinate space. 'RGraphSpace' implements new geometries that treat a graph as a single coherent object, synchronizing node and edge layers under standard aesthetic mappings. Node features are resolved on demand, supporting high-dimensional data without expanding node tables. Spatial alignment is available at the pixel level, with node coordinates anchored to pixel centers through a half-pixel offset, enabling precise node positioning over external reference frames such as images and maps.

Install

BioconductorR (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

BiocManager::install("RGraphSpace")

Installs the current Bioconductor release. Requires the BiocManager package.

install.packages("RGraphSpace", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("sysbiolab/RGraphSpace")

Development version from sysbiolab/RGraphSpace. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-rgraphspace

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-RGraphSpace

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-RGraphSpace

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
