\name{mergeKEGGgraphs} \alias{mergeKEGGgraphs} %- Also NEED an '\alias' for EACH other topic documented here. \title{ Merge KEGG graphs, also merging KEGGNode and KEGGEdge attributes} \description{ \code{mergeKEGGgraphs} extends function \code{mergeGraphs} and merges a list of KEGG graphs. Both \code{mergeGraphs} and \code{mergeKEGGgraphs} can be used to merge graphs, while the latter form is able to merge the nodes and edges attributes from KEGG, so that the nodes and edges have a one-to-one mapping to the results from \code{getKEGGnodeData} and \code{getKEGGEdgeData}. See details below. } \usage{ mergeKEGGgraphs(list, edgemode = "directed") } %- maybe also 'usage' for other objects documented here. \arguments{ \item{list}{ A list of named KEGG graphs} \item{edgemode}{ character, 'directed' by default} } \details{ \code{mergeGraphs} discards the node or edge attributes, hence \code{\link{getKEGGnodeData}} or \code{\link{getKEGGedgeData}} will return \code{NULL} on the resulting graph. \code{mergeKEGGgraphs} calls \code{mergeGraphs} first to merge the graphs, then it also merges the KEGGnodeData and KEGGedgeData.so that they are one-to-one mapped to the nodes and edges in the merged graph. } \value{ A graph with nodeData and edgeData } \author{ Jitao David Zhang \url{mailto:j.zhang@dkfz.de} } \seealso{ \code{\link{mergeGraphs}} } \examples{ sfile <- system.file("extdata/hsa04010.xml",package="KEGGgraph") gR <- parseKGML2Graph(sfile,expandGenes=TRUE) wntfile <- system.file("extdata/hsa04310.xml",package="KEGGgraph") wntR <- parseKGML2Graph(wntfile, expandGenes=TRUE) graphlist <- list(mapkG=gR, wntG=wntR) mergedKEGG <- mergeKEGGgraphs(graphlist) mergedKEGG }
