A custom Streamlit component for link analysis, built with Cytoscape.js and Streamlit.

Overview

This project provides a Streamlit custom component for visualizing and interacting with graph data using Cytoscape.js. It supports customizable edge and node styles, labels, colors, captions, and icons.

Demo

A demo deployed with Render can be accessed here.

Features

  • Customizable Node and Edge Styles: Easily define the appearance of nodes and edges using a variety of style options.
  • Material Icons Support: Supports a subset of Material icons for styling nodes which can be passed by name (e.g., icon='person'). Custom icons can still be used by passing a URL (e.g., icon='url(...)').
  • Customizable Layouts: Choose from different layout algorithms to arrange the graph elements.
  • Interactive Features:
    • Toolbar with fullscreen, JSON export, and layout refresh buttons.
    • View control bar for zooming, fitting, and centering the view, making it easier to navigate your graphs.
    • View all properties of the selected elements in a side panel.
    • Highlights neighboring nodes or edges when an element is selected.
  • Node Actions (Expand / Remove): Enable node removal and expansion using the node_actions parameter. Removal can be triggered by a delete keydown or a remove button click, while expansion occurs on a double-click or expand button click. When these events are triggered, the event details and selected node IDs are sent back to the Streamlit app as the component’s return value.

Installation

To install the package, use pip:

pip install st-link-analysis

Usage

Here is a basic example of how to use the component in your Streamlit app:

import streamlit as st
from st_link_analysis import st_link_analysis, NodeStyle, EdgeStyle

st.set_page_config(layout="wide")

# Sample Data
elements = {
    "nodes": [
        {"data": {"id": 1, "label": "PERSON", "name": "Streamlit"}},
        {"data": {"id": 2, "label": "PERSON", "name": "Hello"}},
        {"data": {"id": 3, "label": "PERSON", "name": "World"}},
        {"data": {"id": 4, "label": "POST", "content": "x"}},
        {"data": {"id": 5, "label": "POST", "content": "y"}},
    ],
    "edges": [
        {"data": {"id": 6, "label": "FOLLOWS", "source": 1, "target": 2}},
        {"data": {"id": 7, "label": "FOLLOWS", "source": 2, "target": 3}},
        {"data": {"id": 8, "label": "POSTED", "source": 3, "target": 4}},
        {"data": {"id": 9, "label": "POSTED", "source": 1, "target": 5}},
        {"data": {"id": 10, "label": "QUOTES", "source": 5, "target": 4}},
    ],
}

# Style node & edge groups
node_styles = [
    NodeStyle("PERSON", "#FF7F3E", "name", "person"),
    NodeStyle("POST", "#2A629A", "content", "description"),
]

edge_styles = [
    EdgeStyle("FOLLOWS", caption='label', directed=True),
    EdgeStyle("POSTED", caption='label', directed=True),
    EdgeStyle("QUOTES", caption='label', directed=True),
]

# Render the component
st.markdown("### st-link-analysis: Example")
st_link_analysis(elements, "cose", node_styles, edge_styles)
