colorVertexByAttr {NetPathMiner} | R Documentation

## Computes colors for vertices according to their attributes.

### Description

This function returns a list of colors for vertices, assigned similar colors if they share a common attribute (ex: in the same pathway, etc).

### Usage

    colorVertexByAttr(graph, attr.name, col.palette = palette())

### Arguments

`graph` | An annotated igraph object.
`attr.name` | The attribute name (ex: "pathway") by which vertices will be colored. Complex attributes, where a vertex belongs to more than one group, are supported.
`col.palette` | A color palette, or a palette generating function (ex:
    col.palette=rainbow
).

### Value

A list of colors (in HEX format) for vertices.
