The package can now be found at https://github.com/dart-lang/tools/tree/main/pkgs/graphs
Graph algorithms that do not specify a particular approach for representing a Graph.
Functions in this package will take arguments that provide the mechanism for traversing the graph. For example two common approaches for representing a graph:
class Graph {
Map<Node, List<Node>> nodes;
}
class Node {
// Interesting data
}
class Graph {
Node root;
}
class Node {
List<Node> edges;
// Interesting data
}
Any representation can be adapted to the needs of the algorithm:
- Some algorithms need to associate data with each node in the graph. If the
node type
T
does not correctly or efficiently implementhashCode
or==
, you may provide optionalequals
and/orhashCode
functions are parameters. - Algorithms which need to traverse the graph take a
edges
function which provides the reachable nodes.(node) => graph[node]
(node) => node.edges
Graphs that are resolved asynchronously will have similar functions which
return FutureOr
.
