## Overview

NetworkX Query Tool

See [documentation](https://geronimo-iia.github.io/networkx-query).


## Installation

Install this library directly into an activated virtual environment:

```text
$ pip install networkx-query
```

or add it to your [Poetry](https://poetry.eustace.io/) project:

```text
$ poetry add networkx-query
```

## Usage

### Searching nodes

```python
import networkx as nx
from networkx_query import search_nodes, search_edges

g = nx.DiGraph()
g.add_node(1, product="chocolate")
g.add_node(2, product="milk")
g.add_node(3, product="coat")
g.add_edge(1, 2, action="shake")
g.add_edge(3, 2, action="produce")


for node_id in search_nodes(g, {"==": [("product",), "chocolate"]}):
    print(node_id)

>> 1
```

### Searching edges

```python
for edge_id in search_edges(g, {"eq": [("action",), "produce"]}):
    print(edge_id)

>> (3, 2)
```

### Searching direct relation ship

With ```search_direct_relationships``` you can made a query which filter edges on their :
 - source node attributes
 - edge attributes
 - target node attributes

With this graph:

```python
import networkx as nx
from networkx_query import search_direct_relationships

g = nx.DiGraph()
for i in range(30):
    g.add_node(i, data=i)

for i in range(10, 30):
    g.add_edge(i - 10, i, data=i)
```

We can filtering all edges with source node with data < 3:

```python
list(search_direct_relationships(graph=g, source={"lt": ["data", 3]}))

[(0, 10), (1, 11), (2, 12)]
```


We can filtering all edges with:
 - source node with data < 8
 - edge with data > 15

```python
list(search_direct_relationships(graph=g, source={"lt": ["data", 8]}, edge={"gt": ["data", 15]}))

>> [(6, 16), (7, 17)]
```

We can filtering all edges with:
 - source node with data > 9
 - edge with data > 15
 - target node with data < 22

```python
search_direct_relationships(
            graph=g, source={"gt": ["data", 9]}, edge={"gt": ["data", 15]}, target={'lt': ["data", 22]}
        )
    )

>> [(10, 20), (11, 21)]
```



### search_relationships

With :

```python
    g = nx.DiGraph()
    g.add_node(1, product="a")
    g.add_node(2, product="b")
    g.add_node(3, product="c")
    g.add_node(4, product="d")

    g.add_edge(1, 2)
    g.add_edge(1, 3, weight=2)
    g.add_edge(1, 4)

    g.add_edge(2, 4)
    g.add_edge(3, 4)
```


You could find all path with multiple constraints:

```python
    list(search_relationships(
            g,
            {"eq": [("product",), "a"]},
            PathCriteria(target={"eq": [("product",), "b"]}),
            PathCriteria(target={"eq": [("product",), "d"]}),
        )) 
    # output: [[1, 2, 4]]

     list(search_relationships(g, {"eq": [("product",), "a"]}, PathCriteria(target={"eq": [("product",), "c"]})))
     # outptu: [[1, 3]]
```

or something more complex:

```python

    g.add_node(5, product="d")
    g.add_node(6, product="d")
    g.add_node(7, product="a")
    g.add_node(8, product="a")

    g.add_edge(7, 5, weight=2)
    g.add_edge(7, 6, weight=2)
    g.add_edge(8, 5, weight=2)

    list(
        search_relationships(
            g,
            {"eq": [("product",), "a"]},  # node 1, 7, 8
            PathCriteria(
                target={"eq": [("product",), "d"]}, edge={"eq": [("weight",), 2]}
            ),  # edge 1-3, 7-5, 7-6, 8-5  node 4, 5, 6 -> no 1, 3, 4
        )
    )
    # output: [[7, 5], [7, 6], [8, 5]]

    list(
        search_relationships(
            g,
            {"eq": [("product",), "a"]},  # node 1, 7, 8
            PathCriteria(target={}, edge={"eq": [("weight",), 2]}),  # edge 1-3, 7-5, 7-6, 8-5
            PathCriteria(target={"eq": [("product",), "d"]}),  # node 4, 5, 6 -> no 1, 3, 4
        )
    )
    # output: [[1, 3, 4]]
```

Note the usage of `PathCriteria(target={}, ..` to define a constraint based only on edge. `{}` act as a wildcard.

