getDependencies: getDependencies

Description

Returns information about dependencies of a madrat-based calc- read- or full-function.

getDependencies(
  name,
  direction = "in",
  graph = NULL,
  type = NULL,
  self = FALSE,
  ...
)

name: name of the function to be analyzed
direction: Character string, either “in”, “out”, "both", “full”, "din" or "dout". If “in” all sources feeding into the function are listed. If “out” consumer of the function are listed. If “both” the union of "in" and "out" is returned. If "full" the full network this function is connected to is shown, including indirect connections to functions which neither source nor consume the given function but serve as sources to other consumer functions. "din" and "dout" (short for "direct in" and "direct out") behave like "in" and "out" but only show direct calls in or from the function (ignoring the network of functions attached to it).
graph: A madrat graph as returned by getMadratGraph. Will be created with getMadratGraph if not provided.
type: type filter. Only dependencies of that type will be returned. Currently available types are "calc", "read" and "tool"
self: boolean defining whether the function itself, which is analyzed, should be included in the output, or not
...: Additional arguments for getMadratGraph in case that no graph is provided (otherwise ignored)
