USAGE

INTRODUCTION

       gv_php  is  a  dynamically  loaded  extension  for  php  that provides access to the graph
       facilities of graphviz.

COMMANDS

       New graphs

       New empty graph
              graph_handle gv::graph (name);
              graph_handle gv::digraph (name);
              graph_handle gv::strictgraph (name);
              graph_handle gv::strictdigraph (name);

       New graph from a dot-syntax string or file
              graph_handle gv::readstring (string);
              graph_handle gv::read (string filename);
              graph_handle gv::read (channel);

       Add new subgraph to existing graph
              graph_handle gv::graph (graph_handle, name);

       New nodes

       Add new node to existing graph
              node_handle gv::node (graph_handle, name);

       New edges

       Add new edge between existing nodes
              edge_handle gv::edge (tail_node_handle, head_node_handle);

       Add a new edge between an existing tail node, and a named head node which will be  induced
       in the graph if it doesn't already exist
              edge_handle gv::edge (tail_node_handle, head_name);

       Add  a new edge between an existing head node, and a named tail node which will be induced
       in the graph if it doesn't already exist
              edge_handle gv::edge (tail_name, head_node_handle);

       Add a new edge between named tail  and head nodes which will be induced in  the  graph  if
       they don't already exist
              edge_handle gv::edge (graph_handle, tail_name, head_name);

       Setting attribute values

       Set value of named attribute of graph/node/edge - creating attribute if necessary

              string gv::setv (node_handle, attr_name, attr_value);
              string gv::setv (edge_handle, attr_name, attr_value);

       Set value of existing attribute of graph/node/edge (using attribute handle)
              string gv::setv (graph_handle, attr_handle, attr_value);
              string gv::setv (node_handle, attr_handle, attr_value);
              string gv::setv (edge_handle, attr_handle, attr_value);

              string gv::getv (node_handle, attr_handle);
              string gv::getv (edge_handle, attr_handle);

              string gv::nameof (node_handle);
              string gv::nameof (attr_handle);
