cargo-graph
A cargo
subcommand for building GraphViz DOT files of dependency graphs. This subcommand was originally based off and inspired by the project cargo-dot by Max New
Demo
Let's say we wanted to build a dependency graph of cargo-count but we wanted optional dependencies to use red dashed lines and black boxes, and regular (aka "build") dependencies to use orange lines to green diamonds, one would run the following.
NOTE: GraphViz dot
needs to be installed to produce the .PNG from the dotfile
$ cargo graph --optional-line-style dashed --optional-line-color red --optional-shape box --build-shape diamond --build-color green --build-line-color orange > cargo-count.dot
$ dot -Tpng > rainbow-graph.png cargo-count.dot
NOTE: It's also possible to run cargo graph [options] | dot [options] > [file]
instead of individual commands
The first command produces a GraphViz DOT file which looks like this:
digraph dependencies {
N0[label="cargo-count",shape=diamond,color=green];
N1[label="ansi_term",shape=box];
N2[label="clap",shape=diamond,color=green];
N3[label="clippy",shape=box];
N4[label="glob",shape=diamond,color=green];
N5[label="regex",shape=diamond,color=green];
N6[label="tabwriter",shape=diamond,color=green];
N7[label="aho-corasick",shape=diamond,color=green];
N8[label="memchr",shape=diamond,color=green];
N9[label="bitflags",shape=diamond,color=green];
N10[label="strsim",shape=diamond,color=green];
N11[label="unicode-normalization",shape=diamond,color=green];
N12[label="libc",shape=diamond,color=green];
N13[label="regex-syntax",shape=diamond,color=green];
N14[label="unicode-width",shape=diamond,color=green];
N0 -> N1[label="",style=dashed,color=red];
N0 -> N2[label="",color=orange];
N0 -> N3[label="",style=dashed,color=red];
N0 -> N4[label="",color=orange];
N0 -> N5[label="",color=orange];
N0 -> N6[label="",color=orange];
N7 -> N8[label="",color=orange];
N2 -> N1[label="",style=dashed,color=red];
N2 -> N9[label="",color=orange];
N2 -> N10[label="",color=orange];
N3 -> N11[label="",color=orange];
N8 -> N12[label="",color=orange];
N5 -> N7[label="",color=orange];
N5 -> N8[label="",color=orange];
N5 -> N13[label="",color=orange];
N6 -> N14[label="",color=orange];
}
The second command produces a PNG image of the graph which looks like:
Now, why someone would do that to a graph is a different story...but it's possible :)
Installing
cargo-graph
can be installed with cargo install
$ cargo install cargo-graph
This may require a nightly version of cargo
if you get an error about the install
command not being found. You may also compile and install the traditional way by following the instructions below.
Compiling
Follow these instructions to compile cargo-count
, then skip down to Installation.
- Ensure you have current version of
cargo
and Rust installed - Clone the project
$ git clone https://github.com/kbknapp/cargo-graph && cd cargo-graph
- Build the project
$ cargo build --release
(NOTE: There is a large performance difference when compiling without optimizations, so I recommend always using--release
to enable to them) - Once complete, the binary will be located at
target/release/cargo-graph
Installation and Usage
All you need to do is place cargo-graph
somewhere in your $PATH
. Then run cargo graph
anywhere in your project directory. For full details see below.
Linux / OS X
You have two options, place cargo-graph
into a directory that is already located in your $PATH
variable (To see which directories those are, open a terminal and type echo "${PATH//:/\n}"
, the quotation marks are important), or you can add a custom directory to your $PATH
Option 1
If you have write permission to a directory listed in your $PATH
or you have root permission (or via sudo
), simply copy the cargo-graph
to that directory # sudo cp cargo-graph/usr/local/bin
Option 2
If you do not have root, sudo
, or write permission to any directory already in $PATH
you can create a directory inside your home directory, and add that. Many people use $HOME/.bin
to keep it hidden (and not clutter your home directory), or $HOME/bin
if you want it to be always visible. Here is an example to make the directory, add it to $PATH
, and copy cargo-graph
there.
Simply change bin
to whatever you'd like to name the directory, and .bashrc
to whatever your shell startup file is (usually .bashrc
, .bash_profile
, or .zshrc
)
$ mkdir ~/bin
$ echo "export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin" >> ~/.bashrc
$ cp cargo-graph~/bin
$ source ~/.bashrc
Windows
On Windows 7/8 you can add directory to the PATH
variable by opening a command line as an administrator and running
C:\> setx path "%path%;C:\path\to\cargo-graph\binary"
Otherwise, ensure you have the cargo-graph
binary in the directory which you operating in the command line from, because Windows automatically adds your current directory to PATH (i.e. if you open a command line to C:\my_project\
to use cargo-graph
ensure cargo-graph.exe
is inside that directory as well).
Options
There are a few options for using cargo-graph
which should be somewhat self explanatory.
