Support for vertex and hyperedge values #12

Closed pszufe closed 5 years ago

pszufe commented 5 years ago

Support for vertex and hyperedge values following the discussion at issue #2 This also includes several new tests and a bug correction for function set_index!

Also with metadata added probably we should consider saving the information about the types of a Hypergraph, as now it might start becoming relevant. This also probably means that we should implement a binary format (even based on a serialize/deserialize I think should be enough for practical purposes).

pszufe commented 5 years ago

According to my tests the best option for graph serialization is the BSON.jl. On one hand BSON format provides cross-language compatibility and on the other hand this library has a good stability.

pszufe commented 5 years ago

On other note - since serialization is currenty being developed by the Salerno team - I definitely propose to handle that in a separate pull request.

BSON.jl - OK. Serialization: who does work on serialization?

pszufe commented 5 years ago

I understand that @spagnuolocarmine and @aleant93 currently work on the hypergraph storage issues.

This is independent (they are working on comments). We do not have do do it in this PR, but then please open an Issue to fix it later.
