Convert XGMML to another file type
To convert XGMML graphs to another format, you need Cytoscape or other Data software.
Convert a file to XGMML
To convert other file formats to the "XML Graph Data File" file type, you need software like Cytoscape or a similar tool.
About XGMML files
An .XGMML file is an eXtensible Graph Markup and Modeling Language document. It stores complex network graphs, nodes, edges, and visual attributes using a structured XML format. It is heavily utilized in bioinformatics, social network analysis, and complex systems modeling. You can open, view, and analyze these files using specialized software like Cytoscape or read more about the format on Wikipedia. The primary disadvantage of the .XGMML format is its lack of accessibility. Because it is raw XML data, the files quickly become massive and are completely unreadable to the human eye. Furthermore, standard document viewers or web browsers cannot render the mathematical coordinates into a visual graph. Users typically need to convert the data structure to GraphML or SIF for portability, or visually export the final layout to SVG or PNG so clients and colleagues can actually see the network. This file format is difficult to open or convert because standard image converters cannot parse and render complex bioinformatics nodes. Often, only the original graphing software can properly read and export the data.
Convert.Guru analyzes your XGMML file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert XGMML file to CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, YML, TOML, INI, CFG, CONF, DAT, DB or SQL, you can use Cytoscape or similar software from the "Network Graph Data Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert DBF, XML, SQLITE, XLSX, SQL, TSV, ACCDB, YAML, MDB, CSV, ODS or JSON files to XGMML, try Cytoscape or another comparable tool in the "Network Graph Data Storage" category.
The XGMML Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our XGMML converter.
