networkx does not compute the network diameter for directed graphs/networks. one way to calculate diameter is to use the concept to longest path length. I suggest you use longest path length for diameter calculation in case of directed graphs. check the link below for more info:

Intuitively, to find the diameter of a graph, first find the shortest path between each pair of vertices. The greatest length of any of these paths is the diameter of the graph. In other words, you should calculate the longest path between each node pairs in the network.
