Graphviz4S

This project is a simply implementation of the python Graphviz library functionality in Scala.

It tries to keep the interface the same with the python Graphviz library, which facilitates the creation and rendering of graph descriptions in the DOT language of the Graphviz graph drawing software(repo) from Scala.

Installation

To render the generated DOT source code, you also need to install Graphviz.

Make sure that the directory containing the dot executable is on your systems' path.

If you are using ubuntu, use the following command to install graphviz:

sudo apt-get install graphviz

Build

bash scripts/build.sh

Run examples

bash scripts/run_all_examples.sh

Quickstart

Create a graph object:

import com.liangdp.graphviz4s.Digraph
val dot = new Digraph(comment = "The Round Table")

Add nodes and edges:

dot.node("A", "King Arthur")
dot.node("B", "Sir Bedevere the Wise")
dot.node("L", "Sir Lancelot the Brave")

import scala.collection.mutable.Map
dot.edges(Array(("A", "B"), ("A", "L")))
dot.edge("B", "L", attrs = Map("constraint" -> "false"))

Check the generated source code:

println(dot.source())
// The Round Table
digraph {
	"A" [label="King Arthur" ]
	"B" [label="Sir Bedevere the Wise" ]
	"L" [label="Sir Lancelot the Brave" ]
		A -> B
		A -> L
		B -> L [ constraint=false]
}

Save and render the source code, optionally view the result:

dot.render(fileName = "round-table.gv", directory = ".", view = true)
