ggdag (version 0.2.7)

Nodes: DAG Nodes

Description

geom_dag_node and geom_dag_point are very similar to ggplot2::geom_point but with a few defaults changed. geom_dag_node is slightly stylized and includes an internal white circle, while geom_dag_point plots a single point.

Usage

geom_dag_node(
  mapping = NULL,
  data = NULL,
  position = "identity",
  ...,
  na.rm = FALSE,
  show.legend = NA,
  inherit.aes = TRUE
)
geom_dag_point(
  mapping = NULL,
  data = NULL,
  position = "identity",
  ...,
  na.rm = FALSE,
  show.legend = NA,
  inherit.aes = TRUE
)

Arguments

mapping

Set of aesthetic mappings created by aes(). If specified and inherit.aes = TRUE (the default), it is combined with the default mapping at the top level of the plot. You must supply mapping if there is no plot mapping.

data

The data to be displayed in this layer. There are three options:

If NULL, the default, the data is inherited from the plot data as specified in the call to ggplot().

A data.frame, or other object, will override the plot data. All objects will be fortified to produce a data frame. See fortify() for which variables will be created.

A function will be called with a single argument, the plot data. The return value must be a data.frame, and will be used as the layer data. A function can be created from a formula (e.g. ~ head(.x, 10)).

position

Position adjustment, either as a string naming the adjustment (e.g. "jitter" to use position_jitter), or the result of a call to a position adjustment function. Use the latter if you need to change the settings of the adjustment.

...

Other arguments passed on to layer(). These are often aesthetics, used to set an aesthetic to a fixed value, like colour = "red" or size = 3. They may also be parameters to the paired geom/stat.

na.rm

If FALSE, the default, missing values are removed with a warning. If TRUE, missing values are silently removed.

show.legend

logical. Should this layer be included in the legends? NA, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped. FALSE never includes, and TRUE always includes. It can also be a named logical vector to finely select the aesthetics to display.

inherit.aes

If FALSE, overrides the default aesthetics, rather than combining with them. This is most useful for helper functions that define both data and aesthetics and shouldn't inherit behaviour from the default plot specification, e.g. borders().

Aesthetics

geom_dag_node and geom_dag_point understand the following aesthetics (required aesthetics are in bold):

• x

• y

• alpha

• colour

• fill

• shape

• size

• stroke

• filter

geom_dag_node also accepts:

• internal_colour

Examples

library(ggplot2)
g <- dagify(m ~ x + y, y ~ x)
p <- g %>%
  tidy_dagitty() %>%
  ggplot(aes(x = x, y = y, xend = xend, yend = yend)) +
  geom_dag_edges() +
  theme_dag()

p +
  geom_dag_node() +
  geom_dag_text()

  geom_dag_point() +
  geom_dag_text()
