✒️ dot_ix

🚧 This is very much a work in progress

Try it yourself: (demo_1, demo_2)

Original concept:

2023-07-17_dot_ix_demo.mp4

Usage

Add the following to Cargo.toml

dot_ix = "0.5.0"

# Enables the `FlexDiag` web component.
dot_ix = { version = "0.5.0", features = ["flex_diag"] }

# Enables server side dot generation.
# Requires graphviz `dot` to be installed server side.
dot_ix = { version = "0.5.0", features = ["server_side_graphviz"] }

Development

cargo install cargo-leptos

# Then, one of:
# * client side rendering -- uses WASM compiled graphviz to generate the graph.
cargo leptos watch
# * server side rendering -- runs `dot` on the server to generate the graph.
#   Requires `graphviz` to be installed.
cargo leptos watch --features "server_side_graphviz" -v

For server side rendering, the "server_side_graphviz" feature needs to be passed in separately because that feature still needs to be enabled for the lib compilation, i.e.

• server side rendering:
  • lib features: "server_side_graphviz"
  • bin features: "ssr,server_side_graphviz"
• client side rendering:
  • lib features: ""
  • bin features: ""

To Do

🦜 Feel free to do any of these -- this project isn't my main focus, but I should be responsive in reviewing / merging things.

• Split crate into multiple subcrates.
• Split app::info_graph::InfoGraph into smaller components.
• Probably get rid of main.scss and replace with tailwind classes.
• Inline styles in SVG.
• Inline font in SVG styles.
• Change rt/into_graphviz_dot_src/info_graph.rs to write to a buffer, instead of individual strings.
• Take each node with a "type".
• Take in tailwindcss classes to attach to node types.
• Take in theme / merge with default theme.
• Split dot_ix library from the web app, so it can be embedded in other apps.
• GitHub Actions / automated testing / releasing / publishing.
• Playground: Render pre-written graphs
  • Graph in URL
  • Link to gist
