\section{Introduction}

The \Rpackage{graph} package provides representations of graphs (nodes
and edges) as S4 classes.  This vignette demonstrates how to add
arbitrary node and edge attributes to graph objects.

First, we create a graph to use as an example.  We will work with a
\Rclass{graphAM-class} instance, however, any subclass of
\Rclass{graph-class} would work. See Figure~\ref{foo}.

<<exampleGraph1, results=hide>>=
library("graph")
mat <- matrix(c(0, 0, 1, 1, 
                0, 0, 1, 1, 
                1, 1, 0, 1, 
                1, 1, 1, 0),
              byrow=TRUE, ncol=4)
rownames(mat) <- letters[1:4]
colnames(mat) <- letters[1:4]
@ 
<<exampleGraph2, print=TRUE>>=
g1 <- graphAM(adjMat=mat)
@ 

<<foo, fig=TRUE, prefix=FALSE, echo=FALSE, results=hide, include=FALSE, width=6, height=6>>=
if (require("Rgraphviz")) {
    gn = as(g1, "graphNEL")
    plot(gn, nodeAttrs=makeNodeAttrs(gn, shape="circle", fillcolor="orange"))
} else {
  plot(1, 1, main="Rgraphviz required for this plot")
}

\section{Edge Attributes}

\subsection{Default edge attributes}

All edges in a graph support the same set of attributes.  The set of
supported attributes can be defined and accessed using the
\Rmethod{edgeDataDefaults} method.  
A new graph instance will not have any edge attributes defined.
%
<<edgeDataDefaults1>>=
edgeDataDefaults(g1)
@ 

When a new edge attribute is defined, a default value must be
specified.  Here we will define two edge attributes: \Rcode{weight}
and \Rcode{code} and specify a default value for each one.

<<edgeDataDefaults2>>=
edgeDataDefaults(g1, "weight") <- 1
edgeDataDefaults(g1, "code") <- "plain"
edgeDataDefaults(g1)
@ 

The default value for a particular attribute can be obtained by
specifying the attribute name in the call to \Rmethod{edgeDataDefaults}.

<<edgeDataDefaults3>>=
edgeDataDefaults(g1, "weight")
@ 

\subsection{Getting edge attributes}

Edge attributes are set and accessed using the \Rmethod{edgeData}
method.  Only attributes defined using \Rmethod{edgeDataDefaults} can
be accessed using \Rmethod{edgeData}.  If an attribute has not be set
using \Rmethod{edgeData} for a given edge, then the default value is used.

<<edgeData1>>=
edgeData(g1, from="a", to="d", attr="weight")
edgeData(g1, from="a", attr="weight")
edgeData(g1, to="a", attr="weight")
allAttrsAllEdges <- edgeData(g1)
weightAttrAllEdges <- edgeData(g1, attr="weight")
@ 

\subsection{Setting edge attributes}

Attributes are set using the replacement form of \Rmethod{edgeData}.
This method allows the user to update the attribute for single edge,
set the attributes for a collection of edges to a single value, and to
set the attributes for a collection of edges to different values
specified by a vector of values.

<<edgeData2>>=
edgeData(g1, from="a", to="d", attr="weight") <- 2
edgeData(g1, from="a", attr="code") <- "fancy"
edgeData(g1, from="a", attr="weight")
edgeData(g1, from="a", attr="code")
@ 

We can set the attributes for multiple edges to a single value.

<<edgeData3>>=
f <- c("a", "b")
t <- c("c", "c")
edgeData(g1, from=f, to=t, attr="weight") <- 10
edgeData(g1, from=f, to=t, attr="weight")
@ 

It is also possible to set multiple attributes to different values in
a single call to \Rmethod{edgeData}.

<<edgeData4>>=
edgeData(g1, from=f, to=t, attr="weight") <- c(11, 22)
edgeData(g1, from=f, to=t, attr="weight")
@ 

Finally, we can set the an attribute to a vector of values by packing 
it into a list:
%
<<edgeData5>>=
edgeData(g1, from="a", to="d", attr="code") <- list(1:10)
edgeData(g1, from=f, to=t, attr="weight") <- mapply(c, f, t, "e", SIMPLIFY=FALSE) 
edgeData(g1, from="a", to="d", attr="code")
edgeData(g1, from=f, to=t, attr="weight")
@ 

\section{Node Attributes}

\subsection{Default node attributes}

Like edge attributes, all nodes in a graph support the same set of
attributes.  The supported set of attributes and their default values
is accessed using the \Rmethod{nodeDataDefaults} method.  The interface
is similar to \Rmethod{edgeDataDefaults}.

<<defaultNodeData1>>=
nodeDataDefaults(g1)
nodeDataDefaults(g1, attr="weight") <- 1
nodeDataDefaults(g1, attr="type") <- "vital"
nodeDataDefaults(g1)
nodeDataDefaults(g1, "weight")
@ 

As with edge attributes, default values are required for each node
attribute.  The default value is used as the node attribute for all
nodes in the graph that have not had their attribute value explicitly
set.  Attribute values can be any R object.

\subsection{Getting and setting node attributes}

Once a node attribute has been defined and given a default value using
\Rmethod{nodeDataDefaults}, individual node attributes can be accessed
using \Rmethod{nodeData}.

<<nodeData1>>=
nodeData(g1, n="a")
nodeData(g1, n="a", attr="weight") <- 100
nodeData(g1, n=c("a", "b"), attr="weight")
nodeData(g1, n=c("a", "b"), attr="weight") <- 500
nodeData(g1, n=c("a", "b"), attr="weight")
nodeData(g1, n=c("a", "b"), attr="weight") <- c(11, 22)
nodeData(g1, n=c("a", "b"), attr="weight")
@ 

<<other, hide=TRUE, echo=FALSE>>=
## We need to reconcile this
#g2 <- as(g1, "graphNEL")
#edgeWeights(g2)
