Wrapping Up
We’ve seen in this chapter how we can use Elixir to build native graph data structures using the libgraph package.
We started with some graph basics. Then we looked at how to serialize libgraph graphs and how we can use macros to simplify building wrapper functions to our GraphCommons functions for working with stored graphs and queries.
We next looked at how to visualize these graphs by using the DOT serializer and either converting them to PNG format for display or importing them into a drawing program for further elaboration.
We’ll carry on with our native graph explorations in the next chapter using our book graph model.
