Welcome to pyWebGraph’s documentation!

This package is intended as a simple bridge easing the usage of the WebGraph library in Python.

This software is hosted at https://github.com/mapio/py-web-graph.

Given that the library is written in Java, some modules of this package must be run with Jython, or a similar Python interpreter able to execute Java code. To reduce the impact of such dependency, a basic XML-RPC server is provided to allow any other Python interpreter to access WebGraph data.

Finally, the package contains a simple wrapper for Ubigraph (a free tool for visualizing dynamic graphs) is provided, allowing some visual exploration of WebGraph data.

This documentation includes:

• Quickstart documents
  • The pyWebGraph console
  • Integration with Ubigraph
  • The pyWebGraph XML-RPC server
• Package documentation
  • pywebgraph.console — A simple CLI (and GUI) explorer
  • pywebgraph.ubigraph — Access to Ubigraph visualization server
  • pywebgraph.webgraph — Access to WebGraph data from Python
  • pywebgraph.webgraph.local — A Graph class to access WebGraph data
  • pywebgraph.webgraph.server — An XML-RPC server exposing WebGraph data
  • pywebgraph.webgraph.client — An XML-RPC client consuming WebGraph data
  • pywebgraph.examples.explore — A simple GUI interactive explorer
