Overview

About

Maintained by Zaynab HammoudCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Issues ↗

Allows the user to create graphs with multiple layers. The user can also modify the layers, the nodes, and the edges. The graph can also be visualized. Zaynab Hammoud and Frank Kramer (2018) doi:10.3390/genes9110519. More about multilayered graphs and their usage can be found in our review paper: Zaynab Hammoud and Frank Kramer (2020) doi:10.1186/s41044-020-00046-0.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

install.packages("mully", 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("frankkramer-lab/mully")

Development version from frankkramer-lab/mully. 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-mully

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

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-mully

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

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