🌺 Node

Classes:

Node([name, sep])

Node is an extension of BaseNode, and is able to extend to any Python class.

class bigtree.node.node.Node(name: str = '', sep: str = '/', **kwargs: Any)

Bases: BaseNode

Node is an extension of BaseNode, and is able to extend to any Python class. Nodes can have attributes if they are initialized from Node, dictionary, or pandas DataFrame.

Nodes can be linked to each other with parent and children setter methods.

>>> from bigtree import Node
>>> a = Node("a")
>>> b = Node("b")
>>> c = Node("c")
>>> d = Node("d")
>>> b.parent = a
>>> b.children = [c, d]

Directly passing parent argument.

>>> from bigtree import Node
>>> a = Node("a")
>>> b = Node("b", parent=a)
>>> c = Node("c", parent=b)
>>> d = Node("d", parent=b)

Directly passing children argument.

>>> from bigtree import Node
>>> d = Node("d")
>>> c = Node("c")
>>> b = Node("b", children=[c, d])
>>> a = Node("a", children=[b])

Node Creation

Node can be created by instantiating a Node class or by using a dictionary. If node is created with dictionary, all keys of dictionary will be stored as class attributes.

>>> from bigtree import Node
>>> a = Node.from_dict({"name": "a", "age": 90})

Node Attributes

These are node attributes that have getter and/or setter methods.

Get and set Node configuration

1. sep: Get/set separator for path name

Get Node configuration

1. node_name: Get node name, without accessing name directly

2. path_name: Get path name from root, separated by sep

Node Methods

These are methods available to be performed on Node.

Node methods

1. show(): Print tree to console

2. hshow(): Print tree in horizontal orientation to console

---

Methods:

hshow(**kwargs)	Print tree in horizontal orientation to console, takes in same keyword arguments as hprint_tree function
show(**kwargs)	Print tree to console, takes in same keyword arguments as print_tree function

Attributes:

node_name	Get node name
path_name	Get path name, separated by self.sep
sep	Get separator, gets from root node

hshow(**kwargs: Any) → None

Print tree in horizontal orientation to console, takes in same keyword arguments as hprint_tree function

property node_name: str

Get node name

Returns:

(str)

property path_name: str

Get path name, separated by self.sep

Returns:

(str)

property sep: str

Get separator, gets from root node

Returns:

(str)

show(**kwargs: Any) → None

Print tree to console, takes in same keyword arguments as print_tree function
