FSharpGephi streamer was accepted in The Journal of Open Source Software (JOSS) with version 1.1.6. If you use this software in your research, please cite:

Schneider et al., (2019). FSharpGephiStreamer: An idiomatic bridge between F# and network visualization. Journal of Open Source Software, 4(38), 1445, https://doi.org/10.21105/joss.01445

Introduction

Gephi is the leading visualization and exploration software for all kinds of graphs and networks. Gephi is open-source and free

FSharpGephi streamer tackles the gap between the capabilities of F# in regards of strongly typed handling of large data sets and the visualization capabilites of Gephi by directly connecting them to each other. It enables users to convert any type of node/edge data to gephi interpretable objects and put them into gephi through F# interactive without the need of any UI interaction but the starting of the streaming server.

Demo
