Properties

All the following properties are read-only and may not be changed by the user.

#.order

Number of nodes in the graph.

Example

const graph = new Graph();

graph.addNode('John');
graph.addNode('Jack');

graph.order;
>>> 2

#.size

Number of edges in the graph.

Example

const graph = new Graph();

graph.addNode('John');
graph.addNode('Jack');

graph.addEdge('John', 'Jack');

graph.size;
>>> 1

Variants

• #.directedSize
• #.undirectedSize

#.type

Type of the graph. One of mixed, directed or undirected.

Example

const graph = new Graph();
graph.type;
>>> 'mixed'

const directedGraph = new DirectedGraph();
directedGraph.type;
>>> 'directed'

#.multi

Whether the graph accepts parallel edges or not.

Example

const graph = new Graph();
graph.multi;
>>> false

const multiGraph = new MultiGraph();
multiGraph.multi;
>>> true

#.allowSelfLoops

Whether the graph accepts self loops or not.

const graph = new Graph();
graph.allowSelfLoops;
>>> true

const otherGraph = new Graph({allowSelfLoops: false});
graph.allowSelfLoops;
>>> false

#.selfLoopCount

The total number of self loop included in the graph.

const graph = new Graph();

graph.selfLoopCount
>>> 0

graph.mergeEdge('John', 'John');

graph.selfLoopCount
>>> 1

Variants

• #.directedSelfLoopCount
• #.undirectedSelfLoopCount

#.implementation

A string containing the graph instance's implementation name.

import Graph from 'graphology';

const graph = new Graph();
graph.implementation;
>>> 'graphology'

It can be useful if you ever need to optimize libraries based upon the knowledge that the given instance is from a specific implementation.
