MetaGraphs.jl

MetaGraphs.jl copied to clipboard

I thought this should work, but it doesn't:

using Graphs
using MetaGraphs

g = path_graph(5)
mg = MetaGraph(g, 3.0)
set_prop!(mg, :description, "This is a metagraph.")

savegraph("/tmp/test_graph.lg", mg)

mg1 = loadgraph("/tmp/test_graph.lg")

Is it something to do with the compressed format - savegraph(.. ... metagraph ... , compress=false) doesn't work either?

Using Graphs v1.7.0, MetaGraphs v0.7.1, Julia 1.7.

savegraph saves by default a MetaGraphs using JLD2.jl to HDF5 format. loadgraph loads by default a MetaGraphs using LG format. You can load the graph using loadgraph(fn, gname, MGFormat())

We should probably have a consistent behavior here.

Thanks, didn't see MGFormat() anywhere...

Yes, I found it by digging in the code, we should also document this.

for GraphML support there is this PR https://github.com/JuliaGraphs/GraphIO.jl/pull/49 on hold with an ongoing discussion. Please feel free to share your opinion.
