       v.net.components --help
       v.net.components       [-a]       input=name         [arc_layer=string]
       [node_layer=string]     [arc_column=name]    [arc_backward_column=name]
       [node_column=string]     output=name    method=string     [--overwrite]
       [--help]  [--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       -a
           Add points on nodes

       --overwrite
           Allow output files to overwrite existing files

       --help
           Print usage summary

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       input=name [required]
           Name of input vector map
           Or data source for direct OGR access

       arc_layer=string
           Arc layer
           Vector  features can have category values in different layers. This
           number determines which layer to use. When used with direct OGR ac-
           cess this is the layer name.
           Default: 1

       node_layer=string
           Node layer
           Vector  features can have category values in different layers. This
           number determines which layer to use. When used with direct OGR ac-
           cess this is the layer name.
           Default: 2

       arc_column=name
           Arc forward/both direction(s) cost column (number)

       arc_backward_column=name
           Arc backward direction cost column (number)

       node_column=string
           Node cost column (number)

       output=name [required]
           Name for output vector map

       method=string [required]
           Type of components
           Options: weak, strong
           weak: Weakly connected components
           strong: Strongly connected components

DESCRIPTION
       v.net.components  computes the weakly and strongly connected components
       in a network.

NOTES
       Two nodes, u and v are in the  same  strongly  connected  component  if
       there  are directed paths from u to v and from v to u. The nodes are in
       the same weakly connected component if, ignoring edge directions, there
       is a path between them.

       The  type of components is specified by method parameter.  v.net.compo-
       nents creates a table and links it to layer 1. This table contains only
       two  integer  columns:  cat and comp. If a point or both endpoints of a
       line belong to the same component then the point/line is written to the
       output  map  and  appropriate information is stored in the table. If -a
       flag is set then new points are added  on  the  nodes  without  points.
       These points have category numbers larger than any category used in the
       input map.

       One-way roads can be defined by assigning a cost of -1 to the appropri-
       ate  cost column (arc_column or arc_backward_column). This affects only
       strongly connected components. Network nodes can be closed by assigning
       a cost of -1 to the node cost column. All nodes with a cost < 0 can not
       be traversed and are end points, while all nodes with a cost ≥ 0 can be
       traversed.  This affects both weakly and strongly connected components.

EXAMPLES
       Any  road  network  should  form a single strongly connected component.
       Otherwise, it is impossible to travel between some places.
