Installation instructions

NOTE by Kevin (Philogicatician):

Using the GraphBased argument in draw(h, GraphBased, ...) stopped working as per this open issue from the original maintainer pszufe. At the moment, it seems using hypernetx is necessary, and I'm not sure what "other options" pszufe might be referring to.

Prerequisites for plotting

Simplehypergraphs can optionally use (among other options) the Python's hypernetx library so if you want the hypernetx plotting to work you need to install it first along with its all dependent libraries. In Julia command line REPL press ] for the Julia package manager and run:

(v1.5) pkg> add PyCall Conda

Now press backspace to exit the package manager and run the following installation code:

using PyCall
using Conda
Conda.runconda(`install matplotlib --yes`)
Conda.runconda(`install networkx --yes`)
Conda.runconda(`install pandas --yes`)
run(`$(PyCall.python) -m pip install hypernetx`)

In case of throubleshooting to check whether hypernetx is properly configured with Julia you can always run the following test:

using PyCall
pyimport("hypernetx")

For plotting we also use the Jupyter notebook. The installation instructions are here

Installation

In Julia command line REPL press ] for the Julia package manager and run:

(v1.5) pkg> add SimpleHypergraphs
