Description
===========

**spqrtree** is a pure Python implementation of the SPQR-tree data
structure for biconnected graphs.  It decomposes a biconnected graph
into its triconnected components (S, P, Q, and R nodes) and organizes
them as a tree.

SPQR-trees are a classical tool in graph theory, widely used for
planarity testing, graph drawing, and network analysis.

The implementation is based on the Gutwenger & Mutzel (2001) linear-time
algorithm, with corrections to Hopcroft & Tarjan (1973), and follows the
SPQR-tree data structure defined by Di Battista & Tamassia (1996).

Features:

- Pure Python --- no compiled extensions or external dependencies.
- Handles multigraphs (parallel edges between the same vertex pair).
- Simple ``dict``-based input for quick prototyping.
- Typed package with PEP 561 support.
- Requires Python 3.10 or later.


Installation
============

You can install spqrtree with ``pip``:

::

    pip install spqrtree

You may also install the latest source from the
`spqrtree GitHub repository`_.

::

    pip install git+https://github.com/imacat/spqrtree.git


Quick Start
===========

.. code-block:: python

    from spqrtree import SPQRTree, NodeType

    # K4 complete graph
    graph = {
        1: [2, 3, 4],
        2: [1, 3, 4],
        3: [1, 2, 4],
        4: [1, 2, 3],
    }
    tree = SPQRTree(graph)
    print(tree.root.type)     # NodeType.R
    print(len(tree.nodes()))  # number of SPQR-tree nodes

Acknowledgments
===============

This project was written from scratch in pure Python but drew
inspiration from the `SageMath`_ project.  The SPQR-tree
implementation in SageMath served as a valuable reference for
both its implementation approach and its comprehensive test
cases.

Development was assisted by `Claude Code`_ (Anthropic).
