About
=====

`pydot`:

  - is an interface to [Graphviz][1]
  - can parse and dump into the [DOT language][2] used by GraphViz,
  - is written in pure Python,

and [`networkx`][3] can convert its graphs to `pydot`.
Development occurs at [GitHub][11] (under branch `dev`),
where you can report issues and contribute code.


Installation
============

From [PyPI][4] using [`pip`][5]:

`pip install pydot`

From source:

`python setup.py install`


Dependencies
============

- [`pyparsing`][6]: used only for *loading* DOT files,
  installed automatically during `pydot` installation.

- GraphViz: used to render graphs as PDF, PNG, SVG, etc.
  Should be installed separately, using your system's
  [package manager][7], something similar (e.g., [MacPorts][8]),
  or from [its source][9].
