Graph::Traversal - traverse graphs
Don't use Graph::Traversal directly, use Graph::Traversal::DFS or Graph::Traversal::BFS instead.
use Graph; my $g = Graph->new; $g->add_edge(...); use Graph::Traversal::...; my $t = Graph::Traversal::...->new(%opt); $t->...
You can control how the graph is traversed by the various callback
parameters in the %opt
. In the parameters descriptions below the
$u and $v are vertices, and the $self is the traversal object itself.
The following callback parameters are available:
Called when traversing an edge that belongs to the traversal tree. Called with arguments ($u, $v, $self).
Called when an edge is met which either leads back to the traversal tree
(either a back_edge
, a down_edge
, or a cross_edge
).
Called with arguments ($u, $v, $self).
Called for edges in preorder. Called with arguments ($u, $v, $self).
Called for edges in postorder. Called with arguments ($u, $v, $self).
Called for back edges. Called with arguments ($u, $v, $self).
Called for down edges. Called with arguments ($u, $v, $self).
Called for cross edges. Called with arguments ($u, $v, $self).
Called for vertices in preorder. Called with arguments ($v, $self).
Called for vertices in postorder. Called with arguments ($v, $self).
Called when choosing the first root (start) vertex for traversal. Called with arguments ($self, $unseen) where $unseen is a hash reference with the unseen vertices as keys.
Called when choosing the next root (after the first one) vertex for
traversal (useful when the graph is not connected). Called with
arguments ($self, $unseen) where $unseen is a hash reference with
the unseen vertices as keys. If you want only the first reachable
subgraph to be processed, set the next_root to undef
.
Identical to defining first_root
and undefining next_root
.
Set this to true if you want the vertices to be processed in alphabetic order (and leave first_root/next_root undefined).
Set this to true if you want the vertices to be processed in numeric order (and leave first_root/next_root undefined).
Called when choosing the next vertex to visit. Called with arguments
($self, $next) where $next is a hash reference with the possible
next vertices as keys. Use this to provide a custom ordering for
choosing vertices, as opposed to next_numeric
or next_alphabetic
.
The parameters first_root
and next_successor
have a 'hierarchy'
of how they are determined: if they have been explicitly defined, use
that value. If not, use the value of next_alphabetic
, if that has
been defined. If not, use the value of next_numeric
, if that has
been defined. If not, the next vertex to be visited is chose randomly.
The following methods are available:
Return the unseen vertices in random order.
Return the seen vertices in random order.
Return the active fringe vertices in random order.
Return the vertices in preorder traversal order.
Return the vertices in postorder traversal order.
$v = $t->vertex_by_preorder($i)
Return the ith (0..$V-1) vertex by preorder.
$i = $t->preorder_by_vertex($v)
Return the preorder index (0..$V-1) by vertex.
$v = $t->vertex_by_postorder($i)
Return the ith (0..$V-1) vertex by postorder.
$i = $t->postorder_by_vertex($v)
Return the postorder index (0..$V-1) by vertex.
Return a hash with the vertices as the keys and their preorder indices as the values.
Return a hash with the vertices as the keys and their postorder indices as the values.
Return the traversal tree as a graph.
$t->has_state('s')
Test whether the traversal has state 's' attached to it.
$t->get_state('s')
Get the state 's' attached to the traversal (undef
if none).
$t->set_state('s', $s)
Set the state 's' attached to the traversal.
$t->delete_state('s')
Delete the state 's' from the traversal.
The following parameters are for backward compatibility to Graph 0.2xx:
Like next_root
.
Identical to having tree_edge
both non_tree_edge
defined
to be the same.
Like tree_edge
.
Like seed_edge
.
If in a callback you call the special terminate
method,
the traversal is terminated, no more vertices are traversed.
