Displaying attributes in Dash/Plotly results in KeyError

Question

I'm trying to visualize references from documents. For this, I have Elements.csv , which looks like this:

Doc,Description,DocumentID
SOP Laboratory,This SOP should be used in the lab,10414
Visual Design,Basics for Visual Design,1200139348
GMP,Good Manufacturing Practises,4638261
Windows PC manual,This manual describes how to use Windows PCs,271922

In Connections.csv , I have the references:

Source,Target
SOP Laboratory,Windows PC manual
SOP Laboratory,GMP
Visual Design,Windows PC manual

Ie there is a reference in SOP Laboratory , which points to Windows PC manual , etc.

The code I use to visualize this network works with Dash/Plotly:

import pandas as pd
import networkx as nx
import plotly.graph_objs as go
import plotly
import dash
import dash_core_components as dcc
import dash_html_components as html

## Dash setup

external_stylesheets = ['https://codepen.io/chriddyp/pen/bWLwgP.css']
app = dash.Dash(__name__, external_stylesheets=external_stylesheets)


## Data

edges = pd.read_csv('Connections.csv', encoding="utf8")
nodes = pd.read_csv('Elements.csv', encoding="utf8")


## Graph

G = nx.from_pandas_edgelist(edges, 'Source', 'Target')
nx.set_node_attributes(G, nodes.set_index('Doc')['Description'].to_dict(), 'Description')
nx.set_node_attributes(G, nodes.set_index('Doc')['DocumentID'].to_dict(), 'DocumentID')

pos = nx.spring_layout(G)

    G.nodes[node]['pos'] = list(pos[node])

    x0, y0 = G.nodes[edge[0]]['pos']

I found this code from this Github repo .

This results in: Wrong arrows

However, the direction of the error is wrong. (See the red arrow for the correct direction.)

What I want to achieve is this ("Bob" and "Type1" from the Github repo), ie display the document name, description and ID when hovering over the node: goalAttributes

However, when I comment lines out, like this

index = 0
for node in G.nodes():
    x, y = G.nodes[node]['pos']
    hovertext = "Document Name: " + str(G.nodes[node]['Doc']) + "<br>" + "Document ID: " + str(G.nodes[node]['DocumentID'])
    text = nodes['Doc'][index]
    node_trace['x'] += tuple([x])
    node_trace['y'] += tuple([y])
    node_trace['hovertext'] += tuple([hovertext])
    node_trace['text'] += tuple([text])
    index = index + 1

# for node, adjacencies in enumerate(G.adjacency()):
#     node_trace['marker']['color']+=tuple([len(adjacencies[1])])
#     node_info = adjacencies[0] #+ ' (' +str(adjacencies[1]) + ')' #+' (' +str(len(adjacencies[1])) + ' connections)'
#     node_trace['text']+=tuple([node_info])

However, this results in an error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\rothstem\Desktop\LearnDash\StackEX\app.py", line 73, in <module>
    hovertext = "Document Name: " + str(G.nodes[node]['Doc']) + "<br>" + "Document ID: " + str(G.nodes[node]['DocumentID'])
KeyError: 'Doc'

which I don't quite understand, since 'Doc' is defined above.

Answer 1

During your graph creation you created the node attribute "Description" :

nx.set_node_attributes(G, nodes.set_index('Doc')['Description'].to_dict(), 'Description')

So you simply need to replace "Doc" with "Description" :

hovertext = "Document Name: " + str(G.nodes[node]['Description']) + "<br>" + "Document ID: " + str(G.nodes[node]['DocumentID'])
