Graph (Spark 2.4.2 JavaDoc)

Object
- org.apache.spark.graphx.Graph<VD,ED>

Type Parameters:

VD - the vertex attribute type

ED - the edge attribute type

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

GraphImpl
```
public abstract class Graph<VD,ED>
extends Object
implements scala.Serializable
```
The Graph abstractly represents a graph with arbitrary objects associated with vertices and edges. The graph provides basic operations to access and manipulate the data associated with vertices and edges as well as the underlying structure. Like Spark RDDs, the graph is a functional data-structure in which mutating operations return new graphs.

```
    An RDD containing the vertices and their associated attributes.

    an RDD containing the vertices in this graph
    
    Note:
    
    vertex ids are unique.
  - edges
```
public abstract EdgeRDD<ED> edges()
```
    An RDD containing the edges and their associated attributes. The entries in the RDD contain just the source id and target id along with the edge data.
    
    Returns:
    
    an RDD containing the edges in this graph
    
    See Also:

  - triplets
```
public abstract RDD<EdgeTriplet<VD,ED>> triplets()
```
    An RDD containing the edge triplets, which are edges along with the vertex data associated with the adjacent vertices. The caller should use edges if the vertex data are not needed, i.e. if only the edge data and adjacent vertex ids are needed.
    Returns:
    
    an RDD containing edge triplets
    
    Example:
    This operation might be used to evaluate a graph coloring where we would like to check that both vertices are a different color.
    type Color = Int val graph: Graph[Color, Int] = GraphLoader.edgeListFile("hdfs://file.tsv") val numInvalid = graph.triplets.map(e => if (e.src.data == e.dst.data) 1 else 0).sum
  - persist

```
    Caches the vertices and edges associated with this graph at the specified storage level, ignoring any target storage levels previously set.
    
    Parameters:
    
    newLevel - the level at which to cache the graph.
    
    Returns:
    
    A reference to this graph for convenience.
  - cache
```
public abstract Graph<VD,ED> cache()

    Returns:
    
    (undocumented)
  - checkpoint
```
public abstract void checkpoint()
```
    Mark this Graph for checkpointing. It will be saved to a file inside the checkpoint directory set with SparkContext.setCheckpointDir() and all references to its parent RDDs will be removed. It is strongly recommended that this Graph is persisted in memory, otherwise saving it on a file will require recomputation.
  - isCheckpointed
```
public abstract boolean isCheckpointed()
```
    Return whether this Graph has been checkpointed or not. This returns true iff both the vertices RDD and edges RDD have been checkpointed.

    (undocumented)
  - unpersist
```
public abstract Graph<VD,ED> unpersist(boolean blocking)

    Parameters:
    
    blocking - (undocumented)
    
    Returns:
    
    (undocumented)

                                    scala.reflect.ClassTag<ED2> evidence$4)
```
    Transforms each edge attribute in the graph using the map function. The map function is not passed the vertex value for the vertices adjacent to the edge. If vertex values are desired, use mapTriplets.

The map function is given an iterator over edges within a logical partition as well as the partition's ID, and it should return a new iterator over the new values of each edge. The new iterator's elements must correspond one-to-one with the old iterator's elements. If adjacent vertex values are desired, use mapTriplets.

    val rawGraph: Graph[Int, Int] = someLoadFunction() val graph = rawGraph.mapTriplets[Int]( edge => edge.src.data - edge.dst.data)
    Note:
    
    This does not change the structure of the graph or modify the values of this graph. As a consequence the underlying index structures can be reused.

    Returns:
    
    (undocumented)
    
    Example:

public abstract <VD2,ED2> Graph<VD,ED> mask(Graph<VD2,ED2> other,
                                            scala.reflect.ClassTag<VD2> evidence$9,
                                            scala.reflect.ClassTag<ED2> evidence$10)
```
    Restricts the graph to only the vertices and edges that are also in other, but keeps the attributes from this graph.
    
