Installation

Random NWNs can be installed from PyPI for quick use or installed manually for development.

Latest

The latest version can be installed from PyPI:

pip install randomnwn

Development

For convenience, one can use the environment.yml file with Anaconda to create a new virtual environment with all the required dependencies.

conda env create -f environment.yml

This will create a new environment named randomnwn. To activate the environment, use:

conda activate randomnwn

Then, to install the package, use pip. One can install the package in the usual way above, or install it in editable mode to allow for local development. Navigate to the base folder and run:

pip install -e .

Usage

Nanowire network objects are simply NetworkX graphs with various attributes stored in the graph, edges, and nodes.

>>> import randomnwn as rnwn
>>> NWN = rnwn.create_NWN(seed=123)
>>> NWN
<networkx.classes.graph.Graph at 0x...>
>>> rnwn.plot_NWN(NWN)
(<Figure size 800x600 with 1 Axes>, <AxesSubplot:>)

See the wiki pages for more detail on usage.

Uninstallation

To uninstall the package, use:

pip uninstall randomnwn