## API

Actually, we have:

- [search_edges](https://geronimo-iia.github.io/networkx-query/reference/#networkx_query.search_edges)
- [search_nodes](https://geronimo-iia.github.io/networkx-query/reference/#networkx_query.search_nodes) 
- [search_direct_relationships](https://geronimo-iia.github.io/networkx-query/reference/#networkx_query.search_direct_relationships) 
- [search_relationships](https://geronimo-iia.github.io/networkx-query/reference/#networkx_query.search_relationships) 


All this function are based on [prepare_query](https://geronimo-iia.github.io/networkx-query/reference/#networkx_query.prepare_query) which return an Evaluator.

Quickly, ```Evaluator``` are function with this signature: (context) -> bool, and ```Context``` is a dictionary like structure (with in and [] methods, and support __contains__ or  (__iter__ and __getitem__))
With networkX, node and edge attributes are dictionary like, so implementation of this three methods are very simple.



## Query language

We define a little json query language like [json-query-language](https://github.com/clue/json-query-language/blob/master/SYNTAX.md) 
against nodes or edges attributes.


### Expressions

Main expression syntax turn around this:

```
{
    operator_name : parameters
}
```

### Basic matching expression

Test if a node/edge has an attribute named "my_property":
```
{
    "has" : "my_property"
}
```


Test if a node/edge has an attribute product : { "definition": { "name": xxx }} with xxx equals to "chocolate".
```
{
    "eq" : [ ("product", "definition", "name"), "chocolate"]
}
```

The tuple ```("product", "definition", "name")``` is a path in attribut dictionnary.
A Path is a single string or a tuple of string which represente a path in a tree (here a dictionary).

We support this operators:

| Name     | Alias | Parameters      | Description                                                                   |
| -------- | :---: | --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| has      |       | Path            | Check if path exists in context.                                              |
| contains |       | Path, str       | Check if an attribut path exists and contains specified value.                |
| eq       | `==`  | Path, Any       | Check if an attribut path exists and equals specified value.                  |
| neq      | `!=`  | Path, Any       | Check if an attribut path did not exists or not equals specified value.       |
| gt       |  `>`  | Path, Any       | Check if an attribut path exists and greather that specified value.           |
| lt       |  `<`  | Path, Any       | Check if an attribut path exists and lower that specified value.              |
| gte      | `>=`  | Path, Any       | Check if an attribut path exists and greather or equals that specified value. |
| lte      | `<=`  | Path, Any       | Check if an attribut path exists and lower or equals that specified value.    |
| in       | `:=`  | Path, List[Any] | Check if an attribut path exists and attribut value in specified values.      |


### Boolean composition of matching expression

We support this operators:

| Name | Alias | Parameters    | Description    |
| ---- | :---: | ------------- | -------------- |
| and  | `&&`  | list of query | And operator.  |
| or   | \|\|  | list of query | Or operator.   |
| xor  |       | list of query | xor operator.  |
| nxor |       | list of query | nxor operator. |
| not  |  `!`  | query         | Not operator.  |


By default, a list of expressions is equivalent of an "AND" of this expressions.

Example:
```
{
    'not': {
        'has': ['group']
    },
    'has': 'application',
    'eq': [('_link', 'other', 'weight'), 2]
}
```
is equivalent to:

```
{
    'and': [
        {
            'not': [
                {
                    'has': ['group']
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            'has': ['application']
        },
        {
            'eq': [('_link', 'other', 'weight'), 2]
        }
    ]
}
```

## Wished Features

- add projection expression (a return like statement)
- add join relation ship
