g6R provides R bindings to the G6 graph library. It allows to create interactive network in R, with stunning set of features, including:
- Support for various layouts, such as force-directed, radial, circular, and hierarchical layouts.
- Interactive behaviors like zooming, dragging, and selecting elements.
- Plugins for additional functionality, such as minimaps and tooltips, context menus, and node grouping features like bubble sets, hulls and legends.
- Various data sources including data frames, lists and remote JSON urls.
- Support for combos allowing for nested nodes.
- High performance rendering (>20000 nodes).

Installation
You can install the development version of g6R from GitHub with:
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("cynkra/g6R")
Example
To create a g6R graph:
library(g6R)
nodes <- data.frame(
id = 1:10,
label = 1:10
)
# Generate random edges
edges <- data.frame(
source = c(2, 6, 7),
target = c(1, 3, 9)
)
g6(nodes, edges) |>
g6_options(
node = list(
style = list(
labelBackground = TRUE,
labelBackgroundFill = '#FFB6C1',
labelBackgroundRadius = 4,
labelFontFamily = 'Arial',
labelPadding = c(0, 4),
labelText = JS(
"(d) => {
return d.id
}"
)
)
)
) |>
g6_layout(d3_force_layout()) |>
g6_behaviors(
"zoom-canvas",
drag_element_force(fixed = TRUE),
click_select(
multiple = TRUE,
onClick = JS(
"(e) => {
console.log(e);
}"
)
),
brush_select(),
create_edge()
