Graphviz¶
Usage¶
Graphviz is used to create the diagrams outputted by the publish-dot command. Since the publish-sphinx command embeds graphs created by the publish-dot command into the generated documentation, Graphviz is needed to run that publisher too. The publish-uml command also uses Graphviz to determine node placements when outputting non-normative graphs.
Download¶
- Go here to download Graphviz and follow installation instructions.
- If using Windows, you can add dot.exe to your command path. This allows you to use the publish-dot, publish-sphinx and publish-uml commands without needing to specify the location of the executable file.
