graph |
A graph object of class |
table |
Either a path to a CSV file, or, a data frame object. |
label_col |
An option to apply a column of data in the table as |
type_col |
An option to apply a column of data in the table as |
set_type |
An optional string to apply a |
drop_cols |
An optional column selection statement for dropping columns
from the external table before inclusion as attributes in the graph's
internal node data frame. Several columns can be dropped by name using the
syntax |
A graph object of class dgr_graph.