    Parameters:
    
    other - the graph to project this graph onto
    
    evidence$9 - (undocumented)
    
    evidence$10 - (undocumented)
    
    Returns:
    
    a graph with vertices and edges that exist in both the current graph and other, with vertex and edge data from the current graph
  - groupEdges
```
public abstract Graph<VD,ED> groupEdges(scala.Function2<ED,ED,ED> merge)
```
    Merges multiple edges between two vertices into a single edge. For correct results, the graph must have been partitioned using partitionBy.
    
    Parameters:
    
    merge - the user-supplied commutative associative function to merge edge attributes for duplicate edges.
    
    Returns:
    
    The resulting graph with a single edge for each (source, dest) vertex pair.
  - aggregateMessages
```
public <A> VertexRDD<A> aggregateMessages(scala.Function1<EdgeContext<VD,ED,A>,scala.runtime.BoxedUnit> sendMsg,
                                          scala.Function2<A,A,A> mergeMsg,
                                          TripletFields tripletFields,
                                          scala.reflect.ClassTag<A> evidence$11)
```
    Aggregates values from the neighboring edges and vertices of each vertex. The user-supplied sendMsg function is invoked on each edge of the graph, generating 0 or more messages to be sent to either vertex in the edge. The mergeMsg function is then used to combine all messages destined to the same vertex.
    Parameters:
    
    sendMsg - runs on each edge, sending messages to neighboring vertices using the EdgeContext.
    
    mergeMsg - used to combine messages from sendMsg destined to the same vertex. This combiner should be commutative and associative.
    
    tripletFields - which fields should be included in the EdgeContext passed to the sendMsg function. If not all fields are needed, specifying this can improve performance.
    
    evidence$11 - (undocumented)
    
    Returns:
    
    (undocumented)
    
    Example:
    We can use this function to compute the in-degree of each vertex
    val rawGraph: Graph[_, _] = Graph.textFile("twittergraph") val inDeg: RDD[(VertexId, Int)] = rawGraph.aggregateMessages[Int](ctx => ctx.sendToDst(1), _ + _)
    Note:
    
    By expressing computation at the edge level we achieve maximum parallelism. This is one of the core functions in the Graph API that enables neighborhood level computation. For example this function can be used to count neighbors satisfying a predicate or implement PageRank.
  - outerJoinVertices
```
public abstract <U,VD2> Graph<VD2,ED> outerJoinVertices(RDD<scala.Tuple2<Object,U>> other,
                                                        scala.Function3<Object,VD,scala.Option<U>,VD2> mapFunc,
                                                        scala.reflect.ClassTag<U> evidence$13,
                                                        scala.reflect.ClassTag<VD2> evidence$14,
                                                        scala.Predef.$eq$colon$eq<VD,VD2> eq)
```
    Joins the vertices with entries in the table RDD and merges the results using mapFunc. The input table should contain at most one entry for each vertex. If no entry in other is provided for a particular vertex in the graph, the map function receives None.
    Parameters:
    
    other - the table to join with the vertices in the graph. The table should contain at most one entry for each vertex.
    
    mapFunc - the function used to compute the new vertex values. The map function is invoked for all vertices, even those that do not have a corresponding entry in the table.
    
    evidence$13 - (undocumented)
    
    evidence$14 - (undocumented)
    
    eq - (undocumented)
    
    Returns:
    
    (undocumented)
    
    Example:
    This function is used to update the vertices with new values based on external data. For example we could add the out-degree to each vertex record:
    
    val rawGraph: Graph[_, _] = Graph.textFile("webgraph") val outDeg: RDD[(VertexId, Int)] = rawGraph.outDegrees val graph = rawGraph.outerJoinVertices(outDeg) { (vid, data, optDeg) => optDeg.getOrElse(0) }
  - ops
```
public GraphOps<VD,ED> ops()
```
    The associated GraphOps object.
    
    Returns:
