select_edges_by_edge_id {DiagrammeR}R Documentation

Select edges in a graph using edge ID values

Description

Select edges in a graph object of class dgr_graph using edge ID values.

Usage

select_edges_by_edge_id(graph, edges, set_op = "union")

Arguments

graph

a graph object of class dgr_graph.

edges

a vector of edge IDs for the selection of edges present in the graph.

set_op

the set operation to perform upon consecutive selections of graph edges This can either be as a union (the default), as an intersection of selections with intersect, or, as a difference on the previous selection, if it exists.

Value

a graph object of class dgr_graph.

Examples

# Create a graph with 5 nodes
graph <-
  create_graph() %>%
  add_path(5)

# Create a graph selection by selecting edges
# associated the edge IDs `1` and `2`
graph <-
  graph %>%
  select_edges_by_edge_id(1:2)

# Get the selection of edges
graph %>% get_selection()
#> [1] 1 2

# Perform another selection of edges, with edge
# IDs `1`, `2`, and `4`
graph <-
  graph %>%
  clear_selection() %>%
  select_edges_by_edge_id(c(1, 2, 4))

# Get the selection of edges
graph %>% get_selection
#> [1] 1 2 4

# Get a fraction of the edges selected over all
# the edges in the graph
graph %>%
{
  l <- get_selection(.) %>%
    length(.)
  e <- edge_count(.)
  l/e
}
#> [1] 0.75
