Load An Edge-list Into Graph-tool

I want to load an edge-list into graph-tool. The vertex-indices in my list are not sequential, so I would like them to be automatically added as vertex_properties. As far as I unde

Solution 1:

The answer is right there in the documentation:

"...a vertex property map with the vertex values is returned."

Note it says "returned", not "added to the internal property map list".

Just do:

name = G.add_edge_list(edge_list, hashed=True, eprops=eprops)

and name is the property map you want.
