Set the layout algorithm for a g6 graph

This function configures the layout algorithm used to position nodes in a g6 graph.

Usage

g6_layout(graph, layout = d3_force_layout())

graph: A g6 graph object created with g6().
layout: An existing layout function like circular_layout or a string like circular-layout. At minimum, this can be a list that should contain a type element specifying the layout algorithm. Additional parameters depend on the layout type chosen, for instance list(type = "force").

The modified g6 graph object with the specified layout, allowing for method chaining.

G6 provides several layout algorithms, each suitable for different graph structures:

force: Force-directed layout using physical simulation of forces.
random: Random layout placing nodes randomly.
circular: Arranges nodes on a circle.
radial: Radial layout with nodes arranged outward from a central node.
grid: Arranges nodes in a grid pattern.
concentric: Concentric circles with important nodes in the center.
dagre: Hierarchical layout for directed acyclic graphs.
fruchterman: Force-directed layout based on the Fruchterman-Reingold algorithm.
mds: Multidimensional scaling layout.
comboForce: Force-directed layout specially designed for combo graphs.

Each layout algorithm has specific configuration options. See the G6 documentation for detailed information on each layout and its parameters: https://g6.antv.antgroup.com/en/manual/layout/overview.
