Adding centrality measures as vertex attributes

Question

I am trying to add centrality measures as attributes to a "master graph", g_master. Here is my code:

library(igraph)
#generate master graph
g <- sample_pa(10000)
g_in <- degree(g, mode="in")
g_out <- degree(g, mode="out")
g_inclo <- closeness(g, mode="in")
g_outclo <- closeness(g, mode="out")
g_bet <- betweenness(g)
set_vertex_attr(g, "name", index=V(g), value = V(g))
g_master <- data.frame(V(g), g_in, g_out, g_inclo, g_outclo, g_bet)

But I get the following:

> g_master <- data.frame(V(g), g_in, g_out, g_inclo, g_outclo, g_bet)
Error in as.data.frame.default(x[[i]], optional = TRUE) : 
  cannot coerce class ""igraph.vs"" to a data.frame

Other parts of the codes are fine.

As the error says, it faces problems trying to use something of class igraph.vs. In particular, it is V(g) what causes problems. But we can coerce it as follows:

g_master <- data.frame(V = as.vector(V(g)), g_in, g_out, g_inclo, g_outclo, g_bet)
head(g_master, 2)
#   V g_in g_out      g_inclo   g_outclo g_bet
# 1 1  208     0 2.193608e-05 1.0001e-08     0
# 2 2   48     1 1.042957e-08 1.0002e-08   411
