draw_networkx_labels(G, pos, labels=None, font_size=12, font_color='k', font_family='sans-serif', font_weight='normal', alpha=1.0, ax=None, **kwds)[source]¶

Draw node labels on the graph G.

Parameters:

G : graph A networkx graph pos : dictionary A dictionary with nodes as keys and positions as values. Positions should be sequences of length 2. labels : dictionary, optional (default=None) Node labels in a dictionary keyed by node of text labels font_size : int Font size for text labels (default=12) font_color : string Font color string (default=’k’ black) font_family : string Font family (default=’sans-serif’) font_weight : string Font weight (default=’normal’) alpha : float The text transparency (default=1.0) ax : Matplotlib Axes object, optional Draw the graph in the specified Matplotlib axes.
