A graph is composed of a set of nodes and a set of edges connecting pairs of nodes.
There are three primary interfaces provided to represent graphs. In order of increasing
complexity they are: Graph
, ValueGraph
, and Network
. You should generally
prefer the simplest interface that satisfies your use case. See the
"Choosing the right graph type" section of the Guava User Guide for more details.
Network
supports the following use cases (definitions of
terms):
Network
The implementation classes that common.graph
provides are not public, by design. To
create an instance of one of the built-in implementations of Network
, use the NetworkBuilder
class:
MutableNetwork<Integer, MyEdge> graph = NetworkBuilder.directed().build();
NetworkBuilder.build()
returns an instance of MutableNetwork
, which is a
subtype of Network
that provides methods for adding and removing nodes and edges. If you
do not need to mutate a graph (e.g. if you write a method than runs a read-only algorithm on the
graph), you should use the non-mutating Network
interface, or an ImmutableNetwork
.
You can create an immutable copy of an existing Network
using ImmutableNetwork.copyOf(Network)
:
ImmutableNetwork<Integer, MyEdge> immutableGraph = ImmutableNetwork.copyOf(graph);
Instances of ImmutableNetwork
do not implement MutableNetwork
(obviously!) and
are contractually guaranteed to be unmodifiable and thread-safe.
The Guava User Guide has more information on (and examples of) building graphs.
See the Guava User Guide for the common.graph
package ("Graphs Explained") for

Graph
. The resulting Graph
will have
an edge connecting node A to node B if this Network
has an edge connecting A to B.
If this network allows parallel edges
, parallel edges will be
treated as if collapsed into a single edge. For example, the degree(Object)
of a node
in the Graph
view may be less than the degree of the same node in this Network
.

endpoints
(in the order, if

Unlike the other EndpointPair
-accepting methods, this method does not throw if the
endpoints are unordered and the graph is directed; it simply returns false
. This is for
consistency with Graph.hasEdgeConnecting(EndpointPair)
and ValueGraph.hasEdgeConnecting(EndpointPair)
.
boolean equals(@Nullable Object object)
true
iff object
is a Network
that has the same elements and the
same structural relationships as those in this network.
Thus, two networks A and B are equal if all of the following are true:
directedness
.
node sets
.
edge sets
.
Network properties besides directedness
do not affect equality.
For example, two networks may be considered equal even if one allows parallel edges and the
other doesn't. Additionally, the order in which nodes or edges are added to the network, and
the order in which they are iterated over, are irrelevant.
