Get all edges linked to a given node in a networkx graph

If the graph is undirected, you can use

G.edges(node)

In networkx 2.x this is an EdgeDataView object. In networkx 1.x this is a list - if you want a generator in 1.x rather than getting the whole list, G.edges_iter(node) works (this no longer exists in 2.x).

If the graph is directed the command above will not give the in-edges. Use

G.in_edges(node)
G.out_edges(node) 

These are views in 2.x. In 1.x these are lists and there are generator options: G.in_edges_iter(node) and G.out_edges_iter(node)


You can use the method edges on a node for an un-directed graph:

G.edges(['my_node_name'])

or the function edges

networkx.edges(G, ['my_node_name'])

But for directed graphs the above method will only give the out-edges; there you need to call and combine both in_edges() and out_edges().
