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

Take currently selected edges and extends the selection to connected nodes, regardless of directionality.

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

>>> select_nodes_connected_by_selected_edges()
{'nodes': [107504, 107503, ...], 'edges': [108033, 108034]}
>>> select_nodes_connected_by_selected_edges(network='My Network')
{'nodes': [107504, 107503, ...], 'edges': [108033, 108034]}
>>> select_nodes_connected_by_selected_edges(network=52)
{'nodes': [107504, 107503, ...], 'edges': [108033, 108034]}

Note

In the return value, node list is the SUIDs of selected nodes, and edge list is the SUIDs of newly selected edges
