GEXFpy is a python wrapper for Gexf XML version 1.2 .

We provide 2 ways to use it:

• Parse Gexf XML as Graph Python Object: read gexf version 1.2 xml file into python as Gexf python object.
• Serialize Graph Python Object into Gexf XML: create python object Gexf instance and serialize this object into gexf version 1.2 xml file.

Getting Started

Requirements and Installation

• Python version >= 3.8
• xsdata version == 21.9

pip install gexfpy

Install from source via:

pip install git+https://github.com/chunqishi/gexfpy.git

Or clone the repository and install with the following commands:

git clone git@github.com:chunqishi/gexfpy.git
cd gexfpy
pip install -e .

Usage

API Usage

You can run all kinds of experiments through GEXFpy APIs. A quickstart example can be found in the quick_start.py. More examples are provided in the examples/.

from gexfpy import parse

# basic usage parse file
sbu_310 = parse('sbu_310.gexf')
print('graph sbu_310 nodes number =', len(sbu_310.graph.nodes[0].node))


# serialize Gexf object into xml string
from gexfpy import stringify
from gexfpy import Gexf, Graph, Nodes, Edges, Node, Edge, Color

gexf = Gexf()
gexf.graph = Graph()
gexf.graph.nodes = [Nodes(node=[Node(id=1, label="node 1",
                                     color=[Color(r=255, g=0, b=0)]),
                                Node(id=2, label="node 2"),
                                Node(id=3, label="node 3")],
                          count=3)]
gexf.graph.edges = [Edges(edge=[Edge(source=1, target=2, label="edge 1"),
                                Edge(source=2, target=3, label="edge 1")],
                          count=2)]
s = stringify(gexf)
print(s)
