Exploring a Twitter Network With Memgraph in a Jupyter Notebook
Blog post from Memgraph
The tutorial provides a step-by-step guide to using Memgraph, a graph database platform, for analyzing Twitter networks through a Jupyter Notebook. It outlines the prerequisites such as installing Jupyter, Docker, GQLAlchemy, and Pandas, followed by instructions on setting up Memgraph using Docker. The tutorial demonstrates how to connect to Memgraph with GQLAlchemy, define a graph schema using Python classes, and create nodes and relationships with Cypher queries, a query language for graph databases. It also explains importing data from CSV files into Memgraph, querying the database, and retrieving results using both Cypher and the GQLAlchemy query builder. Additionally, it covers calculating PageRank for nodes to assess their importance within the network and visualizing the graph in Memgraph Lab, a browser-based interface, to make it more descriptive. The tutorial encourages users to explore Memgraph Playground for additional use cases and join the Discord community for support and collaboration.
