pgr_apspJohnson - All Pairs Shortest Path, Johnson’s Algorithm

Name

pgr_apspJohnson - Returns all costs for each pair of nodes in the graph.

Synopsis

Johnson’s algorithm is a way to find the shortest paths between all pairs of vertices in a sparse, edge weighted, directed graph. Returns a set of pgr_costResult (seq, id1, id2, cost) rows for every pair of nodes in the graph.

pgr_costResult[] pgr_apspJohnson(sql text);

Description

sql:

a SQL query that should return the edges for the graph that will be analyzed:

SELECT source, target, cost FROM edge_table;
source:int4 identifier of the source vertex for this edge
target:int4 identifier of the target vertex for this edge
cost:float8 a positive value for the cost to traverse this edge

Returns set of pgr_costResult[]:

seq:row sequence
id1:source node ID
id2:target node ID
cost:cost to traverse from id1 to id2

Examples

SELECT seq, id1 AS from, id2 AS to, cost
    FROM pgr_apspJohnson(
        'SELECT source, target, cost FROM edge_table'
    );

 seq | from | to | cost
-----+------+----+------
   0 |    1 |  1 |    0
   1 |    1 |  2 |    1
   2 |    1 |  5 |    2
   3 |    1 |  6 |    3
[...]

The query uses the Sample Data network.
