CLI for WebGraph
Command-line interface for the Rust implementation of the WebGraph framework for graph compression.
This crate provides the webgraph CLI tool with various subcommands for working
with compressed graphs. The tool supports:
- Building accessory data structures (Elias-Fano offsets, DCF)
- Converting graphs between formats (arcs, ASCII, endianness)
- Transforming graphs (transpose, simplify)
- Analyzing graphs (code statistics)
- Running algorithms (Layered Label Propagation)
- Benchmarking graph operations
Each module corresponds to a group of commands, and each command is implemented as a submodule.
Subcommands
analyze: computes statistics on graphs;bench: benchmark graph operations;build: builds accessory graph data structures;check: checks coherence of graph files;from: ingests data into graphs;perm: creates and manipulates permutations;run: runs algorithms on graph;to: converts graphs between representations;transform: applies transformations to graphs.
Separate Binaries
This crate also provides specialized standalone binaries:
webgraph-dist: tools for computing graph properties based on distances, including measures of centrality (HyperBall, ExactSumSweep);webgraph-sccs: computes strongly connected components;webgraph-rank: computes centrality measures on graphs.
Environment Variables
RUST_MIN_STACK: Minimum thread stack size (in bytes); we suggestRUST_MIN_STACK=8388608(8MiB)TMPDIR: Where to store temporary files (potentially very large ones)RUST_LOG: Configuration forenv_logger
