R networkD3 package: edge coloring in simpleNetwork()

Question

Is there a way to colour the edges of the network using the package networkD3 in R? All I have seen is ways of colouring the nodes but I have not seen anything regarding colouring the edges? Thanks

Answer 1

see the help file with ?simpleNetwork

it describes all the possible arguments, including...

linkColour - character string specifying the colour you want the link lines to be. Multiple formats supported (eg hexadecimal).

library(networkD3)

Source <- c("A", "A", "A", "A", "B", "B", "C", "C", "D")
Target <- c("B", "C", "D", "J", "E", "F", "G", "H", "I")
NetworkData <- data.frame(Source, Target)

simpleNetwork(NetworkData, linkColour = "green")
