HTML Perl module ASCII SVG render graphs shaped nodes

Graph::Easy Description

Convert or render graphs (as ASCII, HTML, SVG or via Graphviz) Graph::Easy is a Perl module that lets you generate graphs consisting of various shaped nodes connected by edges (with optional labels).SYNOPSIS use Graph::Easy; my $graph = Graph::Easy->new(); # make a fresh copy of the graph my $new_graph = $graph->copy(); $graph->add_edge ('Bonn', 'Berlin'); # will not add it, since it already exists $graph->add_edge_once ('Bonn', 'Berlin'); print $graph->as_ascii( ); # prints: # +------+ +--------+ # | Bonn | --> | Berlin | # +------+ +--------+ ##################################################### # alternatively, let Graph::Easy parse some text: my $graph = Graph::Easy->new( ' -> ' ); ##################################################### # slightly more verbose way: my $graph = Graph::Easy->new(); my $bonn = $graph->add_node('Bonn'); $bonn->set_attribute('border', 'solid 1px black') my $berlin = $graph->add_node('Berlin'); $graph->add_edge ($bonn, $berlin); print $graph->as_ascii( ); # You can use plain scalars as node names and for the edge label: $graph->add_edge ('Berlin', 'Frankfurt', 'via train'); # adding edges with attributes: my $edge = Graph::Easy::Edge->new(); $edge->set_attributes( { label => 'train', style => 'dotted', color => 'red', } ); # now with the optional edge object $graph->add_edge ($bonn, $berlin, $edge); # raw HTML section print $graph->as_html( ); # complete HTML page (with CSS) print $graph->as_html_file( ); # Other possibilities: # SVG (possible after you installed Graph::Easy::As_svg): print $graph->as_svg( ); # Graphviz: my $graphviz = $graph->as_graphviz(); open $DOT, '|dot -Tpng -o graph.png' or die ("Cannot open pipe to dot: $!"); print $DOT $graphviz; close $DOT; # Please see also the command line utility 'graph-easy'It can read and write graphs in a varity of formats, as well as render them via its own grid-based layouter.Since the layouter works on a grid (manhattan layout), the output is most usefull for flow charts, network diagrams, or hierarchy trees.
