Plot dependency network copy-pasted from https://gist.github.com/crsh/c906e93c260488e7363ea606243057c2 but considered all dependencies

plot_dependencies.R

#' Plot network of package dependencies
#'
#' @param pkg package description, can be path or package name.
#' See \code{\link[devtools]{as.package}} for more information.
#' @param type which packages should be included in the network
#'
#' @details The resulting plot visualizes the network of package dependencies.
#'    If you are trying to cut down on package dependencies look for big red
#'    dots that represent a lot of upstream but few downstream  dependencies.
#' @import ggplot2
#' @export
