v1.2.0

[jhollway]

Description

Package

• Added progress updates, information, and unavailability errors to several functions
  • These can be silenced by setting options(manynet_verbosity ="quiet")
  • Where a feature is unavailable, users are directed to the Github issues page
• Added console theme to color the startup and various warning or info messages

Making

• Added create_ego() for collecting ego networks through interviews, including arguments for:
  • Indicating whether a roster should be used, otherwise follows a name generator approach
  • Indicating whether nodes should be interpreted, i.e. nodal attributes collected
  • Indicating whether ties between alters should be requested
• Added create_motifs() for creating networks that correspond to the isomorphic subgraphs of certain size and format

Modifying

• Improved print.mnet()
  • Prints multiplex types if available
  • Prints both nodesets for two-mode networks
• Added add_info() for adding grand info to tidygraph objects
  • This includes the name of the network, node sets and ties, DOI, year and mode of collection
• Fixed to_unweighted() so that it passes through unweighted networks correctly

Mapping

• Added set_manynet_theme() to set theme (re #60), but not yet fully implemented

Marking

• Improved is_multiplex() to ignore "name" tie attributes

Measuring

• Added node_authority() and node_hub() centrality measures
• Added node_equivalency() for calculating four-cycle closure by node
• Extended net_equivalency() to one-mode networks

Members

• Fixed node_in_equivalence() to use census directly

Motifs

• Added plot methods for network_motif and node_motif classes that use create_motifs()
• Added node_by_dyad() for node level dyad census
• Added net_by_quad() for network level quad census
• Fixed node_by_quad() to avoid {oaqc} dependency (#89), more flexible but slower
• Fixed print.node_motif() to convert to tibble and add modes and names where available only upon print
  • The underlying object is still a matrix, used for equivalence and blockmodelling

Data

• Updated ison_southern_women with grand info
• Updated ison_laterals with reordered nodes

Sorry I didn't get to this until after the merge. The updated add_info() looks good. It should work with the current CRAN version of {grand}, but not with the development version that will go to CRAN soon. I think there are only a couple minor issues:

• the documentation in add_info() mentions a "grand table," but support for a table output is removed from the new version of {grand}. The new version only generates a text summary.

• in the new version of {grand}, edge.pos and edge.neg have been renamed to positive and negative respectively.

• in the new version of {grand}, support for details about network boundaries is removed, which means there are no attributes called vertex1.total and vertex2.total
