networkx.convert_matrix.to_pandas_edgelist¶

to_pandas_edgelist(G, source='source', target='target', nodelist=None, dtype=None, order=None)[source]¶

Returns the graph edge list as a Pandas DataFrame.

Parameters

G (graph) – The NetworkX graph used to construct the Pandas DataFrame.
source (str or int, optional) – A valid column name (string or integer) for the source nodes (for the directed case).
target (str or int, optional) – A valid column name (string or integer) for the target nodes (for the directed case).
nodelist (list, optional) – Use only nodes specified in nodelist

Returns

df – Graph edge list

Return type

Pandas DataFrame

Examples

>>> G = nx.Graph(
...     [
...         ("A", "B", {"cost": 1, "weight": 7}),
...         ("C", "E", {"cost": 9, "weight": 10}),
...     ]
... )
>>> df = nx.to_pandas_edgelist(G, nodelist=["A", "C"])
>>> df[["source", "target", "cost", "weight"]]
  source target  cost  weight
0      A      B     1       7
1      C      E     9      10
