\page lgf-format LEMON Graph Format (LGF)
|
alpar@156
|
25 |
|
alpar@156
|
26 |
The \e LGF is a <em>column oriented</em>
|
alpar@156
|
27 |
file format for storing graphs and associated data like
|
alpar@156
|
28 |
node and edge maps.
|
alpar@156
|
29 |
|
alpar@156
|
30 |
Each line with \c '#' first non-whitespace
|
alpar@156
|
31 |
character is considered as a comment line.
|
alpar@156
|
32 |
|
alpar@156
|
33 |
Otherwise the file consists of sections starting with
|
alpar@156
|
34 |
a header line. The header lines starts with an \c '@' character followed by the
|
alpar@156
|
35 |
type of section. The standard section types are \c \@nodes, \c
|
alpar@156
|
36 |
\@arcs and \c \@edges
|
alpar@156
|
37 |
and \@attributes. Each header line may also have an optional
|
alpar@156
|
38 |
\e name, which can be use to distinguish the sections of the same
|
alpar@156
|
39 |
type.
|
alpar@156
|
40 |
|
alpar@156
|
41 |
The standard sections are column oriented, each line consists of
|
alpar@156
|
42 |
<em>token</em>s separated by whitespaces. A token can be \e plain or
|
alpar@156
|
43 |
\e quoted. A plain token is just a sequence of non-whitespace characters,
|
alpar@156
|
44 |
while a quoted token is a
|
alpar@156
|
45 |
character sequence surrounded by double quotes, and it can also
|
alpar@209
|
46 |
contain whitespaces and escape sequences.
|
alpar@156
|
47 |
|
alpar@156
|
48 |
The \c \@nodes section describes a set of nodes and associated
|
kpeter@192
|
49 |
maps. The first is a header line, its columns are the names of the
|
alpar@156
|
50 |
maps appearing in the following lines.
|
alpar@156
|
51 |
One of the maps must be called \c
|
alpar@156
|
52 |
"label", which plays special role in the file.
|
alpar@156
|
53 |
The following
|
alpar@156
|
54 |
non-empty lines until the next section describes nodes of the
|
alpar@156
|
55 |
graph. Each line contains the values of the node maps
|
alpar@156
|
56 |
associated to the current node.

|

The \c \@arcs section is very similar to the \c \@nodes section, it
|
alpar@756
|
67 |
again starts with a header line describing the names of the maps, but
|
alpar@756
|
68 |
the \c "label" map is not obligatory here. The following lines
|
alpar@756
|
69 |
describe the arcs. The first two tokens of each line are the source
|
alpar@756
|
70 |
and the target node of the arc, respectively, then come the map
|
alpar@156
|
71 |
values. The source and target tokens must be node labels.

If there is no map in the \c \@arcs section at all, then it must be
|
alpar@756
|
82 |
indicated by a sole '-' sign in the first line.

The \c \@edges is just a synonym of \c \@arcs. The \@arcs section can
|
deba@201
|
93 |
also store the edge set of an undirected graph. In such case there is
|
deba@201
|
94 |
a conventional method for store arc maps in the file, if two columns
|
alpar@756
|
95 |
have the same caption with \c '+' and \c '-' prefix, then these columns
|
deba@201
|
96 |
can be regarded as the values of an arc map.
|
alpar@156
|
97 |
|
alpar@156
|
98 |
The \c \@attributes section contains key-value pairs, each line
|
deba@201
|
99 |
consists of two tokens, an attribute name, and then an attribute
|
deba@201
|
100 |
value. The value of the attribute could be also a label value of a
|
deba@201
|
101 |
node or an edge, or even an edge label prefixed with \c '+' or \c '-',
|
deba@201
|
102 |
which regards to the forward or backward directed arc of the
|
deba@201
|
103 |
corresponding edge.

The \e LGF can contain extra sections, but there is no restriction on
|
deba@162
|
113 |
the format of such sections.
