py4cytoscape.network_selection.invert_edge_selection

invert_edge_selection(network=None, base_url='http://127.0.0.1:1234/v1')[source]

Select all edges that were not selected and deselect all edges that were selected.

Parameters
  • network (SUID or str or None) – Name or SUID of a network. Default is the “current” network active in Cytoscape.

  • base_url (str) – Ignore unless you need to specify a custom domain, port or version to connect to the CyREST API. Default is http://127.0.0.1:1234 and the latest version of the CyREST API supported by this version of py4cytoscape.

Returns

{‘nodes’: [node list], ‘edges’: [edge list]}

Return type

dict

Raises
  • CyError – if network name or SUID doesn’t exist

  • requests.exceptions.RequestException – if can’t connect to Cytoscape or Cytoscape returns an error

Examples

>>> invert_edge_selection()
{'nodes': [], 'edges': [104432, 104431, ...]}
>>> invert_edge_selection(network='My Network')
{}
>>> invert_edge_selection(network=52)
{'nodes': [], 'edges': [104432, 104431, ...]}

Note

In the return value, node list is always empty, and edge list is the SUIDs of selected edges – dict is {} if no edges remain selected
