nxquickplot 1.0.0

Convenience package for drawing NetworkX graphs

nxquickplot

Convenient plotting for graphs in NetworkX. These functions are rather asymmetric/non-composable because they aim to literally capture concrete use patterns rather than abstracting over them. If you need other stuff, just use the raw draw_networkx API.

API

Draw the graph with a force-directed layout

from nxquickplot import plot_force
import networkx

g = networkx.DiGraph()

g.add_node('Alice')
g.add_node('Bob')
g.add_edge('Alice', 'Bob')

plot_force(g)

Draw the graph with a random deterministic layout

from nxquickplot import plot_random_deterministic
import networkx

g = networkx.DiGraph()

g.add_node('Alice')
g.add_node('Bob')
g.add_edge('Alice', 'Bob')

plot_random_deterministic(g)

Draw the graph plotting a certain attribute rather than the node ID

from nxquickplot import plot_with_attr
import networkx

g = networkx.DiGraph()

g.add_node('Alice', age=42)
g.add_node('Bob', age=31)
g.add_edge('Alice', 'Bob')

plot_with_attr(g, 'age')

This must be force directed.
