Pajek Tools

Tools for converting network data to pajek files.

Pajek is a file format for networks, typically stored in files with a .net extension. It is used as input for software such as Infomap.

Installation

Install from PyPI:

pip install pajek-tools

Usage

Use the PajekWriter object to convert a network from an edgelist in pandas DataFrame form, to a Pajek .net file:

from pajek_tools import PajekWriter
writer = PajekWriter(dataframe)
writer.write("output.net")

Example

from pajek_tools import PajekWriter
import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame([["a", "b"], ["a", "c"], ["c", "a"], ["c", "d"]], columns=["source", "target"])
writer = PajekWriter(df,
                     directed=True,
                     citing_colname="source",
                     cited_colname="target")
writer.write("output.net")
