0.3.1

• Improved examples for d3.js v4+

0.3

• Upgraded to d3.js version 4.5.0 from version 3.5.2. HUGE thanks to CJ Yetman who did basically all of the work for this. #143

0.2.14

• Explose sinksRight option for sankeyNetwork so that users can decide not to have the last nodes moved to the right border. Thanks to Florian Breitwieser.

0.2.13

• simpleNetwork, forceNetwork, and sankeyNetwork should now work with tbl_df link and node data frames. Thanks to @mexindian for suggesting.

0.2.12

• Add resize to sankeyNetwork for flexdashboard. Thanks to Kenton Russell for adding.

• Fixed a bug where Source and Target labels were not properly concatenated in sankeyNetwork tooltips. Thanks to Tuija Sonkkila for reporting.

• Improved igraph_to_networkD3 so that it now handles more general weight names. Thanks to Maurits Evers for reporting.

0.2.11

• forceNetwork, simpleNetwork, and sankeyNetwork generate errors if data does not appear to be zero-indexed. Thanks to Peter Meissner for prompting this addition.

• Bug fix for igraph_to_networkD3 so that it now accepts the value attribute. Thanks to Louis Goddard.

• Bug fix for diagonalNetwork when using hierarchical lists with singular connections. Thanks to @RohdeK.

• Fix viewbox position when rerendered in shiny. Thanks to @RohdeK.

• Added the iterations argument to sankeyNetwork, which adjusts the y-axis positioning. Thanks to @giko45.

0.2.10

• Added the function igraph_to_networkD3 to convert an igraph class object to a list that can be used with networkD3.

• Fixed a bug where linkColour was not actually passed to the widget for diagonalNetwork and radialNetwork. Thanks to Pierre Formont.

0.2.9

• forceNetwork now allows you to supply a vector of colours to the linkColourargument. This enables the user to highlight links to specific nodes. Thanks to Garth Tarr.

• Minor documentation improvements.

0.2.8

• Added NodeGroup and LinkGroup parameters to sankeyNetwork so links can be colourised. Thanks to Edwin de Jonge.

• fontFamily is now applied to legends in forceNetwork. Thanks to Casey Shannon.

• Improved bounding behaviour with forceNetwork. Now bounds both the links and nodes. Thanks to Koba Khitalishvili.

0.2.7

• Fixed an issue with sankey viewBox sizing.

0.2.6

• sankeyNetwork fully supports cycles

• sankeyNetwork gets same responsive sizing and better fitting introduced in 0.2.4 for diagonalNetwork and radialNetwork.

• sankeyNetwork gets same full margin control introduced in 0.2.4 for diagonalNetwork and radialNetwork.

0.2.5

• Added chordDiagram to show directed relationships among entities.

0.2.4

• More robust margin argument for diagonalNetwork and radialNetwork allows for a single value or specification of top, right, bottom, and left by named vector or list.

• Responsive sizing using the viewBox attribute of svg for diagonalNetwork and radialNetwork should allow for fitting in the container with no fiddling.

0.2.3

• Internal improvements to reduce dependencies: no longer depends on RCurl, plyr, and rjson.

• Updated examples:

• Using jsonlite makes JSONtoDF obsolete with the fromJSON function.

• All Github data links now use the CDN link from rawgit, so the examples should be more inline with Github raw policies.

0.2.2

• sankeyNetwork changes:

  • Removes forced font family in favor of inherited from css or specified through the fontFamily argument.

  • Fixes issue with backslashes in the label for links.

  • Puts unicode right arrow in the tooltip. Adds argument to specify units for the tooltip label.

  • Handles cycles by updating this forked repo: https://github.com/soxofaan/d3-plugin-captain-sankey.

  • Makes assumptions that Source is column 1 and Target is column 2 if not provided.

0.2.1

• Fixed an issue with forceNetwork on Firefox. Thanks to @agoldst.

• Fixed an issue where forceNetwork node size would not return to default after mouseover. Thanks to Pascal Pernot.

0.2

• Added dendroNetwork to create hierarchical cluster network diagrams (dendrograms).

• treeNetwork is DEPRECATED.

• Placed functionality from treeNetwork to radialNetwork. The new radialNetwork function has the same functionality, but has been renamed to be more accurately descriptive and avoid confusion with dendroNetwork.

• Added diagonalNetwork, which creates tree network diagrams using diagonal instead of radial nodes.

Thanks to Jonathan Owen.

0.1.8

• Added clickAction argument to forceNetwork to allow the user to pass a JavaScript expression through to be activated on click of a node. Thanks to Peter Ellis.

• Added bounded argument to forceNetwork to allow the user to create a bounding box for the plot. See http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/1129492. Thanks to Charles Sese.

• Added fontFamily argument to forceNetwork, simpleNetwork, sankeyNetwork, and treeNetwork. Thanks to Peter Ellis.

• Added opacityNoHover argument to forceNetwork to set the opacity of node labels when nodes are not hovered over. Thanks to Peter Ellis.

0.1.7

• Include JS from htmlwidgets, to make it easier for users to pass arbitrary JS to more arguments.

• Other internal code and documentation improvements.

0.1.6

• fontSize used for all functions rather than fontsize. Thank you to @Hunter-Github for spotting this inconsistency.

0.1.5

• Minor improvement to treeNetwork documentation. Thanks to Steven Beaupré and MrFlick.

0.1.4

• forceNetwork gains three new arguments.

  • legend allows you to add a node colour legend.

  • radiusCalculation and Nodesize allow you to vary node radius by some values.

Thank you to Charles Sese for these additions.
