edges: new vis.DataSet(graph.edges)
};
var options = {
physics: false
};
var network = new vis.Network($container[0] , data, options);
Warning! Don't forget to set physics: false

However, if you get some profit from this or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are few ways you can do it:
