Description:

This plugin converts your network into a gexf file. This file is sent to a "Gist" of Github, where it becomes publicly accessible. Then, a link is created, which allows you to view, explore and share your network with the Retina web application. Be careful, do not publish your networks if the data is confidential!

Gephi Plugin: Publish to the web

This is a work initiated during the Gephi Code Retreat (Aug 29 to Sept 2, 2022). The plugin allows users to publish their network to the web, directly from the Gephi desktop app.

Function of the plugin

  • the plugin's interface can be accessed via a new item added to the File -> Export menu of Gephi.
  • the user needs to follow a series of steps to authenticate
  • then, the user can publish the network currently open in Gephi. The network gets exported as a gexf file hosted as a Github's gist.
  • the users get a url to the Retina web app, that allows them to explore this gexf directly from their browser
