Graphx Visualization

Question

I am looking for a way to visualize the graph constructed in Spark\'s Graphx. As far as I know Graphx doesn\'t have any visualization methods so I need to export the data from G

Answer 1

you can use either Gephi or d3 from zeppelin. Check D3.js In Action by Elijah Meeks and Spark GraphX in Action by Michael S. Malak

Give it a go as below from zeppelin in scala and js borrowed from grapxInAction:

import org.apache.spark.graphx._
import scala.reflect.ClassTag

def drawGraph[VD:ClassTag,ED:ClassTag](g:Graph[VD,ED]) = {

val u = java.util.UUID.randomUUID
val v = g.vertices.collect.map(_._1)
println("""%html
 



 """)
 }
