Visualize Graphs
Explore how to visualize graphs in Elixir by rendering DOT files with Graphviz and OmniGraffle. Learn to create image files from graph descriptions using Elixir's System.cmd function and custom modules, enhancing your ability to manage and present graph data effectively.
We'll cover the following...
We’ve got a couple of ways to render these DOT files. We can either use the Graphviz tools or else use a generic drawing package, such as OmniGraffle for the Mac or the GraphVizio plug-in for Visio on Windows. Here, we’ll look at rendering using Graphviz and OmniGraffle.
Render with Graphviz
Graphviz is an open-source graph visualization software developed by AT&T Labs that is distributed with a number of layout programs.
Graphviz ships with a number of tools for rendering DOT files. Typically these will be ...
