Introduction

Interactive Graph Visualization (igviz) is a library to help visualize graphs interactively using Plotly. This library provides a customizable api for visualizing graphs in a neat, visually appealing plot. It keeps larger graphs much more clean by displaying minimal text information and highlights node properties and relationships using colour and size while providing the same text information when needed.

Usage

Basic

import networkx as nx
import igviz as ig

G = nx.random_geometric_graph(200, 0.125)
nx.set_node_attributes(G, 3, "prop")

ig.plot(G)

The default plot colors and sizes the nodes by the Degree but it is configurable.

Configurations

ig.plot(
    G, # Your graph
    title="My Graph",
    sizing_method="static", # Makes node sizes the same
    color_method="##ffcccb", # Makes all the node colours black,
    node_text=["prop"], # Adds the 'prop' property to the hover text of the node
    annotation_text="Visualization made by <a href='https://github.com/Ashton-Sidhu/plotly-graph'>igviz</a> & plotly.", # Adds a text annotation to the graph
)

ig.plot(
    G,
    title="My Graph",
    sizing_method="prop", # Makes node sizes the size of the "prop" property
    color_method="prop", # Colors the nodes based off the "prop" property and a color scale,
    node_text=["prop"], # Adds the 'prop' property to the hover text of the node
)

How to add your own custom sizing method and colour method

To add your own custom sizing and color method, just pass a list to the sizing_method and color_method.

color_list = []
sizing_list = []

for node in G.nodes():
    size_and_color = G.degree(node) * 3

    color_list.append(size_and_color)
    sizing_list.append(size_and_color)

ig.plot(
    G,
    title="My Graph",
    sizing_method=sizing_list, # Makes node sizes the size of the "prop" property
    color_method=color_list, # Colors the nodes based off the "prop" property and a color scale,
    node_text=["prop"], # Adds the 'prop' property to the hover text of the node
)

Installation

pip install igviz
