set_node_attrs: Set node attributes

Description

From a graph object of class dgr_graph or a node data frame, set node attribute properties for one or more nodes.

Usage

set_node_attrs(x, node_attr, values, nodes = NULL)

Arguments

x

either a graph object of class dgr_graph or a node data frame.

node_attr

the name of the attribute to set.

values

the values to be set for the chosen attribute for the chosen nodes.

nodes

an optional vector of node IDs for filtering the list of nodes present in the graph.

Value

either a graph object of class dgr_graph or a node data frame, depending on what type of object was supplied to x.

Examples
