DOT Language - Layout Programs

Layout Programs

The DOT language defines a graph, but does not provide facilities for rendering the graph. There are several programs that can be used to render, view, and manipulate graphs in the DOT language:

  • Graphviz - A collection of libraries and utilities to manipulate and render graphs
  • Canviz - a JavaScript library for rendering dot files.
  • Grappa - A Java wrapper for using the Graphviz libraries.
  • Beluging - A Python & Google Cloud based viewer of DOT and Beluga extensions.
  • Tulip can import dot files for analysis
  • OmniGraffle can import a subset of DOT, producing an editable document. (The result cannot be exported back to DOT, however.)
  • ZGRViewer, a GraphViz/DOT Viewer link
  • VizierFX, A Flex graph rendering library link
  • Gephi - an interactive visualization and exploration platform for all kinds of networks and complex systems, dynamic and hierarchical graphs

Famous quotes containing the word programs:

    [The Republicans] offer ... a detailed agenda for national renewal.... [On] reducing illegitimacy ... the state will use ... funds for programs to reduce out-of-wedlock pregnancies, to promote adoption, to establish and operate children’s group homes, to establish and operate residential group homes for unwed mothers, or for any purpose the state deems appropriate. None of the taxpayer funds may be used for abortion services or abortion counseling.
    Newt Gingrich (b. 1943)
