Xilinx Community Detection for TigerGraph Installation¶

Install the Community Detection Software¶

Follow the steps in only one of the two sections below.

Install the Community Detection from a Package¶

Get the installation package amd-graphanalytics-install-1.5.9.tar.gz from the Database Analytics POC Secure Site. This package contains the Community Detection as well as its dependencies: XRT, XRM, the Alveo U50 Platform, and the Louvain Modularity Alveo Product.
Install the Community Detection product and its dependencies by un-tarring the package and running the included install script.

tar xzf amd-graphanalytics-install-1.5.9.tar.gz
cd amd-graphanalytics-install && ./install.sh

Install the Community Detection plug-in into the TigerGraph installation. This step makes TigerGraph aware of the Community Detection features.

/opt/xilinx/apps/graphanalytics/integration/Tigergraph-3.x/comdetect/0.6/install.sh

Note

If you only need to build applications utilizing Xilinx GraphAnalytics products, you can skip the section “Collaborating on Community Detection Plugin” below.

Collaborating on Community Detection Plugin¶

Follow the instructions below if you want to collaborate and contribute to the Xilinx Louvain Modularity Alveo Product and Community Detection for TigerGraph 3.x. Both products reside in one GitHub repository.

Clone the Xilinx Graph Analytics repository from GitHub.

git clone https://github.com/Xilinx/graphanalytics.git

Build and install the Louvain Modularity package. The Ubuntu apt package manager is used as an example.

cd louvainmod
make dist
sudo apt install --reinstall ./package/xilinx-louvainmod-0.6_18.04-x86_64.deb

Build and install the Community Detection package. (Replace the package installation command and name for your server’s OS.)

cd plugin/tigergraph/comdetect
make dist
sudo apt install --reinstall ./package/xilinx-comdetect-tigergraph-0.6_18.04-x86_64.deb

Install the Community Detection plug-in into the TigerGraph installation. This step makes TigerGraph aware of the Community Detection features.

/opt/xilinx/apps/graphanalytics/integration/Tigergraph-3.x/comdetect/0.6/install.sh

Uninstalling the Community Detection¶

You can uninstall the Community Detection from TigerGraph by running the install script with the -u option:

/opt/xilinx/apps/graphanalytics/integration/Tigergraph-3.x/comdetect/0.6/install.sh -u

TIP: To avoid TigerGraph errors, uninstall any queries and UDFs that use the Community Detection, before uninstalling the Community Detection itself.
