Description
in ga.Graph.__init__
we can specify key_to_id
. I can't see any reason why this must be a stdlib.dict
and not any other class that implements the typing.Mapping
protocol (__getitem__
, __len__
, __iter__
). I have a usecase where I have a more memory efficient mapping than a dict and would like to use it.
However, whenever the id_to_key
property is used, this will create a full inverse mapping, undoing any memory efficiency. It would be great to be able to pass an inverse mapping optionally (id_to_key
) to avoid this calculation if possible. Currently I'm doing:
G = ga.Graph(..., key_to_id=...)
G._id_to_key = ...
but obviously this relies on setting the 'private' _id_to_key
member, which has no API stability guarantees. I'd be happy to implement this change!
