following the discussion from the June dev meeting, we want to open a discussion about Graph nomenclature (specifically when you need to work with multiple graphs simultaneously e.g. from libpysal and networkx at once) it might be easier to rename Graph
to GeoGraph
or similar. Opening here for discussion so we can vote in the next dev meeting
I am tentatively for the renaming as it is going to be clearer to the user what is required where and avoids some confusion between different graph representations. But I also don't feel super strongly about this. It's also going to break some of my research code and teaching materials but I can deal with that easily.
xref: https://github.com/pysal/momepy/issues/579
I have no strong opinions either way, so probably not a bad to go with the more distinctive GeoGraph
. Wasn't GeoGraph
the original name that was under consideration when the refactor first started out?
Existence of this https://geograph.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ may affect the decision here...
Are there any other alternative names being thrown around?
at the steering committee meeting this morning we voted to keep Graph
for the time being
complete via #733
Two teaching materials where one is derived from the other and updated to use Graph instead of W.
Apart from the different datasets, it is nearly 1:1 and can be used as a basis of the migration guide.
