R? #1

Closed ConceptDelta closed 9 years ago

ConceptDelta commented 9 years ago

It's hard to tell what software is being searched. If it's not included, could you add in R?

Sure! What would be the best place to get list of R packages and their dependencies? Is it CRAN or something else?

ConceptDelta commented 9 years ago

Awesome.

Yeah, CRAN is probably your best bet, though GitHub has a bunch as well. I attached a paper I'm working on with my student that examines the ggplot2 R package.

If you're interested, I'd be happy to help you turn the R visualization into a journal publication.

Cheers, Roger

MRAN is also a good place to grab dependencies from, since they have them already parsed. https://mran.revolutionanalytics.com/packages/info/?A3#depend

Thanks for the link to mran! I'll create indexer, hopefully this weekend, and we'll see how it looks like :).

anvaka commented 9 years ago

This is R.

ConceptDelta commented 9 years ago

Nice! Is there a way to highlight the connections?

For instance, if I select ggplot2 (for example) it list 180 dependencies. However, I can't see the links to the other nodes - it gets buried in the noise.

@ConceptDelta maybe something like I proposed in #3?

ConceptDelta commented 9 years ago

Exactly.
