Hi, I am working on a very large graph of companies and wanted to make some functions to easily filter out certain subgraphs I would need for some calculations.
So I made a graph G and populated it with nodes and edges and some internal property maps because I don't want to always remake this graph. The point is to just write the complete graph out to a file once I get through all the data cleaning and have a final graph in a file. So this gives me: G, a <Graph object, directed, with 11944189 vertices and 7828750 edges at 0x7f49254e90f0> with G.list_properties() ID (vertex) (type: string) company_country (edge) (type: string) shareholder_country (edge) (type: string) shareholderdirect (edge) (type: double) Now I just want to do a filtering based on these properties as suggested earlier in this forum: g_AT = GraphView(G, efilt=G.ep.company_country.a == 'AT') But as mentioned in the docs for internal properties: "Internal graph property maps behave slightly differently. Instead of returning the property map object, the value itself is returned from the dictionaries" Which I guess is why running G.ep.company_country.a gives me None, and running G.ep['company_country'][G.edges().next()] gives me 'AT'. So for filtering I now do: ep_filter = G.new_ep('bool') for e in G.edges(): ep_filter[e] = G.ep['company_country'][e] == 'AT' But I was wondering if there is some way to not have to go through this edge by edge but rather just get the whole PropertyArray returned which would be more elegant and avoid having to constantly make new boolean properties. PS: for the double type, G.ep.shareholderdirect.a does give me a nice PropertyArray which I can directly use in the form of G.ep.shareholderdirect.a > .5, which gives me an easy to use filtering array to input into GraphViews.
