Create a hierplane object using data.tree

The data.tree package is a popular, general purpose hierarchical data structure for R. Therefore, hp_datatree tries to make it so hierplane is compatible with data.tree objects.

hp_datatree(
  .data,
  title = "Hierplane",
  attributes = NULL,
  link = "to",
  node_type = "from",
  styles = NULL
)

Arguments

.data	A data.tree object of class "Node".
title	A title, defaults to "Hierplane", this serves as the header/title of the hierplane.
attributes	Attributes to assign to the nodes, these are the annotation in the nodes.
link	Link connecting each node, theres are the tabs or connections you see between each node.
node_type	A column name that determines the node colors.
styles	Assign styles to hierplane generated from hierplane_styles().

library(hierplane)
library(data.tree)
library(yaml)
