RFE: machine readbale dependency graph

[hroncok]

Could I please get the dependency graph in a machine-readable form, preferably a single json file?

Clicking in the web app to explore a complex dep tree ultimately leads me to loops and dead ends. I basically get lost. I need the data, so I can visualize my own subgraph of what I need to see.

What needs to be in the data:

• components/source packages
• binary packages
• binary packages mapped to source packages (edges from binary packages to source packages)
• requires (edges from binary packages to binary packages)
• buildrequires (edges from source packages to binary packages)
• binary packages and/or components mapped to workloads
• information about unwanted-ness for each binary package and/or component

Thanks.

In many places, you can change html to json in the URL and get some data. That works in workloads and (if I remember correctly) in views as well. Probably doesn't have everything you're asking for, but it does have something.

For plain lists scroll down on this page: https://tiny.distro.builders/view--view-eln.html

Otherwise everything you're asking for sounds reasonable and shouldn't be hard, I'll have a look. In the mean time, would you please help me identify what you found and what's missing?

I have this on my TODO but it has low urgency, it might take a while.

I'll let you know here if I'm faster!
