![]() ![]() As such the code as it stands right now will only graph your first 50 friends (and their first 50 friends). Update: just discovered, as a result of experimenting, that, like other Plazes API method, the one that I’m using to grab “trustees” only returns 50 results at a time. And the “retrieve trustee XML from Plazes” relies on an unsupported, undocumented API method, and so is subject to disappearing at any time. In any case, it will take a while - 5 minutes, perhaps - to generate a decent sized friends network. If you’ve got a Mac and want to try this for yourself, just install NodeBox and and then grab my Python code and adapt as required (you really just need to change the line t = PlazesRelations(‘ruk’) to use your Plazes username instead of mine).Ī couple of warnings: if you’ve got a lot of friends, or if some of your friends have a lot of friends, this script will tax the Graph library - it’s designed, say the docs, for “small graphs (<200 elements)”. There are 732 individual users shown (I have 57 immediate friends). A connection between two users (in graphing terms, an “edge”) shows a Plazes “friendship” between those two users - i.e. The graph shows my immediate friends, and also their friends. You can grab a higher resolution PDF of the graph if you want to zoom in for details. Here, for example, is a graph of my Plazes friends network: I love network graphs and the NodeBox Graph library is an add-on for NodeBox that makes it really, really easy to create them. Run that number through 3 separate nodes of add1 divide1 and multiply1. Overral description of the diagram: You get a number in a defined range from range1 node. ![]() #Nodebox download mac os xI’ve been experimenting with NodeBox today: it’s a Mac OS X application with a Python engine that’s designed to make it easy to create 2D visualizations.
