networkx + d3.js

[Dow Street]

All,

I was talking recently with a few d3.js developers about writing an
interface to networkx. We noticed that the little sample graphic on
the networkx homepage uses d3 - is anyone aware of other existing work
in this area (before we re-invent the wheel)?

Thanks!
Dow

The examples section of the docs has a javascript section and d3 is used in the "force" example:

Two sites that talk about it are:

and the original by Drew

I'm sure there is more out there.  Maybe someone else can point to other examples.

See the example at
https://networkx.lanl.gov/trac/browser/networkx/examples/javascript
That generates the graphic on the networkx front page. It's not a
real interface between networkx and d3 but works for simple cases.

It uses networkx functions that export networkx data to d3-friendly
JSON formats:

which might help.

Thanks, Aric. Will take a look...

Have you used it so far?

I was looking for a JS API that helps me with multiple network layouts as well as some statistical analyses (e.g. centrality, etc.). My current code is D3 JS under node.js so I was thinking of integrating what i can find.

Please let me know if you have done/read/heard anything regarding these issues (also social network analysis and graph mining). It seems like NetworkX has the basics I need.

It appears that Felix Kling has developped such an intermediate step between NetworkX and d3:

I've been using d3.js to visualise data network topologies as part of
my PhD work for a while now. All of the visualisations shown at
http://www.youtube.com/autonetkit were created using NetworkX graphs
exported using the readwrite.json_graph export, and then mapped using
d3.js

The source code was put together in a rush, so it's not particuarly
user friendly. But it might serve as an example of what can be done -
the combination of d3.js and NetworkX is amazingly powerful -
especially if you use IPython Notebooks
