Storing and Accessing node attributes python networkx

Question

I have a network of nodes created using python networkx. i want to store information in nodes such that i can access the information later based on the node lab

Answer 1

As of networkx v2.0, you can use:

import networkx as nx

G = nx.Graph()
G.add_node('abc', dob=1185, pob='usa', dayob='monday')
nx.get_node_attributes(G, 'dob')
> {'abc': 1185}

You can access this dictionary as usual:

{'abc': 1185}['abc']
> 1185
