Drawing a multipartite graph using networkx

Time:10-28

I have this graph structure

graph = thisdict['data']['graph']

dict_edges = graph['edges']

edges = []

for edge in dict_edges:
    edges.append((edge['source']['node_id'], edge['target']['node_id']))

print('Source:\t\t\t     Target:\n')
    
for edge in edges:
    print(str(edge))

print('\n')

dict_nodes = graph['nodes']

nodes = {}

for node in dict_nodes:
    nodes[node['id']] = node['name']

print('Node ID:\t\t    Node Name:\n')

for key, value in nodes.items():
    print("'%s':'%s'" %(key, value))

The output:

Source:                                Target:

('61697b94f74c92a808641ba3', '61697b95f74c92a808641ba4')

Node ID:            Node Name:

'61697b94f74c92a808641ba3':'S3 connector'
'61697b95f74c92a808641ba4':'loader 1'
'61697b96f74c92a808641ba5':'loader 2'   
'61697b96f74c92a808641ba6':'sampler 1'
'61697b97f74c92a808641ba7':'concator'
'61697b98f74c92a808641ba8':'sampler 2'
'61697b98f74c92a808641ba9':'splitter'

I wrote this code to draw the graph:

nx_graph = nx.Graph()
plt.figure(figsize=(3,3))

for key, value in nodes.items():
    nx_graph.add_node(key, layer = nodes.values())
    #I need to put every node name in a single layer, So I should have 6 layers

for edge in edges:
    nx_graph.add_edge(*edge)

pos = nx.multipartite_layout(nx_graph, subset_key="layer")

nx.draw(nx_graph, pos, labels=nodes, with_labels=True)

plt.show()

It shows an error says : TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: 'dict_values' and 'float'

I need to put every node name in a single layer, So I should have 6 layers. The layers sorting should be like the following:

S3 connector --> loader 1 & loader 2
                 loader 1 will give sampler 1
                 loader 2 & sampler 1 will meet in concator
                 concator will give sampler 2
                 sampler 2 will give splitter

CodePudding user response:

The error is occurring because when you add nodes in the for loop, you pass layer = nodes.values() instead of just layer=value. However, correcting that still won't give you the layout that you want because you actually have to specify the layers somehow. Based on your description of the 6 layers, I added them as attributes from a separate dictionary.

I made some assumptions about what you're actually trying to do by changing to a DiGraph and deciding where the sampler 1 nod is.

Here is a self-contained code block and its output.
