Pickled Graphs
|
|
**************
|
|
Read and write NetworkX graphs as Python pickles.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
The pickle library is not secure and can be used to create arbitray objects.
|
|
Only unpickle data you trust - see :doc:`library/pickle` for additional information.
|
|
|
|
"The pickle module implements a fundamental, but powerful algorithm
|
|
for serializing and de-serializing a Python object
|
|
structure. "Pickling" is the process whereby a Python object hierarchy
|
|
is converted into a byte stream, and "unpickling" is the inverse
|
|
operation, whereby a byte stream is converted back into an object
|
|
hierarchy."
|
|
|
|
Note that NetworkX graphs can contain any hashable Python object as
|
|
node (not just integers and strings). For arbitrary data types it may
|
|
be difficult to represent the data as text. In that case using Python
|
|
pickles to store the graph data can be used.
