简介
关于Graphviz: Graphviz(英文:Graph Visualization Software的缩写)是一个由AT&T实验室启动的开源工具包,用于绘制DOT语言脚本描述的图形。它也提供了供其它软件使用的库。Graphviz是一个自由软件,其授权为Eclipse Public License。其Mac版本曾经获得2004年的苹果设计奖。
Graphviz是大名鼎鼎的贝尔实验室的几位牛人开发的一个画图工具。它的理念和一般的“所见即所得”的画图工具不一样,是“所想即所得”。
Graphviz提供了dot语言来编写绘图脚本。dot的语言专门用来定义关系。我们必须先在某个文件中写上代码,最后调用命令行生成。没有找到可边写边改的集成环境。
关于dot的具体语法参看官方文档,这里就不多说。这里仅用来入门。
http://www.graphviz.org/
另外也有专门渲染DOT脚本的浏览器xdo,直接在窗口渲染,不需要生成图像文件,强烈推荐。
很多图都比较适合用DOT来定义,比如流程图,组织关系图,类图,状态转换图等等。
在刚接触DOT不到3天的时间里,我就分别在代码性能优化,协议栈状态机定义两件事情用到了DOT,感觉非常方便。
性能优化:gprof可以对一个程序运行时进行profiling,生成报告,包括函数调用关系,每个函数被调用的次数,花费的时间。但这个报告是文本的,不够直观。可以通过一个gprof2dot.py脚本,把gprof的输出翻译成一个DOT文件,然后再用Graphviz转成图片或者直接用xdot来查看。
安装graphviz
sudo apt-get install graphviz graphviz-doc
这样会安装dot语言的执行文件,执行文件路径在
/usr/bin/dot
绘图方法
先根据业务需要编写dot文件,参见下面的示例部分,然后编译运行。输出格式可以根据自己的需要来灵活选择
例如test.dot, 产生图片:
dot -Tpng test.dot -o test.png
dot -Tsvg test.dot -o test.svg
dot test.dot -Tpdf -o test.pdf
典型示例(更多例子可以参见官方文档)
1.Fancy Graph
- digraph G {
- edge[fontname="FangSong"];
- node[peripheries=2, fontname="FangSong"];
- size="16, 16";
- main[shape="box"];
- main[label="从这里开始"]
- main->parse[weight=8]
- parse->execute;
- main->init[style=dotted];
- main->cleanup;
- execute->{make_string; printf;}
- edge[color=red];
- init->make_string[label="1000次的感动"];
- main->printf[label="make a \n string"];
-
- node[shape=box,style=filled,color=".7 .3 1.0"];
- execute->compare;
- }

6.directed Graph
- digraph G {
- {a b c} -> {d e f g}
- }
![](https://img-blog.csdn.net/20140518072113203?watermark/2/text/aHR0cDovL2Jsb2cuY3Nkbi5uZXQvdGFvXzYyNw==/font/5a6L5L2T/fontsize/400/fill/I0JBQkFCMA==/dissolve/70/gravity/SouthEast)
7.化学分子式
- graph s{
- C_0 -- H_0;
- C_0 -- H_1;
- C_0 -- H_2;
- C_0 -- C_1;
- C_1 -- H_3;
- C_1 -- H_4;
- C_1 -- H_5;
- }
8.函数调用关系图
- digraph s {
- node [shape=ellipse, style=filled, color="#40e0d0"];
- edge [color="#606060", penwidth=3];
- main [color=green];
- main -> init[color=blue, label="hello, I'm \llable of edge"];
- main -> mainloop;
- main -> exit;
- init -> a_init;
- init -> b_init;
- init -> c_init;
- mainloop -> select;
- }
这个是有向图(directional graph), 脚本的第一个词需要换成"digraph"。常用的属性有color, style, shape, penwidth, label等。label中
\r, \l, \n
都表示换行,但对齐方式分别是
右对齐,左对齐,居中
。
9.ATS中插件collapsed_connection的流程图,一个更复杂的例子
- digraph collapsed_connection {
- accept -> TS_HTTP_POST_REMAP_HOOK;
- TS_HTTP_POST_REMAP_HOOK -> "check request method (and header)";
-
- "check request method (and header)" -> "get CacheUrl hash_key using MurmurHash3" [label = "GET request (required_header present)"];
- "check request method (and header)" -> "pass request" [label = "others"];
- "get CacheUrl hash_key using MurmurHash3" -> "check hash_key from hashTable";
- "check hash_key from hashTable" -> "lock URL in hashTable" [label = "not found"];
- "check hash_key from hashTable" -> "pass request" [label = "found, but marked pass"];
- "check hash_key from hashTable" -> "check hash_key from hashTable" [label = "locked or unable to get mutex, wait insert_lock_retry_time"];
- "lock URL in hashTable" -> TS_HTTP_CACHE_LOOKUP_COMPLETE_HOOK;
- TS_HTTP_CACHE_LOOKUP_COMPLETE_HOOK -> "remove URL from hashTable(1)" [label = "hit_fresh or skipped"];
- TS_HTTP_CACHE_LOOKUP_COMPLETE_HOOK -> "request origin server" [label = "miss or stale"];
- "request origin server" -> TS_HTTP_READ_RESPONSE_HDR_HOOK;
- TS_HTTP_READ_RESPONSE_HDR_HOOK -> "remove URL from hashTable(1)" [label = "not 200/OK response"];
- TS_HTTP_READ_RESPONSE_HDR_HOOK -> "check read_while_writer config";
- "check read_while_writer config" -> "remove URL from hashTable(1)" [label = "enabled"];
- "check read_while_writer config" -> TS_HTTP_TXN_CLOSE_HOOK [label = "disabled"];
- TS_HTTP_READ_RESPONSE_HDR_HOOK -> "mark pass in hashTable" [label = "non-cacheable"];
- "remove URL from hashTable(1)" -> TS_HTTP_TXN_CLOSE_HOOK;
- "mark pass in hashTable" -> TS_HTTP_TXN_CLOSE_HOOK;
- "pass request" -> TS_HTTP_TXN_CLOSE_HOOK;
- TS_HTTP_TXN_CLOSE_HOOK -> "remove URL from hashTable(2)";
- TS_HTTP_TXN_CLOSE_HOOK -> "check keep_pass_record_time" [label = "non-cacheable"];
- "check keep_pass_record_time" -> "add into KeepPassList" [label = "> 0"];
- "check keep_pass_record_time" -> "remove URL from hashTable(2)" [label = "= 0"];
- "add into KeepPassList" -> "transaction close";
- "remove URL from hashTable(2)" -> "transaction close";
- "transaction close" -> accept;
-
- TS_HTTP_POST_REMAP_HOOK [shape = box];
- TS_HTTP_CACHE_LOOKUP_COMPLETE_HOOK[shape = box];
- TS_HTTP_READ_RESPONSE_HDR_HOOK [shape = box];
- TS_HTTP_TXN_CLOSE_HOOK [shape = box];
-
- "check request method (and header)" [shape = diamond];
- "check hash_key from hashTable" [shape = diamond];
- "check read_while_writer config" [shape = diamond];
- "check keep_pass_record_time" [shape = diamond];
- }
注意事项
1.中文乱码
graphviz默认情况下对中文支持不好,如果代码中有中文,则必须使用UTF-8的格式保存文件,并且在代码中指定字体。
进一步深究可以查看官方文档
