Lightweight computation graphs for Python

Graphtik is an an understandable and lightweight Python module for building and running ordered graphs of computations. The API posits a fair compromise between features and complexity, without precluding any. It can be used as is to build machine learning pipelines for data science projects. It should be extendable to act as the core for a custom ETL engine or a workflow-processor for interdependent files and processes.

Graphtik sprang from Graphkit to experiment with Python 3.6+ features.

Quick start

Here’s how to install:

pip install graphtik

OR with dependencies for plotting support (and you need to install Graphviz suite separately, with your OS tools):

pip install graphtik[plot]

Here’s a Python script with an example Graphtik computation graph that produces multiple outputs (a * b, a - a * b, and abs(a - a * b) ** 3):

>>> from operator import mul, sub
>>> from functools import partial
>>> from graphtik import compose, operation

>>> # Computes |a|^p.
>>> def abspow(a, p):
...     c = abs(a) ** p
...     return c

Compose the mul, sub, and abspow functions into a computation graph:

>>> graphop = compose(
...     "graphop",
...     operation(name="mul1", needs=["a", "b"], provides=["ab"])(mul),
...     operation(name="sub1", needs=["a", "ab"], provides=["a_minus_ab"])(sub),
...     operation(name="abspow1", needs=["a_minus_ab"], provides=["abs_a_minus_ab_cubed"])
...     (partial(abspow, p=3))
... )

Run the graph and request all of the outputs:

>>> graphop(a=2, b=5)
{'a': 2, 'b': 5, 'ab': 10, 'a_minus_ab': -8, 'abs_a_minus_ab_cubed': 512}

… or request a subset of outputs:

>>> solution = graphop.compute({'a': 2, 'b': 5}, outputs=["a_minus_ab"])
>>> solution
{'a_minus_ab': -8}

… and plot the results (if in jupyter, no need to create the file):

>>> solution.plot('graphop.svg')    # doctest: +SKIP
