all_shortest_paths

all_shortest_paths(G, source, target, weight=None)[source]

Compute all shortest paths in the graph.

Parameters:
  • G (NetworkX graph) –
  • source (node) – Starting node for path.
  • target (node) – Ending node for path.
  • weight (None or string, optional (default = None)) – If None, every edge has weight/distance/cost 1. If a string, use this edge attribute as the edge weight. Any edge attribute not present defaults to 1.
Returns:

paths – A generator of all paths between source and target.

Return type:

generator of lists

Examples

>>> G=nx.Graph()
>>> G.add_path([0,1,2])
>>> G.add_path([0,10,2])
>>> print([p for p in nx.all_shortest_paths(G,source=0,target=2)])
[[0, 1, 2], [0, 10, 2]]

Notes

There may be many shortest paths between the source and target.
